I tried but all I get is PXE-T01: File not Found
PXE-E3B: TFTP Error - File not Found
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent

DHCP seems to be assigning an IP address but TFTP - nothing!

Same if I use an external Win2K3 server for DHCP

Thank you! I know this article is old but it just saved me a ton of trouble after 2 days!
I managed to apply a wrong BIOS update (there were 2 versions for the same laptop) to an Acer Aspire 1800. The update was done in Windows XP. After the reboot the screen was scrambled. Tried various approaches from the Net with no luck.
Since I couldn’t see the screen probably, it was almost impossible to do anything. Even an Acer support person (via online chat) suggested I needed a physcial technician to fix the issue!
I used the above (add some issues with the path settings since I used a newer versio of tftpd32) but I got it to work (jumpstarted the Acer from a Vista laptop with a direct Ethernet cable between the two)
Thanks again!

Thanks for the response. You are right, my partitions are NTFS. I ran fdisk /xo and then I was able to change which of my partitions is the active one, which then lets me boot my old windows install and recover all my data, which was why I started down this PXE network boot in the first place.

Now I’ve got it all working, I shall keep playing…

Many thanks.

Try to boot freedos without the pxe (floppy or cd) to see if the pxe is the problem first.

My guess is that your filesystem is NTFS or your HDD is sata (not the older eide/pata). try running fdisk. if you see partitions or a hdd, then your partitions a likely incompatible. if you don’t see partitions or a hdd, you have an incompatible hdd (most likely sata).

good luck!
