I have an assertion failure for the first time on a new laptop, Win 7, using Wavelab. If I "ignore" the software seems to work ok - so can I ignore it or will there be unfortunate consequences down the line some time?

I have the problem of failure to configure windows, i have seen a few posts on here about people solving this problem but i am a bit of a noob so was hoping i could get some 1 on 1 help.I was stuck in a loop for a while in that i would get to the failure to configure windows screen and it would either restart or would just stay on that screen for hours. i have now somehow got onto my laptop (don't ask me how! just luck i guess) but i was wondering if there was something i could do to stop it happening again. until that time i will be trying to leave my laptop turned on.
View 5 Replies View Relatedmy PC is refusing to start up. It happened yesterday after the power had flickered, I turned off my computer because the battery it was hooked up to was yelling at me (due to the power flicker). On the startup, my PC just hangs after "Verifying DMI Pool Data", and then gives me the "DISKBOOT FAILURE, PLEASE INSERT DISC AND PRESS ENTER" to continue shenanigans.
I've cleaned out my computer and have tried unplugging my two external hard-drives, as well as going into the BIOS and making sure the boot order was correct. When I insert a Windows boot disc, it refuses to 'repair' my system because it says there's no specified OS to repair... I thought the problem was that it wasn't recognizing my actual hard-drive, but that doesn't seem to be the case, (I forgot how I got to it but,) it recognized that I had 183/500 GB of space left (as well as being able to view certain files.
I recently was able to get into DOS, where it's listing my main drive as "X:windows\system32". Could this be the problem? If so, how did it reassign it to "X: and why did it do that?!
I turned the laptop off by holding the power on button depressed for as long as it took to power down.I have done this many times before.This time the laptop will not start windows after power up. Win 7 offers 2 options, normal or startup repair.Both appear to run but stay on permanently and neither will start windows. Tried booting using the repair disk and laptop will not boot from CD. CD spins initially but without booting. Only thing I can see that is not normal is that after several seconds trying to boot the Disk led remains permanently on, at least to my eyes.I have removed the battery, powered up without the battery,tried different repair CD all to no avail.

I suspect that it will take at least two hours to set it all up again but if anyone can give me a quick fix or tell me why it can't remember anything, or even the name of some network software that works, you'll be my friend for life!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have two identical Acer Aspire One (722) netbooks each running Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit).The OS came pre-installed on the netbooks with no Windows 7 disks. There is a Windows 7 product key number on the underside of each computer.One of the netbooks experienced a HDD crash that I have been unable to recover from. I am not able to boot. I tried several different repair utilities and recovery disks. I am able to see all the files and folders when I view the drive using a SATA to USB adapter cable on another PC.
I am going to install a new SSD to replace the failed HDD.I created an image of the HDD from the other identical working netbook.(I failed to create an image or back-up of the HDD that failed - my bad.)I want to install this image onto the new SSD that will then go into the netbook that has the bad HDD.I assume at this point I need to do something with the activation licenses or product keys,because I don't want to do anything illegal.I also don't want to have to buy a new copy of Windows 7, since I feel I already had bought two working copies as part of the two netbook purchases.
So my question is, do I then have to reenter or change the product key from the newly installed (restored) image file from the working netbook and use the product key that was originally associated with the netbook that had the failed HDD? How do I do this? Will this plan work? I want to end up with two working netbooks each with their own legal and activated version of Windows 7 with the two product keys that I have, just as I had before I suffered the HDD failure.I realize I could have avoided all this if I had created an image and back-up of the HDD that actually failed.

View 1 Replies View Relatedi have a system with a corsair force 3 60GB SSD with Windows 7 on it. Recently, when i tried booting the system, it would not boot into windows, instead it would get stuck on the "Loading Operating System .................................................................." page and then it would ask to load an operating system and press ENTER.
I have inserted the drive into another computer by USB to check the system files and it seems fine, i can read and write to and from the drive and i can see the system files on my other com.
I have also tried booting the Drive from other computers but same issue. I am not sure if its a driver issue or a corrupted windows file.
I have tried other methods, setting the drive to first boot, forcing the system to boot from the drive, setting to ACHI mode, inserting the drive into different SATA ports and controller, all to no avail.
I just bought new a 60gb SSD and Win 7 64 bit OEM (microsoft official) and when I try to boot the install disk with the SSD connected to the mobo I get a message at boot saying that it failed to boot from the CD and to insert the CD then try again. Needless to say when I reinsert the CD it still says this message.
When I connect my other new HD drive I bought (Western Gate 500GB) the CD boots up the Win 7 install and I can install the OS on that just fine, but that drive is intended to be my secondary and my SSD my primary for the OS.
I set it in my bios so that it boots from my DVD drive first and even disabled booting from the hard disk at all. My SSD shows up in the BIOS, but for whatever reason Win 7 install just WONT work when I have that SSD connected to the mobo.
The SSD is brand new, never been used before. I have no idea if I got a faulty SSD or I'm missing a step somewhere when installing a new OS onto a new SSD?
I am running Windows 7 32 Bit Home Premium, and at random times the PC will shut down and come up with the BSOD. After I try to boot up the computer I get a message saying 'Disk Boot Failure Insert system disk and press enter. Most of the time the only way I can get it to boot up is if I open up the case and disconnect the hard disk and dvd drive and reconnect them. On the initial screen after pressing the power button, it'll take a while before it detects IDE drives. If I don't disconnect/reconnect them, then at the initial screen it will sit at that screen and will not detect any disk/dvd drive.Does anybody know a proper solution without having to disconnect and reconnect the hard disk/dvd drive as I think that this may not be a good idea?

View 11 Replies View RelatedI've just tried twice to install Win7 Service Pack 1 on a relative's Acer desktop PC - which runs ZoneAlarm anti-virus, but has very little else apart from Word installed. Each time, the download and install process seemed to go OK; however, when the system rebooted, it displayed the Windows startup logo, but at the point where the logo goes away and you expect to see the mouse appear, it just froze with a blank grey screen. I left it for a while, but nothing happened. Eventually, I power-cycled the PC and an error message was displayed and a Windows boot selection was offered: Repair (recommended) or Start Normally.
Choosing 'Start Normally' repeated the boot and freeze sequence. Choosing 'Repair' started the startup repair procedure, which failed with 'The operating System is incompatible with Startup Repair'. Trying the 'Advanced Restore' procedure reported 'No restore points', although I had explicitly created one before the update, and the update itself creates one. I managed to fix it by running 'Startup Repair from the original Windows 7 installation DVD. The PC works fine now, but Service Pack 1 isn't installed. I have had to turn off automatic updates so that it won't get installed. Failing that, is there a way to disable the 'Service Pack 1' entry in 'Windows Updates' so that automatic updates can be enabled?
I recently had a PSU failure and replaced with a new unit. System now powers up.
However Windows is now randomly locking up. No BSOD, no warning, it just locks and stops responding. No screen corruption either. The only solution is to power off. It never once did this prior to the PSU failure.
The lockups happen randomly, maybe after 20 mins, maybe an hour and have occurred when:
Internet browsing
Running a large Backup
Installing the new SP1
There is nothing in the event logs that suggests anything happening prior to the lock up. There are no heat issues.
To try to isolate the problem, I have: Run Memtest86 for hours with no problems and also the Windows memory test, all fine.
Run Prime95 for a while again with no problems. I am gonna do some more tests later in Prime to check cache specifically. Reinstalled Windows on different a Hard Disk and still get exactly the same problem.
I am now coming to the conclusion that the PSU failure may have caused some sort of damage either to the motherboard or processor. I am going to return the new PSU to the supplier and get a replacement sent out just in case the new PSU is at fault.
Running Win7 64bit. Have spent hours on various forums with a ton of "so called solutions.Windows Installer doesn't show up under services at all. Can't find a download to reinstall since it should use v5. The v4.5 won't install.
