Question Just built my comp, can someone help me?

Hi, I just finished putting my computer together
I have:
Intel Q6600, Gigabyte DS3 Mobo, 2 Gb patriot ram, etc
For some reason, when i start the computer, I get the message, "Disk boot failure, Please insert System disk and press enter"
I really need to finish this build tonight so id really appreciate it if someone could help me solve this issue. Thanks a lot - Charlie

The build is complete. Now you just need to find a Windows disc and install Windows on the computer.

after you put in window disk make sure to boot from disk from there you will be about to make a partition, then install windows in the partition you made
