System If Running In Fail-safe State
I recently moved my computer, and I believe that the jostling it took may have damaged it. When I now start it up the message I get is "IDE Channel 2 Master: None; IDE Channel 2 Slave: None; System is Running in Fail-Safe State; Please re-check - BIOS CMOS SETUP." I have to press F1 in order to boot up my computer. What can I do to solve this problem?
