Computer boots to 'Asus Express Gate' and can't find my boot device
Hi all, and thanks for taking the time to read this topic.
As the title explains, whenever I turn my computer on it goes to something called 'Asus Express Gate' at which point I'm presented with a few options, one of them to select a boot device by pressing F8. The other options I'm presented with are to go into BIOS Setup, Display BIOS POST Message, or Ez Flash 2. I didn't want to mess about with any of them really as I've no clue as to what they do.
Anyway, so I press F8 to go into the boot menu and I'm then presented with a screen asking me to select a boot device, or press ESC to boot using defaults. The only device that comes up is "CDROM:SM-SONY BD-ROM BDU-X1" which I think is my blueray disk drive. I didn't want to boot from that, so I press ESC instead. This then presents me with a black screen stating the following: "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key."
So this is pretty much where I'm stuck, and I'd really appreciate any help.
Cheers,
Alex.
