My laptop will not turn on completely. It powers up but I keep getting this message.
IDE #0 Error
Intel UNDI, PXE-2.1 (build 082)
Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation
For Realtek RTL8139(X)/8130/810X PCI Fast Ethernet Controller v2.13(021015)
PXE-E61: Media Test Failure, Check cable
PXE-Mof : Exiting PXE Rom
Insert System Disk in drive
Press any key when ready
I’m convinced it has to do with the new external iomega hard drive I installed. I tried unplugging the device and the screen still appears. I also inserted the CD that came with my laptop to system restore but after I follow the commands and press C for continue nothing happens. The screen stays the same so I assume the restore is working but maybe an hour or even 5 hours later, (I’ve tried it three times) the laptop goes blank.
Can anyone help me?
