He says you might be in a bit of trouble.

He says make sure there are no disks in the disk drives when you start it up.

(You know Costco at Southcenter fixes computers now. They are always very reputable, if you need it).

I was lucky to get Bios from Staples years ago when my computer crashed.

If you go online and search for your model# you might be able to retrive the bios!
