Help Me!! Grub loading error 22 into weird BIOS problem
PLEASE HELP ME FAST
ok here is my problem i dual booted windows 7(with out a disk) and ubuntu(with a disk) and then every time I boot it says the error in the title so then i tried something but i think i screwed it up even more. now when ever i boot it comes up with an lots of text that keep repeating the lines included PXE-E61:media test failure, check cable and PXE-M0F:existing PXE ROM
I have looked at other forums but non of them have worked just yet
I think this might be because I have no idea what im doing

type all these in sequence and dont worry about any errors you see on screen
Code:
sudo su
mount /dev/hda1
mount /dev/hda2
mount /dev/hda3
mount /dev/hdb1
cd /media
ls

2) you need to know how to get into your bios...motherboard manual may help
hit the delete key works for me. but I do not have your errors.
I would advise that boot order should not include any lan connection...stick to local media cdrom/harddrive...harddrive includes usbdrives
