    In the bios go to "Advanced mode" (f7), then in the boot tab, and deactivate the option "allow the use of F1 in case of error". So it starts you alone without the need to give that combination of keys.
    This error happens due to a problem with the disk.

      This works if you only want to stop seeing the problem, but it won't get rid of the problem as the motherboard still cannot replicate its last settings.

It’s a real head scratcher to me. The only thing I can think of is either replacing the cmos battery? 🤷‍♂️

    I left a very negative comment here the other day, for no good reason at all, and I’ve since deleted it because it just wasn’t right. I was angry at the problem and my inability to fix it or find a solution, and took it out on you because I’m an asshole and was looking to blame anything but myself.
    But that’s still no excuse at all to be a dick like I was, and I’m very sorry for everything I said. I sincerely hope you did not take any of it to heart. You didn’t deserve that at all, I doubt any of what I said was true, and I’m sure you know your stuff very well.
    Again, I’m very sorry for saying those stupid things and I wish you well. Good luck with your channel, your career, and your life in general, and please take care.

    @battomori1059 6 месяцев назад

    This is most unfortunate for me. Because of my living situation, I live in an RV with an inverter-generator that I have to power down every night before bed. So every night before I power down, I turn off my desktop computer and switch off the PSU then hit the power button to basically drain the motherboard. Before coming here, I had a strong feeling that it was my CMOS because of the symptoms, but failed to realize what I was doing every night to my desktop. My question is; Should I now just turn off my desktop as normal and leave it that way? Regardless, I am unable to keep power to my desktop at all times.
