HI JUST JOINED ON HERE BUT FOUND THIS WHILE TRYING TO SORT OUT A PROBLEM WITH CHANGING OVER A MOTHERBOARD
I ASLO WAS GETTING THIS MESSAGE
PXE-E61: Media test failure,check cable, THEN UNDER THAT IS THIS ONE: PXE-mof: Exiting Intel PXE ROM Invalid partition table_
AFTER READING AND READING AND CHECKING ALL THINGS IT SUDDENING OCCURED TO ME THAT I SHOULD JUST CHECK THAT I PLACED IN THE HARD DRIVE CORRECTLY
FOUND THAT THE PINS WHERE NOT PLACED IN AND THAT ONE OF THEM BENT NOT MAKING A CONNECTION
THERFORE THE RULE IS DONT GO TO TECH. AS THE SIMPLE OPTION IS NORMALLY THE FAULT
LOOK THE BELOW OF JUST ONE PART OF A LENGTHLY TRED POSTED

Hello to all. I hope everyone is doing great! I need help,My computer recently had a power surge, and in the result fried my Antec 550 Watt Power Supply, So I went to store and bought a new one, and the cable that goes to the mother board was too big so I called the Antec Co. who told me that I could remove a clip or section of the too large cable connector by pulling it apart, I did and he was right, and the connector fit right in the mother board slot. Now I have power to computer, but when I try to boot computer on the black screen it stops with this message: PXE-E61: Media test failure,check cable, THEN UNDER THAT IS THIS ONE: PXE-mof: Exiting Intel PXE ROM Invalid partition table_
I have checked the bios and everything seems fine. I have three hard drives in this computer. The mother board is an ABIT TH711. I have checked all the cables and everything seems to be tight fit. I removed the hard drive "120 gig" that has the os on it"winx xp pro" and put it in an enclosure, then by usb cable looked at it throught my lap top and it appears to be working fine. So I am at a lost. I built this computer and have helped so many others with their computer problems now I can't seem to help myself! LOL... Does anyone have an answer to this problem?
Respectfully Submitted,

PORE GUY COULD OF JUST CHECKED HIS PCI AND FOUND THAT, THAT WAS THE PROBLEM
I WOULD ALSO CHECK THAT THE MOTHERBOARDS ARE COMPATIBLE AND THAT THE HARDDRIVE HAS THE REQUIRED DRIVERS( IF NEEDED) AND THAT THE BOOTING OOPTIONS ARE OF THE CORREST ORDER
