linux - Desktop unable to boot automatically. Need to manually select boot device everytime

I have an Intel i5 2500K processor, Intel® Desktop Board DH67BL and 500GB SATA drive.


Earlier I had another hard disk with OS installed on it as well as current hard disk.
Now when I formatted the hard disk and installed linux (tried with ubuntu and fedora) I get following error on boot every time
" PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M05: Exiting Intel Boot Agent "


While booting if I press F10 to go to boot menu and select my hard disk manually it works fine and boots every time.


I already have my hard disk setup as boot device. I have also disabled network device boot but still am facing this issue. I tried Windows and it boots fine. But when I again install Linux as dual boot device It fails to recognize any existing partition on my hard disk and asks me to format whole drive.
Please solve.
