Some of you may remember that my pc just stopped turning on? Well it turned out to be the power supply so had a new one fitted and it got delivered abck the other day.
All seems to work fine but i get this funny message when i trun the computer on.
It says:
Primary device 1 not found
Secondary device 1 not found
Then asks me to press F1 to skip or F2 to setup
I dont know what it is when windows is loaded it all seems to work fine, the speakers arent functioning properly but all other things seem to work fine 
Any ideas?

when you get the message press F2
then you should see primary device1 and secondary device 1 just set them to none (probably on auto select)

Yeah go to setup, and you need to auto detect the hard drives ... hopefully they will be intact

Looks like your BIOS thinks there are hard drives installed which are not there, as mentioned you need to auto detect the list again and save that and it should remove the error.
Sound problem is probably completely separate, do a right click, Properties over My Computer and go to Hardware, Device Manager, see if there are any devices in there with question marks next to them.
