Hi...the set starts counting ram and will not go into setup.... then a blue screen with the words "Smart Card Authentication"     and below "Smart Card reader not present"        cannot get anywhere further     and this Hp 5800 does not even have a Smart card reader....heh what the heck     could it be the power supply?
