Mornin' from a dry, mild, overcast and dull South Yorkshire. No BYT or
any blue as yet and not looking too promising. Air temperature out
there is 9.0�ソスC (48.2�ソスF), barometric pressure falling again at 1006 mB
and relative humidity registering as 80%. WW reckons it is 9.4�ソスC,
1006.1 mB and 87% in Sheffield. Forecast is for cloudy all day with a
20% chance of any wet stuff and temperature to rise slowly to 10.6�ソスC
(51.1�ソスF) by tea time.
Have a good day one and all.
Calamitous start her though. Nettie is refusing to boot up and all I'm
getting is the following error message. White text on black background.
'Intel UNDI. PXE-2.1 (build 082)
Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation
For Realtek RTL8101E/8102E PCI-E Ethernet Controller v1.06 (080222)
PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-MOF: Exiting PXE ROM
Boot Failure
Press any key to continue.'
Haven't a clue what it's trying to tell me but there isn't any cable to
check and pressing any key has no effect whatsoever. All I seem to be
able to do is switch off power using the on/off button and run set up or
Boot menu using the Del or F11 keys. But nothing I do in those has any
effect. Has anyone any suggestions as to what I can try next? Nettie
is an Advent 4211C Netbook and has no DVD/CD or floppy drive. I have
been religiously creating weekly backups on an external Toshiba drive
(500GB) using Macrium, but that seems all a waste of time if the damn
m/c won't boot up at all. I feel like my right arm has been
amputated.. :( .
