It seems most users with this problem have found success in disabling the 'Legacy USB support' in the bios menu before OS boot-up. If you have any USB boot settings enabled in your BIOS try disabling them and then try to boot. If the error keeps coming up re-enable it and try something else. Google is your best friend.

Newer computers do not allow you to boot without a keyboard?
You can boot with any computer without a keyboard unless you have multiple OS's installed and you set an option in your BIOS to where you have to select which OS you want to boot. False (to answer the question). Older computers refused to boot unless a keyboard was present. However, newer computers allow you to boot without a keyboard, and you can then plug in the keyboard after the boot. (taken from the "Notes" section - pg 458, seventh edition).

How do you restore back your operating system if it written on by another operating system?
Answer: Do you mean you want to restore an OS which was overwritten by another? You can't. Once all of the important files have been overwritten, there's nothing much you can do except reinstall the original operating system from scratch.Answer: A typical hard disk can only have one partition set to be the active boot partition, even though there may be boot programs on more than one partition.Sometimes during installation of an OS, the boot location is changed to the new partition/OS bootstrap program. This leaves the previous partition/OS bootstrap program inaccessible. This may be corrected by configuring a Dual-boot option in the new bootstrap program to reach both OS.You may be able to alter the active boot partition to reach the original bootstrap program, and add a dual-boot option to the original bootstrap program to reach both OS. I can recommend using the free/open software gPartEd to change this boot partition and SuperGrub to modify a GNU/Linux boot program.
