My Acer Aspire 5315-2153 will not boot to the OS Windows Vista. I read somewhere that its trying to use Ethernet. It's asking for a boot disk. I don't have one. I do have a message at the start that says press f2 go to setup. Please help...

Can you boot into the bios? if so try this; Put 'Hard Drive C:' before 'Network' in the boot order
(If the hard drive does not appear in the boot order, that's why the PXE network boot agents start)
