disable PXE boot on PowerEdge 860

I have a Dell PowerEdge 860 with BIOS version A04(07/24/2007) with following boot order:

1) IDE CD-ROM device

2) Hard drive C:

In case I configure both GigE interfaces in BIOS to "Enabled without PXE" I'll end up with "No PXE-capable device available" prompt:

..and I need to press F1 key in order to boot from HDD. Now if I configure both GigE interfaces to "Enabled with PXE" then I'll end up with "boot from" prompt:

Is it possible to disable PXE boot on PE860? This is a rather disturbing as in case of reload, the server would not boot up automatically :emotion-43:

PS if any additional information is needed, please feel free to ask!
