"please enter setup to recover BIOS settings"

Hi Ztruker. The second scannow was clear, thanks. However, I'm still getting 'Please enter setup..' when I switch on. On the BIOS 'home screen' there's a Boot Order list with my HDD showing first. I pressed F8 to enter the Boot section but the order there seemed odd. I clicked Windows Boot Manager and I was back to normal. I'll have to investigate Boot Order further, I think.
