    Hi there,

    I have a T60

    It works ok, in generel, but during startup it gives some errors - almost in the bios or so I think...

    First error:
    Initializing Intel (R) Boot Agent GE V.1.2.50
    PXE-E05: The lan adapter configuration is corrupted or has not been initialized.
    The Boot Agent Cannot continue.

    Then this one:
    Expansion ROM not initialized. PCI on motherboard.
    BUS: 00, Device: 00, Function: 00

    Press <ESC> to continue

    When I press the <ESC> windows starts up normally.

    I've been looking on www.lenovo.com for help - been downloading every update - BIOS as well - but nothing seems to help...

    So if one of you guys from in here could help me, that would be fantastic :)

    Have you tried resetting your BIOS settings? It seems like it's trying to boot from the network.

    your bios is not set to boot from a hard drive first

    check your bios settings and rework the boot order

    Sounds like you agree on this one - I'll check the bios settings later - and then inform you.

    Thank you in advance :)
