    Hello everyone,

    I guess I should mention first that I am a girl with zero computer knowledge, so if my question seems stupid to you- sorry!

    Today I woke up and saw this screen: photo (3).JPG

    Please tell me what to do. I tried researching the topic, but failed miserably. Any ideas?

    if you are trying to just boot up windows, go for the second option

    Option one is your disc drive for CDs and DVDs. Option two is your hard drive.

    Unless you were intending on booting from a disc, go with option two. :)

    Most computers, with a CD/DVD in, will try and boot or give you a selection. If there is a disk in the optical drive then remove it and then reboot.
