    operating system not found
    « on: August 10, 2009, 09:05:01 AM »
    Thank you for any help.

    I been having trouble with my gateway T-series laptop. When turned on I get the screen for bios settings, boot menu, and Lan Boot. It stays on this screen. If I go to F12 Lan Boot a message comes up:
    PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
    PXE-MOF: Exiting PXE ROM
    Operating System not found

    So I restarted with the Operating system disk (windows vista) in and then I get the problem of selecting driver to be installed. In the window there are none that can be selected. After clicking OK I get a message of:  No device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click OK.

    Thank you for any help or suggestions, Dan

    Go to BIOS. Make sure, that the boot order reads: floppy, CD, HD
    Disable Boot from Network (wording is different on every machine, may say Integrated NIC, Network, PXE-xxxxxxx)
