its prompt successfully restore system to start press any key. I press
enter key but my computer did not start . It prompts ?DISK BOOT FAILURE,
INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER?


It sounds to me like you've got your boot priority wrong, but I'll be honest
with you - I can't go further with this since I can't see the computer and
it's really unclear to me what the state of your computer is. Have a
knowledgeable friend or computer professional take a look.

Sorry that I was unable to help you.
