GUID screen every time at startup. What this means and I can stop it.

Hello

On my XP, I get a screen every startup GUID upward.  I think it all started when I added memory a long time ago.
Is this an error?

See the PXE - 2.1 in the first line?

PXE means Preboot eXecution Environment.

Some systems can be set to boot from a network instead of a CD or a hard disk.

It seems that in the BIOS of your system of brand not specified and the model, the first thing that the system is looking for to try to boot from the network.  If this fails, then it will go to the next device, which is probably your hard drive.

If network booting is not suitable for your environment, you must enter your system BIOS and change the order of boot devices is hard to push first, third, second disk CD, the fourth and final USB network (or just disable the part).

Looks like some sort of HP, so when you put, I think that you need start typing the F10 key to enter the BIOS, but look for a message on the screen that tells you which key press to enter the BIOS.  If you miss it, let the system startup, restart, and try again.

You have all these options, so you'll have to check it out and define the order of devices to start on everything that suits you best.  Take note of any changes so if things get worse, you can undo changes.

You may decide it is better to put the CD in the first place, the HARD drive second...  You will need to decide what the best order is for your environment, and it will be good for you to know how to adjust because you may do that someday in the future for troubleshooting.

If you put the CD first, that will slow down your boot a bit because the system will look on the CD first push (and probably not find anything) and then go to disk HARD - that could cost you a second or two in your startup.  I always put the HARD drive first because I know that if I ever need to boot from a CD, I can just change things if I need to.

Your startup time is suffering since your system is looking for boot from the network first not find anything, then spend your HARD drive - it takes time.

I'm always quick start.
