ASUS A7V8X Wrong emulation when booting

Hi everyone,
Mate of mine is building his new system this morning but get's this message when trying to boot from floppy or bootable CDR. Any idea what this means ?

Hi casey,

System specs?

What OS is he trying to install?

Does he get a single good POST beep?

Thanks for replying back Cricket. We got if fixed. Caused by Zip drive, when we removed it the PC booted properly.
