if you are getting the repss F1 to continue then there is something wrong in your bios. the time may be set wrong, cpu checksum error, etc or your cmos battery may just be going bad. if none of this is the case, just go to the bios and disable the halt on error setting

It is probably the drive configuration in bios...why not reset the optimum default settings, hit F10 and then reboot.

Usually there is an error message just before the line "press F1 to continue". Wouldn't you like to share that message?
