"Press F1 to continue"...Monitor shows an error message and asks to do this at every startup?

I don't know if this link will help you or not, but it IS in your BIOS.

Or, try this:

Something is fishy in the bios settings. If you can't find the problem, look for an option called 'Reset configuration data'. Enable it and reboot. After the reboot, the option will be automatically turned off.

if it's a windows operating system it says press F1 to go into the settings of things like date + time and says 'Press F1 to Continue".

But if you don't press F1 it doesn't matter, the computer just boots up. Does that help?

Are there any USB devices plugged in? Whenever I have my external drive plugged in and reboot, I have to hit f1 because the BOOT Priority has changed. If yes, then make sure they are off when restarting.

Another thing comes to mind is perhaps it's a setting in BIOS.

This Bios has become confused. Uninstall the last and or subsequent hardware that you installed and see if that helps

That is why I will never downgrade to windows vista. Veni, Vidi, Vomiti Vista

That happened to me but I had to press enter. My parents said that you just shut your computer down wrong. Try going to menu and choose shut down computer. It works for me!! :)

so press f1 to continue

Fit another motherboard (bios) battery , very cheap . CR2032 . easy fix.

Oh you got that? What is shown on a blue or black background? I dread seeing that. It means that your computer is basically dead. You'll need to reboot it. It usually means that you'll lose everything.

call the company of your monitor and tell them your problem...they have to have a sollution to that
