What's going on here? A week or so ago this showed up and haven't been able to turn on my laptop since. Some hardware issue?

It kind of looks like it's attempting to PXE boot from the network to me.

It does, but that doesn't cause the error. After failing to boot via pxe the system tries to boot from hard disk and that fails too. Bad HDD most likely

BIOS are usually set up with PXE in the boot sequence. If it fails to boot from the hard drive, it'll attempt PXE.
