    Make sure there is not a floppy disk in the floppy drive. If that is not the case, have you made any changes hardware wise recently?

    Well, if you have made no changes, I would suspect the hard drive has died or has issues.

    Usually if you hit F10 and save or not save BIOS settings, it will reboot.

    Also, in your BIOS, make sure the hard drive is set up in the boot order.

    Common BIOS boot order:

    CD-HD
    FDD-CD-HD
    HD-CD
