|
My laptop is screwed badly. So heres the story:
I was on youtube. I clicked somebody's username so i can check there videos. Then suddenly, my laptop froze. It froze for about 10min before my laptop suddenly restarted. But it didn't go back to my dektop, it stayed on the screen that says "Toshiba, in touch with tommorow" and all that crap. Then, my laptop screen became black. Then words started appearing onto the black screen. This is what it said " PXE-E61: Media test failure check cable PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM" (it looks something like like that). And the message repeats itself over and over again.
Help please. Is my laptop broken? Do i have a virus? (Forgot to tell you, i have a windows vista)

| It sounds like the CMOS got somehow reset, or the hard drive failed, and it's trying to boot off of the NIC. Check the BIOS settings to make sure it's set to boot off the hard drive.
