BIOS message Error initializing.
By connecting my Dimension 8400 PC, a message appears: Alert: Error initializing.
NIC PCI Express bridge.
NIC failure.
Strike the F1 key to continue ,
F2 to run the Setup
Utility.
Pressing F1 PC Dimension starts correctly and the screen works as seemingly always, that is fine. What I have noticed is that it does not work for me is the gateway integrated Ethernet in the Motherboar, so I connect to the Internet through a door Ethernet installed in a PCI slot and the operation is correct.
Can anyone guide what is the problem and its solution?
Thanks and greetings.

This information is in addition to the previously sent:
The integrated Ethernet network adapter in the Motherboard does not work ....
In the Device Manager, identifies the video adapter on the PCB PCI Express Ati Radeon correctly.
In device manager, only identifies a network adapter for a PCB that I am connected to a PCI slot, but does not include the Ethernet network adapter integrated into the Motehrboard ...... ie, as if there were no .....
I hope can help me on this matter.

He made the deletion (cleaning), but everything remains the same:
Continued leaving the message of the BIOS
The network adapter integrated into the Motherboard still not working.
What else can I do?

DLM- atarazanas1,
Since the onboard networking adapter is broken it is not going to work, that is why it needs to be disabled in the BIOS.
You may check to see if there is an entry under unknown devices in the Device Manager for the adapter, if there is, try removing the driver and disabling it there.
At this point I have no further ideas. atarazanas1

What is your opinion about reinstalling the current version of BIOS? There is some danger when installing the same version currently have installed on my PC?
With regard to changing the Motherboard by this problem, I believe that I will continue with the current Motherboard and using the network adapter I installed the PCI slot.
Greetings.

You would need to go into the System setup and disable the onboard NIC, as it has failed. That is what the message is telling you.
