    I thought my hard drive was starting to fail, so I backed up an image of it, installed a brand new hard drive, and restored the image to the new drive.

    But now on bootup the BIOS says “configuration change has occurred”, DHCP runs in the Pre-boot eXecution Environment (PXE), and then the BIOS says “no boot filename received”. But then the system boots normally, and seems to work well.

    What’s this all about, and how do I make it stop doing that?

    Look in your bios to make sure the new drive boots ahead of PXE or network.

    Bingo. Thanks. When I saw it was a boot sequence error, I should have immediately figured it out. But thanks again.
