Computer won't boot

when i start my computer up I see some random information about my computer (i.e. specifications and such, check-ups) until I reach a screen showing:
Silicon Integrated systems Corp. RAID BIOS Setting Utility v0.69
(c) 2003-2005 Silicon Integrated Systems Corp. All Rights Reserved

Press <Ctrl>+<S> to enter setup menu or <ESC> to skip waiting

Primary Master: _

Press Ctrl+S doesn't do anything, and yes, I checked if my keyboard is connected. Help me out please

Windows Xp Home btw

That comes before you boot into Windows. Can you get into the BIOS?

Are you using a USB keyboard?
