      Hi,

      I'm super new to PFsense, and I already got stuck on the installation :P
      My livecd is good, when i try it on a different machine, it does boot. It doesn't boot on the machine a actually want to use for pfsense.
      I attached a screenshot of the error i get when trying to boot the cd.
      Thanks!

      Kind Regards,

      Rick

        1. Try disabling AHCI options in your BIOS.  Check for BIOS updates.

        2. You will be placed into a cannon and shot into the Sun if you post a 1.5Mb 3120x4208 image here again  ;D

            I don't have any option in my bios to change the AHCI, and there are no bios update's available .

            Btw, I use a HP Compaq dx2300 Base Model Microtower PC

              Usually these types of boot errors are due to computer BIOS issues.  If there is nothing for you to change then you are out of luck.  Try a different PC.
