No dhcp or proxy dhcp offered

no solution, just more info, not all movie channels.

Hard drive lost communications with motherboard. Remove it and reseat it. Check BIOS if it sees the HD.


Disable PXE boot in BIOS or remove from 1st boot option. This is a LAN (network) boot option. It can't find a DHCP server, that's why the media test failure is displayed. It's usually used to load an OS image from network.

If your computer is working fine then, disable PXE boot in BIOS or remove from 1st boot option. This is a LAN (network) boot option. It can't find a DHCP server, and is usually used to load an OS image.


For the most part not a real problem. More of a warning. Some corporate models use PXE to mass image.

This appears to be an indication of a failed hard drive. During the bootup process, your computer looks for bootable (accessible) devices including your hard drive, external drives (if any) and then any other possible mediums like network attached resources. If the hard drive is not available then this would explain your situation.

check the hdd cables and if it still does not register,try replacing it with a new one.good luck

your HDD is not detected by your system anymore.

This is a normal set of messages for a computer that is configured to attempt to boot off of a network server. Most home computers and laptops don't normally do this. If you never saw this before, booting from the network is probably the last try the computer makes before giving up. Basicially it is telling you that there is no valid boot device to start the computer from. It used to use your hard drive, but now it cannot because it has been disabled in the BIOS or the hard drive has died. You can check this by hitting the key to enter the BIOS Setup program (generally F10 or Del, it tells you when it is booting up) and making sure that the system does see your hard drive properly in the BIOS and ensuring that it is either first or second in the boot order.

Hello Halfwit, Your laptop is trying to boot from lan because it can't for some reasons to boot normally from the hard-disk. Try to listen if when you power on the laptop the hard-disk spins or makes any noises. If not there could be a problem with the connector that links it to the mainboard. If you hear a noise or the hard-disk spins then you may have a corrupted OS (windows) or some bad sectors problems. The best way to find out would be to try to boot the laptop by using a windows instalation cd. Boot from the cd-rom and check to see if the windows installer find your hard-disk and can copy files to it. You will need to change the boot order from bios to enable the cd-rom to boot first or enter some boot menu (if provided) and select " boot from cd-rom " or such thing. If you need more help with these please post back or contact me or other experts on the live chat function on this site. Good luck.
