Hi!
Just installed two new W.D. 160 HDD's. On both, when I boot, I get an
error message that states: press F1 to try again or F2 to get the
setup.
I press F1, and Windows XP boots normally.

Why the extra step? I could give the exact error message but I'm not
using that PC while writing this.

Help? Thanks!
Mike

Your system detected new hardware and wants you to press F2.
Next exit the bios saving changes and hopefully be done.
