Somebody Please Help!!!

Hey all, I just built my first computer for the first time and I seem to be stuck. Everything runs well and I partitioned the harddrive and reset so that I could format the hard drive, but now it just says: "F1 . . . dos; Default: F?"

I can't type anything except for F1, F2, F3, F4, and Enter, and none of them do anything (except change "F?" to "F1", "F2", "F3", or "F4")

how can I get out of this loop and continue formatting my HDD!?!?!? I have tried Restarting and everything, it just starts the F? loop again!! somebody PLEASE HELP!!!

Let's see - you did not get any replies within 44 minutes so you crossposted. Please do not do that - this is a web forum, not a chatroom, you must be patient.

Your choice of topic is turning people off from helping you too. "Please help" and "help question" is totally meaningless when it comes to describing your problem.
