Selected Answer: C

The Preboot Execution Environment. They want to assume the technician is turning on the PC to reimage the drive through company network via PXE. Before ruling out hardware is faulty, check the BIOS/UEFI that you have this configured. https://www.techtarget.com/searchnetworking/definition/Preboot-Execution-Environment
