Aurora Re-start Issues
I have started seeing issue with my Aurora where it will not re-start. During POST after when it goes to boot devices it will just sit at the screen trying to boot from DVD, it is set as 1st boot device, saying no medium present but it will not go on and boot from hard drive. I started noticing this at first when I will do re-star within Windows. In order to properly boot after this happens I need to shut it down then press power ON and most of the time it will boot OK.

Weird. I have seen this on my XPS-410, when I swapped it's DVD-RW for a LG Blu-Ray drive.
What I did on that machine to fix it was to remove it from the list of allowable boot devices or change boot order (HDD first). You can allways use F12 bios boot menu on the rare ocassion you need to boot from DVD.
