CLIENT MAC ADDR

I have a Dimension 8200 and when I try to boot-up I get this:

 

CLIEN MAC ADDR:  00 02 B3AAF0D7        GUID:  44454C4C-3300-1033-8033-

                                                                                                     -CAC04F4C3131

PXE-E53:  No boot filename received

PXE-M0F:  Exiting Intel Boot Agent

            Strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility

 

What does this mean and how do I fix this so that my computer will boot.

Which operating system are you using?  If XP, then boot from the CD, enter the Recovery Console (press R at first stable screen).  Once you are logged on to Windows, then run FIXBOOT and after that FIXMBR.  If by chance the Recovery Console does not recognize a version of Windows on your machine, then your only recourse will be to do a re-install of Windows.  If it is not XP (or 2K), good luck.

I do have XP.  So since I have XP this should work.

You system is trying to boot thru the network card.  This is an indication that it cannot "see" the hard drive.  Boot to the BIOS & check to see the HDD is actually identified.  If it is listed as UNKNOWN, then turn on Caps Lock, Num Lock & Scroll lock, press ALT+E then ALT+F then ALT+B to reboot & see if system boots to the HDD.

If you still canot get the HDD detected, I'd contact tech support.
