hi,
BIOS is your Basic Input Output Settings.
yes, its the junk at the start.

when powering on hit F2 or DEL to enter the BIOS.

In theory yes.
you should also check the boot order within the BIOS to make sure whatever it is you want to boot from is 1st.

depending on what is on IDE0 + 1 (you could have CD/DVD ROM on either channel. check which channel is on which. for more advanced technicians these ports are labelled on the motherboard. normally as 1 or 2. put the one you want to boot from as the 1. or 1st boot device.

turn on the computer then quickly press F2 to enter bios mode.
at bios mode, on "main" area, choose "sata mode" then change from "AHCI" to "IDE"
