Bleck Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I'm trying to install Windows XP (fuck Vista) on my laptop. I have the CD, but whenever I try to boot from CD, it says the following; PXE-E61: Media test failed, check cable. PXE-M01: Exiting. Then it boots Vista as normal. Help?

Bleck Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 I only have four options. Hard Drive, CD/DVD, FDD and LAN. I chose CD/DVD, it does the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleck Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 The only way I know how to answer that question is by saying a Toshiba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
