I've had this same problem before and it turned out to be a bad power supply.
Everytime I try to start my desktop, the BIOs runs through and then outputs "No bootable devices found, strike F1 to try again or F2 to enter setup."
I tried going to setup and booting from my CD-ROM but I noticed that the set up page indicates that the devices aren't installed. I would love to try to use a diskette but I don't have a boot disk made.
Plus, I don't see how that would solve my problem even if I was able to reboot.
The only thing I can figure is that I got a virus. The desktop has been working perfectly for over 3 months ever since I initially solved the issue.
How do I fix this now?
I have a Dell Dimension 4300 desktop with a WD 120 GB HD and Thermaltake 420W PSU running on Windows Xp Home edition.
