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

I have no past experience with terminal please if its not to much trouble help me!

i think PXE is network boot
do you have your windows 7 install / recovery disk?
if so it will be easy to fix if not well ...
it can be fixed

HELP ME PLEASE 10-14-2009 10:13 PM

ok then what?

smeezekitty 10-14-2009 10:15 PM

type
cd /media
ls
and post the output

HELP ME PLEASE 10-14-2009 10:18 PM

i think i might of had a typo it says bash: cdmedia command not found
i typed cd\media did the is have some significance ?

scratch that i saw i did type it right fixed it typed cd/media and is returned bash:c/media:no such file or directory

smeezekitty 10-14-2009 10:22 PM

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


HELP ME PLEASE 10-14-2009 10:25 PM

all of them returned can't find /dev/hda(what ever # it was) in /ect/fstab or /ect/mtab

and on the second to last one it said No such file or directory

last one: command not found

What now?

smeezekitty 10-14-2009 10:28 PM

command not found on the last one?
try typing dir in lowercase

HELP ME PLEASE 10-14-2009 10:30 PM

looks like commands are working being a user of cmd prompt i do know what that means and it worked showed desktop documents music pictures public templates videos

smeezekitty 10-14-2009 10:32 PM

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

HELP ME PLEASE 10-14-2009 10:53 PM

so you are say to remove any internet boot options from my bios?
