Kami VP, that error is typical of a failed hard drive. The BIOS attempts to boot from the hard disk which fails and then tries the next device in line which is often the network. Since booting from the network is possible only under very specific conditions, this too fails. Lacking another boot device it then issues the message and gives up the boot.
Oops! I'd like to change my mind.
