I have a problem in my mini notebook laptop. It says Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key. What can I do?
'Cause my brother fell my laptop on the ground and I don't know if it's already broken. I'm so scared 'cause this laptop is so expensive. :(
Which boot device should be set as the first boot device in BIOS setup when a technician is configuring a computer to launch Windows PE on the deployment server?
This depends on your expertise and preference. Typically I suggest setting your optical media drive (CD/DVD/ETC) as your first boot device, but this tends to slow down your boot time ever so slightly as the drive seeks in order to figure out if the disk in the drive is bootable media or if there's even a disk in the drive. It makes installing boot-level media far easier, however. If you know what you're doing and know how to manually open the boot menu without going into setup, then set your hard disk as your first boot device, followed by your optical media drive, then finally any other medium such as floppy drive, removable media, etc.

My thinkpad laptop will not boot back up it just comes up with a picture on the screen that looks like it wants you to insert a floppy disk with an arrow flashing to a floppy drive Can anyone help?
You may have lost the boot record on the hard drive or the hard drive may have failed. Try booting from a floppy or CD, whatever rescue boot device you have. If you can look at the C: drive from the alternate boot device you may have just lost the boot record. If you can't get to the C: drive you may have either a drive or a controller failure.

What do you do when a computer says no bootable device--insert boot disk and press any key?
That means that there is no hard drive installed, or that it does not have a working operating system on it. The BIOS is prompting you to insert a bootable CD to install an operating system or run a repair utility.
