Problem with my Power Edge 2800

Could anyone please explain to me why I get a "No DHCP or proxy DHCP was offered"?

I don't have any software on the server yet because I just got it, I'm trying to load windows server 2008 but I can't get past the problem the DHCP.


Can anyone provide some advice or help??

Where are you getting that message? What are you trying to do?

right at the start up. there's no OS on the machine. I'm also trying to install windows server 2008 on it because there isn't anything on it .-.

The message indicates you are booting to an incorrectly-configured PXE server (network boot). How are you trying to install? Boot directly to the DVD. Sounds like it is not booting to DVD ... check the boot sequence in the BIOS.
