Hi,

So I started with trying to install Linux then when the graphics card did not work I was going to try and delete it. Then I deleted a needed partition... (I know this because I got Error: 22)

So after a month of ignoring it for the most part I found my recovery disk and tried installing it again, but it would get half way through then an error would come up.

I then turned it into my school's OIT department and they couldn't get it to work either.

But now when I turn on the computer it just says

[codebox]PXE - E61 : Media test failure, check cable
PXE - M0F : exiting NVIDIA Boot Agent[/codebox]

So now I'm running a Hard Disk Self Test because one of the past times I've called HP (my hard drive has crashed 2 times already. Once I was able to send it to HP before the warrenty was up, and I sent it to Office Depot the second time) he had me run this test so I thought I would just run it. So far its at 10% on Comprehensive, and its been about 25 minutes since I started. Estimated time 102 minutes.


Thansk guys!

This link is straight to the HP website for the HP Pavilion dv9000 CTO Notebook PC for the PXE-E61 error.

This link is on the HP website and explains how to change the boot order through BIOS. Sometimes just disabling the Network Adapter on boot-up helps.

Also try taking out the hard drive and sliding it back into place. Sometimes the hard drive becomes jarred loose from the connectors causing the PXE-E61 error.

Hope this helped out.
