Media fail check cable

[Strictly LRG]

I just bought a new hdd for my LEVONA T410 after my last one crashed. I installed it into my computer and now its saying,

PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable

PXE-MOF: Exiting Intel Boot Agent.

I've tried looking at multiple sites and even calling the support line but I couldnt get a straight answer to anything.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Have you tried removing the drive and then reinserting it? That will often fix the issue.

Hi there Strictly LRG,

You may need to attach the drive to another computer, so you can make sure it is in a good condition. Once you attach it, you can test it with some of these: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/282651-32-best-diagnostic-testing-utility

If there's nothing wrong with the drive, you may need to take the laptop to a repair shop.

I would agree with webworkings. Reseating the drive may be a good start.
