PXE-E61 Media Test Failure Error for Intel® Desktop Boards Documentation
Content TypeTroubleshooting
Article ID000005740
Last Reviewed11/01/2017 What are you seeing?
The following errors display when your Intel® Desktop Board starts:

• PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable.
• PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent.

Why are you seeing it?
PXE (Preboot eXecution Environment) is a boot environment that allows the Intel Desktop Board to boot up using a network interface, instead of booting from an installed hard drive. You can enable or disable PXE boot in the BIOS.
If PXE Boot is enabled in BIOS, the PXE-E61 and PXE-M0F errors can happen when both of these are true:

• A bootable hard drive is not detected.
• A network cable is not connected to the Intel Desktop Board.

How to fix it
If a drive is installed Check that the drive is detected in BIOS:

1. Press F2 during boot to enter BIOS Setup.
2. Go to the Boot menu.
3. Check the Boot Drive Order.
4. Press F10 to exit BIOS Setup.

If Boot Drive Order shows No Boot Drive:

• Check that the drive is properly installed in the computer.
• Try installing a different known good drive.

If PXE Boot is enabled in BIOS To check the BIOS option:

1. Press F2 during boot to enter BIOS Setup.
2. Go to the Boot menu and check for Boot to Network.
3. Press F10 to exit BIOS Setup.

If you do not plan to boot to a network, disable this option.

If you do want to boot to a network, check that the network cable connection is working properly.

Try removing the wireless card it sometimes causes an intel base error

re-load OS from cd/dvd,dont play with the keys unessesarily whilst you are re-installing

Hello.

That error message usually refers to a hard disk failure. Your hard disk cable could be loose or faulty. Or, your hard drive would need to be replaced.

I'd suggest to check the cable and run your system's hardware diagnostics (often F2 or F12) when your system boots.

Hope this helps.

Hard drive has been coruppted. Hold alt f10 on statup to format and reinstall. If that dont work you may need to try install from cd's provided when you purchased laptop. If that dont work buy new hard drive and restore from cd's. Good Luck.

Something went wrong with your last installation. try reinstalling windows. But, before that go to BIOS and check the BOOTING devices

Hi,
I need a small clarification are you calling for a desktop computer or a laptop.
if its a desktop computer, reseat the video card on the computer and then try restarting the system. The problem can be casued because of loose video card.

Thanks for using Fixya

your e-machine is set to boot from the network (PXE = Netboot)

go to your BIOS and make sure you boot from your hard drive

sounds like hard disk faliure, suggest getting a new hard disk or perhaps attempt a system reinstall. Its not the fan but the hard disk.
