I understand that this is triggered due to no harddrive found for boot (and then subsequently no network). (Plenty of googling shows it to be quite common).
I have ensured the harddrive is the first in the list in the boot priority in BIOS.
The error is intermittent. I can power off a few times and eventually it will boot.
I even tried a different harddrive and the same behaviour was witnessed. So it appears to be hardware related but not harddrive related. If that is the case, what component could be failing?
The machine is a laptop.
