Each time I boot up now, the computer goes to the first black screen and it starts booting up. Then it says "Slave driver incompatable" or something like that and then tells me to press f1 to continue...as soon as I do that it boots up, but it wont boot up on its own if you dont do that. What could the problem be? and How can I fix it?

Thanks guys :D

The driver for your secondary (slave) hard drive is incorrect. You'll have to reinstall it. Is this hard drive new? If so, it may be incompatible with your motherboard.

Have you installed anything new or updated anything ? Moved the computer around physically at all?
