I have a problem with booting
The pc sometimes when i shutdown it, turns on after some minutes automatically and it seems that tries to boot from network , message:CLIENT MAC ADDR: XX XX XX XX XX XX ......
Sometimes doesnt turned on automatically but when i mannualy try to turn it on, i get a message Start PXE over IPv4, after this i get the message Start PXE over IPv6 and then turns on normally
I check the bios boot options and seems ok, Uefi Boot and first boot device the hard disk
I made an update the bios but nothing happen
Has somenone any idea what can i do?

In a "corporate" computer network, there might exist a "boot-server" computer on the network.
Then, "client" computers can be configured to use that PXE (Pre-eXecution Environment) to use the network to load Windows from that boot-server.
If you enter BIOS SETUP, you can change the list of "bootable" options, to exclude PXE.
But, it's curious that your computer does not always FIRST try to boot from the internal disk-drive.
You can use BIOS SETUP to make that setting.
