Hi,
I have a Sony laptop that will not boot. I get the initial Sony Vaio start up screen. After then I get something like:
PXE-E61: Media test failure. check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM

I can not do anything like that, when turn on the computer it goes directly to a black screen even if I press F2. The screen has the information:

Pre-boot execution Environment (PXE) v2.1
..some other stuff
PXE-E61: Media test failure. check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM
