Fuzzy Notebook Evangelist. I am interested in a 3 year warranty on a high end R61 or T61 Lenovo laptop for home use, but unsure whether to get an onsite or depot warranty.
I just bought a lenovo laptop, which came with preinstalled Windows 8. When I turn it on the first thing I see is: EFI network 0 for IPv4 (20-89-84-23-c3-45) boot failed. Checking media (Fail) EFI network 0 for IPv6 (20-89-84-23-c3-45) boot failed. And then a blue screen: Default Boot Device Missing or boot failed.
