Machine Start Up problems

[ruscook]

It sounds like you don't have a boot loader on your HD and your BIOS is
looking for a DHCP server.  First confirm which HDD your BIOS is trying
to boot from. Then if it still doesn't work you may need to boot off of
a Ubuntu live CD and reinstall GRUB.

Its trying to get an IP address from something.... but I have never seen that before. So I put my normal 40G drive back in that has my original ubuntu OS on it and now it does the same thing. If you hit escape it says that I must configure the boot device. Hitting any of the F1 - 10 buttons during start up doest help. That just knocks you out of the DHCP lookup and into the error message again.
