No Disk in the Drive error on KBE bootup
Hey everyone, when I try to boot certain computers into the KBE I sometimes get this error.
"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk 1\DR 1"
It give me an option to Cancel - Try Again - Continue
if I hit Try Again or Continue the error goes away and everything continues to load just fine, no issues.
This particularly happens on netbooks. I don't have any flashdrives plugged in or anything. Has anyone ran into this and have a solution to make this error go away?
Thanks!

Are you pxe booting?
Is this a XP boot?
Did you complie your boot enviroment on a machine with extra drives attached at the time?
I have seen this problem with machines with card readers installed.

I am PXE booting, the KBE is the default that came with case so I dunno about extra drives however it doesn't have the error on most machines, This netbook does have a card reader, which is what I think it probably is, any way around it? - DanGreenbrier 12 years ago

here are a couple of links that talk about card readers/other drives

can you disable the card reader in bios and see if it stops it? - SMal.tmcc 12 years ago

If this is a new computer it could also be a driver problem. The newer systems have "AF" hard drives and require addtional drivers. Check a drive and look of the "AF: on the label, if there is an AF.

Check your boot order in the BIOS.
