I'm getting very frustrated - running Phoenix 6.00 Bios, I want to boot from hard disk first and never from whatever might be plugged into the USB sockets. If say, I have an ipod or external hard drive plugged into the USB, bootup always looks there first and of course gives a "disk boot failure - insert system disk and press enter" message.

Here's how my bios is setup:

Main
- Primary Master - None (under which is Auto)
- Primary Slave - None (under which is Auto)
- Secondary Master -DVDRW drive
- Secondary Slave - DCD ROM drive
Advanced Bios
- First Boot Device - HD0
- Second Boot Device - disabled
- Third Boot Device - disabled
- Boot Other Device - disabled


Surely someone must know ? I'd really appreciate.
thanks
Simonides

This seems to be saying that you have no HD installed. Does this PC boot at all?
