But usually if it tries and can't boot it moves on to other boot choices.

Terry never said he had another choice. Try again.

Well he has to have another choice, because it can't boot from *nothing*. Try again.

Boot choices can be disabled in BIOS.

Nice editing of the part where I said exactly that.




In a non-residential
environment, that would be the proper way to configure a PXE boot
terminal. No booting from USB, Optical Drive or Hard Drive, boot only
from the LAN.

Odds are, the BIOS was password protected before Terry reset the CMOS.
