Check your BIOS settings, especially the boot sequence.

On an old machine like a Pentium II (over 10 years old), I would think that a battery replacement is indicated. If you still have your motherboard handbook, you can copy the BIOS settings from there. Otherwise, take it to a repair shop.

Can you help with this problem?
