BIOS problems? Hit F2/DEL/etc to get you into the bios setup. If you can get into it, see your mobo manual for what to do.

I'd suggest for you to contact your system supplier, or motherboard supplier. You could also check your motherboard manual.

If you think you need to reset your bios, you could do that as well - but it may also be a battery failure, power supply, or other.

Does it make any sounds when you start it? If so, those beeps could tell you something about what's wrong - you have to check the motherboard manual to find out what it means.
