System will not boot up




By jeff_long on Jan 26, 2009

" "
My computer has a black screen with a message''pxe boot file not found'' I've called the geek squad and they explain that sounds like my system is trying to boot from a network and not from the computer.

Clarification Request

amazing... they actually gave you correct advice... but i bet they wanted a fortune to fix it.... you need to change the boot up order ... before i explain it... do you know how to go into setup on that computer ?

Hi there
Hit F2 on boot up and go into the Bios settings, look for the boot order and change it to HDD as first boot device, hit F10 and save and exit.
The PC will restart and should boot into the hard drive.

Good luck
