the latest rtm extract did not come as an iso. Now there is a boot folder, but I can't create the correct boot disc at all.....
Everytime I burn the disc it just doesn't want to boot to it, it just bypasses it. So I can't get a clean install going.... I am running nero 9, any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not that skilled at making boot discs, detailed instructions would be great.
I'm trying to 'Create a system repair disc' but keep getting this error message: System repair disc could not be created. The request is not supported (0x80070032). This is trying to use my CDRW.
If I try to use my DVDRW the error message I get is same but with a Unspecified error (0x8004005).
I've googled and tried ms support but can't find a solution. Any help would be appreciated...TIA
Have a PC with Windows 7 on it. First hard disk with Master Boot Record failed (had an install of windows xp on it) - have now removed faulty disk, but PC will not boot due to Master Boot Record not being on second disk.How do I go about re-creating the MBR on this Windows 7 install disk ?Tried googling, and as usual nobody seems to have a quick / easy fix - and tried Windows 7 repair options, doesn't work (doesn't even recognise Windows 7 is on the disk).So, I have a non-bootable PC... with access to other PC's and laptops around me (also with windows 7 on), so could plug the disk in to one of those via usb dock station etc...
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a netbook with Windows 7. I tried installing Windows XP on it in an attempt to dual boot. The XP setup copied required files but failed to boot after that. The error shows " ntoskrnl.exe is missing". I tried installing XP once again using CD but still same result and windows doesn't boot. Now I don't have Windows 7 dvd and cannot repair the Windows 7 installation. But I do have a Linux Mint LiveUSB. How can I repair the situation using that?
View 17 Replies View RelatedSo I have an bit of an odd and I think unique problem (as many searches came up with no solutions). Simply put, my boot manager is missing, but only when my windows install disc is not in the disc drive. It started several months ago and I just left it be, let the disc it int he disc drive and it was not that big of a deal. But just did a clean install couple days ago I re-installed windows 7 ultimate 64-bit on my computer (using an upgrade disc if that makes a difference).I formatted the drive with what I guess is a quick format (the option the install disc gives you). I have tried doing a repair with the install disc but no problems are found every time I try.

[code] I have built many many computers in the past.I have only had one that gave me trouble as there was a pinning that was hidden. Since then I have built at least 8 with out trouble.So I went about collecting parts and building.I go to turn it on and only a flash of light at all of the lights. Then shuts down and nothing.I wait a few minutes and try again.i get the same result a flash of the fan lights then nothing so I am at a loss as to what is wrong.I changed cases, and I chaanged power supplies at different intervals. Nothing. i changed the case to a different one. and still no change.I have not changed the RAM. Nor the CPU. But I did try a different Mother board with the same cpu and ram. Still not change.I am to presume that I have a bad cpu and or ram, or these items do not like each other.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis combination of drivers works fine in windows vista 32 bit.. boots up fine and everything. Today I finally got my SSDD for my OS and a copy of Windows 7 64 bit. I installed it fine without error. Then installed my chipset drivers that I downloaded off of Nvidia's website (64 bit, worked fine, rebooted), installed my nvidia display drivers, rebooted.. now whenever I start windows up. I get the flowery blue background windows logo. It just hangs there and never boots. However it will boot fine into safe mode and after I uninstall the display drivers... though my gaming computer is going to be pretty useless if I can't game with it!

Windows 7 64bit
Asus Striker II Formula (with 15.58 64 bit drivers installed)
2x SLI EVGA Geforce 560 TI 448 Special Edition (with64 bit 310.90 Drivers Installed)
I am going to try installing the motherboard chipset drivers from Asus's website. I believe the version number is 15.43, then try reinstalling the video drivers. However I don't think this is going to make much a difference.
I recently rebuilt a computer that had a P4 3.2 Ghz, 2 Gb ram, and windows XP. I put in an asus p5n-e sli motherboard, 6 Gb of ram, and an intel celeron E 3200 2.4 Ghz dual core. The computer is my parents, and the new parts are from my computer that I just upgraded. After I installed the new parts, windows would not start, nor would it boot to a disc to attempt repair. I put the hard drive into my computer to get the files that I needed off of it, then wiped the hard drive with it installed in my computer. I put the freshly wiped drive into the other computer in which I would receive "boot mgr not found ctrl + alt+ del to restart" I then tried to install a fresh copy of windows 7 thinking that boot mgr is part of windows. I tried to boot to the install cd, it loads the files, but then just sits at the starting windows screen and does nothing. I put the hard drive back into my computer and installed windows 7 on it from there, then put it back into the other computer. I still am getting the "boot mgr not found" message and it will not boot to windows. It still will not boot to any disc, even a windows repair disc did not work. If i put the drive into my computer, it will boot just fine
View 5 Replies View RelatedSorry if this question has been answered before but I downloaded Win 7 x86 from my school website and saved it on a clear partition. I am trying to burn a disc but I am new to this. I read I might need power iso to extract files? I burned a disc but I guess i did not specify boot and it did not work. I have a 2gig file ( Win 7) downloaded on my hard drive and I am lost.

Having opened a Works Database I open a Word document to create labels. "Mailings" produces the Mail Merge boxes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased an Asus k52J laptop but decided to return it soon after. Unfortunatly even though the laptop is in new condition they won't accept it because I deletd the recovery partition like an idiot! I asked if I just restored to factory settings if they would accept it then, they still refused because it wouldn't have the recovery partition, I tried to create the recovery partion normally but it wont work since Windows 7 tries to backup the entire C drive instead of just the boot files and it inveitavbly runs out of room on the hard drive. Is there anyone way to recreate that original recovery partition or at least something that will fit in 19 gig partition?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've 2 dvd rewriters in my pc. Both Pioneer, one oldish and one older. The both work within windows. When I select multi-boot options to run a boot disc they are both displayed to choose from. However, if I select one of them, the disc boots. If I select the other one, the command to boot is ignored and the system boots into windows - obviously ignoring the dvd device. It's the newer one which is the problem. They both used to work ok with a boot disc.

It does not give me the option to boot in safe mode, and the laptop did not come with a windows 7 os disc.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to run memtest on a new build and for some reason, the machine will not boot from the disc drive. I'm positive that it CAN boot from the disc drive because I just installed windows 7x64 on it last night. I have already configured the BIOS to boot from CDROM as it's first choice and selected to boot from CDROM thru the boot menu. I am 100% positive that this memtest disc is good because I just successfully ran it on my main machine with no problems.
ps. to power the disc drive I am using a 4-pin molex to SATA adapter since my PSU only has 2 SATA pwr connectors and they are being used to power my 2 HDD's. I don't know if this has to do with it...could it be a bad adapter not powering the drive at initial startup? Bear in mind that the drive works fine once I'm in the OS.

View 9 Replies View RelatedSo originally when I bought my Laptop it was Windows Vista. A while ago I upgraded to Windows 7 by downloading the OS and a valid serial key form a third party distributor associated with my school. Next week I`m putting together a new desktop PC, and want to install Windows 7 on it. I have another valid serial key to use for the registration, however do not have a boot disc to use. Wil the System Restore Disc that I can create using the wizard on Win 7 be able to boot and load a new OS on my new desktop or will i have to create a boot disc another way.Also, I still have the original installation files saved in My Downloads, although not in .iso format but expanded and just saved as files.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOkay so I have searched online for how to create a Windows 7 Boot Disc, but to no avail. I have blank dvds, I have a legit operating system, and I have an activation code. I have no idea where to go from here and find boot files or installation files or create ISOs etc.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently downloaded a copy of Windows 7 Professional 64 bit through MSDN, burned the iso to a dvd using ImgBurn (Auto write speed) and then attempted to boot the disc.
The computer tries to load the files off the disc, and then this error pops up:
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
File: windowsystem32ootwinload.exe
status: 0xc0000001
info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.
I checked the file location, and the file was there. I decided to do a factory image restore (probably stupid of me) since I had already backed up all my files and was planning on doing a clean install of 7 anyway.
I then tried the boot again, but got the same error, even though I was under the impression that factory restore would fix any corrupted system files. Since, for all intents and purposes, my computer is "new", and there's nothing on it now except for what came with it, I'm at a loss as to what could be causing the problem.
I have a Dell Inspiron 1720, running Vista 32 bit Home Premium. Intel Core Duo processor, 2.4 GHz.
I screwed up and ordered Windows 7 Pro before I realized I couldn't do an upgrade from Vista Home Premium. I really don't want to resintall all my programs. So I'm thinking about installing a new drive, and doing a dual boot setup with Windows 7 on the new "D" drive. Question is, can I do this with an upgrade version of Windows 7, or do I need the full version?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI just created a system repair disc by clicking "Create a system repair disc" on my computer. The disc was successfully created, then I went to boot it up in VirtualBox and I get a Toshiba error: F3-F100-0003. How could this be? I don't think VirtualBox or the repair disc would have anything to do with Toshiba. I created this disc with a factory preinstallation of Windows 7 on a Toshiba laptop. Did Toshiba put a custom disc image on the computer which will be burned to the disc? Does VirtualBox use the host computers BIOS? (maybe not possible because there was a Windows 7 cursor in front of the error box) Does Microsoft use Toshiba technology in their repair discs?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just got a new battery for my computer, because the old one died. When the old one died, it messed up the files on the hard drive. I used a windows xp pro installation disc to wipe the hard drive (or delete the partition), then set it as slave with another hard drive as master. Both hard drives are were wiped clean, nothing on them, and now the computer is actually running pretty fast. So, I tried to run the Windows 7 installation cd to install Windows 7 (Nyaha! Redundency!) to the new primary drive. Here's the problem. It won't boot the disc. I went to the BIOS and set it to boot the CD/ROM first, second, and last. It still won't boot the Windows 7 CD. Now, I have 3 CDs for Windows 7, my family has three different computers. I tried the 64 bit one, and the two 32 bit one's, but it will. Not. Work. It just does not boot any of them. It says "Boot Failure from Previous Device.
