happen for several reasons. The most common reason is physical hard disk failure due to a faulty or improperly connected hard disk. The error might also occur if a computer attempts to boot from a device and it cannot find https://forums.techguy.org/threads/solved-pxe-e61-media-test-failure-check-cable-error-message.104472/ the necessary boot files. The error can also appear because of incorrect BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) or CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) settings. The BIOS contains instructions about how the computer boots. The BIOS can only be updated or modified with BIOS updates. The CMOS contains the system settings and a CMOS battery powers it. The CMOS can be changed or modified by entering the CMOS setup. The setup for the BIOS and CMOS are the same, but the BIOS http://www.tech-faq.com/how-to-solve-pxe-e61-media-test-failure-check-cable-error.html and CMOS on the motherboard are not the same. Below are steps to access the BIOS and CMOS to help solve the error.

Check all of the hard disk's cable connections before trying anything else to solve the error. Make sure that no other storage device is connected to the computer. If there is a storage device connected, remove it. When computer start up is being attempted, enter the BIOS to see if the hard disk has been set up correctly and detected in BIOS. To enter the BIOS, follow these steps: a. The key that must be pressed to enter the BIOS varies depending on the computer model. The key is most likely the Del key or one of the F keys. Many computers refer to this as Entering Setup and Setup is just another term used for the BIOS. b. Try setting one's BIOS to any safe default settings. That might fix the error. Verify that the boot options in CMOS are setup correctly. Follow these steps to do thi
