In Bios is there a floppy disk enabled? If so then highlight it and change it to none
Then click F10 to Save and Exit
Verify by pressing Y and then the system will reboot.
Let me know if this works

Can you get into windows at all? Is there any other option besides going into bios?
Was there any of the following before the issue started:
New software installed
New Hardware installed
Any Updates done downloaded
Anything downloaded like music or, movies or games

How old is the system
Make and Model
Memory amount
Hard Drive total space and free space

If taking the battery out and putting it back in is fixing the problem then you may have a low battery.
One of the first signs of a low Bios battery is losing time and Bios settings start to change.
