When editing the BIOS if you go into the BOOT ORDER menu, it is possible that the network card is not showing as an option. In order to get this option to display, go into the "integrated devices (legacyselect options)" and then select the network interface controller. Edit that even if it is On and change it to On w/PXE. After saving the changes to the BIOS, you need to power the computer off then on and then go into BIOS again, and the "integrated NIC" option should be available in the BOOT ORDER menu. Set this to be the first boot device in order to use PXE.

SOURCE: how to soft boot a dell 4600

I used the reset button on my last one whenever ctrl/alt/del failed to soft boot
my computer.

Here is what Dell Chat tells me to do if ctrl/alt/del doesn't work:

Turn off the system from the power button. Remove the plug to the
power supply from the back off the system tower.Then hold the power
button on the tower down for 10 secs ( with the power cord removed).
Reconnect the power cord and then restart the system.This time do a
normal shutdown.

Regards,
Pp

PXE-E61: Media test failure , check cable PXE-M?F : Exiting PXE ROM Operating system not found What can I do when my lap shows like this ? Give me an Detailed reply Urgently please.

Link below found using https://www.google.com gives steps to follow:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005740/boards-and-kits/desktop-boards.html

PXE-E61 Media Test Failure Error for Intel® Desktop Boards Documentation
Content TypeTroubleshooting
Article ID000005740
Last Reviewed11/01/2017 What are you seeing?
The following errors display when your Intel® Desktop Board starts:
  • PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable.
  • PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent.
Why are you seeing it?
PXE (Preboot eXecution Environment) is a boot environment that allows the Intel Desktop Board to boot up using a network interface, instead of booting from an installed hard drive. You can enable or disable PXE boot in the BIOS.
If PXE Boot is enabled in BIOS, the PXE-E61 and PXE-M0F errors can happen when both of these are true:
  • A bootable hard drive is not detected.
  • A network cable is not connected to the Intel Desktop Board.
How to fix it
If a drive is installed Check that the drive is detected in BIOS:
  1. Press F2 during boot to enter BIOS Setup.
  2. Go to the Boot menu.
  3. Check the Boot Drive Order.
  4. Press F10 to exit BIOS Setup.
If Boot Drive Order shows No Boot Drive:
  • Check that the drive is properly installed in the computer.
  • Try installing a different known good drive.
If PXE Boot is enabled in BIOS To check the BIOS option:
  1. Press F2 during boot to enter BIOS Setup.
  2. Go to the Boot menu and check for Boot to Network.
  3. Press F10 to exit BIOS Setup.
If you do not plan to boot to a network, disable this option.

If you do want to boot to a network, check that the network cable connection is working properly.

PXE-E61: Media Test Failure

Issue:

My computer gets this message when I try to boot it:

PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel PXE ROM.

Solution:

Your computer is set to boot from the network (PXE = Netboot).
Go to your BIOS and make sure you boot from your hard drive.

Remarks:

Shouldn't be enabled by default

Pxe rom boot

For PXE to work you need to enable boot from LAN this will then take you to your image server where you then deploy it. when it says no OS it means that it has gone through or skipped PXE.

when we switched to imaging with PXE we had trouble with a certain type of PC and to solve it we updated the BIOS

Server will not PXE boot

Many routers fail because they do not support the DHCP option. Any CISCO product running ISO 12.2 and above has that ability. Contact CISCO for the PXE assignment.

Prablon may loptop pxe-mof exiting broadcom pxe rom .broadcom undi pxe-2.1 v14.0.8

I think you hard drives failed. When the hard drive fails, the boot tries to find another way to boot up, so if the boot sequence lan is enabled, it will try to boot from the lan port (in your case broadcom pxe), when it can't boot from here either, it exits (exiting broadcom pxe). Replace your hard drive and re-install windows.

Your message indicates that Pxe Boot is enabled (boot from lan card), go to bios settings and from the list of first boot options, please select the hard disk (hdd) or Cd-rom as the first boot device, reboot your system and check whether this helps or not.
It is also necessary to disconnect and reconnect your dvd/cd rom's power cable and data cable.
If you don't know how to do, then just reset the bios settings to "load default" ...
Good luck.

In the BIOS, look in the boot options and take the "other devices" or "other" out of the boot sequence. Also check to see if boot from LAN is enabled. If it is, disable it. PXE is a protocol that will enable you to boot from a network drive or server. When it says that it failed, it is because it could not find an OS on the network
