I recently got Highspeed internet access. However, whenever I reboot I get the following error message : PXE E32: TFTP open timeout" Nothing happens following this. But, If I turn off the Highspeed modem my PC boots fine??? Any ideas on how to correct this? Thanks.

Look in the BIOS for PXE boot and disable it, this means that the computer is recieving an ip address(from the modem) and timing out when trying to recieve a bot file. It should be in the BIOS Somewhere

Thanks for the Tip. However, I was unable to find PXE in the Bios anywhere? Have any ideas where it would be in the Bios? Thanks.

CHeck the network card settings and also look for it to be reffered to as "Wake On LAN"

If there is no reference to Boot LAN try disabling Boot Other.
