Boot Device question
Good afternoon and happy holidays.
My son is doing his first PC build up, but the following message keep coming up on the screen:
Reboot and Select proper Boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key.
Can someone point me to the right direction in how to correct this issue and make sure that we can move forward with the build-up. Thank you for your support.

You need an OS for our new PC. You can create Windows 11 installation media here: https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11
Follow the directions to create a bootable flash drive, plug it into the PC. When you power it on, it'll boot to the installer automatically. If you need to activate it, you will need to purchase a license key.
