Doesn't ANYONE in this group have a copy of the system disks?? Once you can boot from anything, things get a lot easier.

I was able to burn the image.
First I tried burning it onto an SSD connected to the rear USB through an adapter. Upon powering, the scope seemed to freeze unless I hit 'tab' to bypass the boot screen. At this point I was able to tell BIOS to boot off the USB (I tried all the ones available) and it wouldn't boot.
Today I tried burning the image to a 3.5" IDE. I connected it to the IDE 44-pin cable and powered the drive via an external supply.
In both cases I got the same messages:
PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel PXE ROM
Intel (R) Boot Agent Version 4.0.14
PKE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel PXE ROM
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER
I'll try turning off something related to PKE in the BIOS, but I'm uncertain why I'm getting this error message. It seems the system isn't seeing the drive, but I've tried the original drive, the SSD, and USB. Also, this issue began after I opened the cover and poked at the cheap hard drive (3.5" to 2.5") adapter; I never tinkered with the BIOS.
