It seems there was a typo. It is PXE-E61 Error. Actually the laptop is owned by a person who initiated the thread I have referenced with prev link.

It became clear to me that his laptop has a PXE ROM and in BIOS Network Booting is enabled so while doing a POST it tries to discover a host to boot from. Further on finding none it proceeds with Windows booting. Now is this an error that can be neglected or needs some serious probing?

You hould change booting sequence in BIOS.

1-Hard disk
2-CD Drive
3-Network (a.k.a boot agent)

There should be setting in BIOS for invoking network adapter ROM. Try disabling it.
