Hi!My computer just doesn't starts up.When i push the power button a " warning!Do not reset or turn off the computer,Bios is loading" and a funny noise coming from the machine,it's like a robot voice and trying to say something but can get it.And it just repeat itself.Is anyone has any idea what is it? The computer is a Amd athlon with Windows Xp.

Hi, if you cannot get the bios boot up screen then you have a hardware problem / (faulty hardware). The motherboard is beeping to let you know what hardware it could be...

Well you can try to reset the bios, then remove / disconnect all the computer parts (like HDD, RAM...) and install only the necessary components are required to boot up to see where you can get into the bios, if cannot replace each hardware component until you can. If that don’t knot work get a new motherboard...

Ok,i'll remove or disconnect all hardware,but I don't know how to reset the bios.Or is it reset itself when you disconnect everything? I'll try anyway.Thanks for your help.
