Setup Installation :: Cannot Make Bootable USB Win 8 Install With MS Tool

Oct 1, 2011

Having used Windows 8 satisfactorially for a while now on a VM I'm trying to install it on a real PHYSICAL machine.
To save the hassle of burning DVD's I decided I would like to install from a USB drive however when trying to create a bootable USB stick using the usb tool from the tutorial it always fail with "Cannot copy the files".

I've tried on 3 different USB sticks from different manufacturers so it's almost outside the possibility that all 3 USB sticks are defective. I'm trying to run this on W7 X64.

Any links to an alternative tool that will do this ...

I would like to make a flash drive bootable and I have looked at the utility that HP has called USB Disk Storage Format Tool and every place I have looked to find how to install and use it, the instructions that I have seen do not show up for me when I run the program. Where I can get some good instructions on how to create the flash drive.

Apps / Software :: Partition Wizard - How To Create BOOTABLE USB Drive

Nov 1, 2013

Partition wizard - seems no way to create a USB bootable media -- if your PC doesn't have a physical DVD drive even the PAID PRO version doesn't show the create bootable media option. Machine doesn't have bootable CD.

Gone back to the FREE GPARTED program -- although it can take a lot longer to run when re-sizing / moving partitions.

(Another method -- a bit extreme though is to install Partition wizard on a Windows to Go system !!!)

The Partition wizard website is totally confusing too it shows a USB version but how to obtain it is unclear and the documentation is not good either.

Maintenance :: Windows 8 - Free Disk Space Monitoring Tool?

Mar 3, 2013

One of my favorite features of Windows Explorer was that it told me the free disk space in the status bar. Since Windows Vista, you also had the ability to see the free space on hard drives across the network.

Now in Windows 8 you can't even in the least see the free space on the status bar of your own pc, let alone those across the network, and for someone who's constantly moving files across my home network, it's becoming a bit of a hassle.

I don't think there's away to to restore this functionality (already installed the ClassicShell program) so absent of that, is there a free disk space monitoring tool recommended? I'm mainly looking for one that has a system tray function that can tell me the amount of free space I have left, either in percentage form, or megabyte form, or gigabyte form, whatever.

Security :: Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool Runs Daily?

Aug 14, 2014

I just looked at the Malicious Software Removal Tool log which seems to be located in the following folder,

%windir%debugmrt.log

Looking at the log it seems to be running daily as there is an entry for each day since I installed Windows 8.1

I thought this tool ran once and then deleted itself. Also I'm pretty sure in Vista and W7 ? that there was only a monthly entry.

Windows 8 - 2.2 TB Infinity (No Bootable Device) Loop

Jan 28, 2014

I was just on my computer about an hour ago when it froze up and I had to restart it.

Upon restarting it everything was normal until I ended up getting a screen w/ a loading bar saying "2.2 TB Infinity: Press any key to enter boot menu". At first I just let it load - which brought me to a black screen saying "No bootable device found, press any key to reset". And of course, when I pressed the key the computer reset. Then it happened again - this time I tried pressing a key - nothing. The loading bar stopped (like it was trying to bring up the boot menu) but nonetheless it brought me back to the black screen once again telling me to press a key to reset. Over and over again this happens - I tried inserting my Windows 8 CD; nothing.

My computer is a Cyberpower PC
MSI Motherboard
Windows 8

Windows 8 - Cloned Hard Disk Is Not Bootable?

Mar 9, 2013

My hard disk was always full (itunes/picasa filling it with multiple backups etc); so decided to upgrade to a whopping 1tb. I bought the HDD and a cradle; and have created a clone of all my files and settings onto the new monster using an application. I want to copy all my settings across - Virtual DJ takes best part of a day to configure for example.

Downside is, the new disk is not bootable; and I cannot make it bootable however I try.

I have made the partition active using "diskmanger"

I have gone to the drive and typed in admin mode in command prompt:

g:
cd/boot
bootsect g:

I have also tried:

Bcdedit /import C:BootBCD.

This hasn't worked, so tried this:

Bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device partition=G:

TBH - don't really understand the commends, just trying everything I can!

XPS One 2710. I updated to Windows 8.1 via Windows store today. The installation went fine but it couldn't reboot because of "no bootable device". The setup/bios is set up on uefi mode/safetymode on.

No Bootable Device - Error On Windows 8 Acer M5 Laptop

Feb 3, 2014

I have an Acer M5-581T laptop with windows 8.1 (windows 8 was already installed when this laptop was bought) and has been running fine since i received it. Last night I accidentally dropped the the right hand side of my computer about 2 or 3 inches but no more. I didn't think anything of it until this morning when i tried to start up my computer and was successful until when i tried to open an application on my desktop and my computer froze. Also when i started up my computer i heard a scratching or cracking sound in the right hand side and this continued for the nect couple times i tried to restart my computer.

So, after it froze I restarted my computer just by holding the power button and upon turning it on again after the Acer start up screen i got the message "No bootable device. Hit any key." in a blue box. Hitting any key did nothing obviously. After some research i was able to press F2 and open up BIOS but with messing around with the settings and even changing in secure mode from UEFI and Legacy BIOS doesn't seem to work. Pressing control+alt+delete doesnt work, it only restarts my laptop. I haven't really done anything like try to change my laptop from windows 8 to windows 7 so it is still windows 8.1.

Setup Installation :: Windows 8 Won't Detect Bootable Ubuntu USB Stick

Apr 24, 2014

So I'm trying to run dual OS on my new windows 8 machine. I made a bootable Ubuntu 14.04 usb stick using Rufus, disabled secure boot and proceeded in attempting to install the system. However, (settings->general->advanced startup->use a device) won't detect my bootable USB. It won't boot from it at startup either, no matter how much I fiddle with the UEFI settings.

Well, I guess that is not entirely true, as I managed to get it to boot and install ubuntu after switching the UEFI boot settings to legacy boot. But windows 8 does not work under that option, so I'm having to go and change the UEFI boot setting every time I wish to use a different OS.

How To Use Snipping Tool In Metro

When I want to get a copy of the screen I end up going back to the Metro screen to start up the snipping tool and it opens in the Desktop, but I need it in the Metro area to get a copy of my screen in the browser. I have had to resort to the old fashioned way of getting a print screen and pasting it into Paint then saving it...

Bottom Tool / Taskbar Now Missing When In IE?

Jan 22, 2014

I'm running 8.1 on an HP desktop, with IE version 11.0.2.

Some time in the past week or so, the bar at the bottom of the page when I am in a browser session, launched from the desktop, no longer appears. It's the one that usually shows the Connection, Safe to Eject, my Norton status, Volume icons, date/time, etc. I use automatic Windows updates, so I'm kind of assuming it was something there that did it...but don't know for sure.

All I want to know is How Do I Get It Back? I especially need that volume control icon, so I can mute all the ads when I open a news video on Yahoo, Bing, or MSN.

This bar shows just fine when I'm looking at the Desktop screen, just not in the browsers.

Snipping Tool Pics - Capture Already Exists

Feb 24, 2014

I can view it in my menu under "recent items" but the home of the file is shown in the photo. Why is it not on my desktop as the file sting says it is?

I am trying to analyse boot performance using this tool on 8.1 Pro.

Windows Performance Analyzer

I have already updated to the latest version of ADK but after rebooting it fails. I have Windows 6.3.9600 Build 9600 and Performance Recorder version 6.3.9600.16384(winblue_rtm.130821-1623) which I downloaded yesterday from MS.

Maintenance :: Snipping Tool - Calculator Files Getting Corrupted In 8.1

Mar 24, 2014

After running sfc /scannow some time ago, it found file corruption and eventually I found that the corrupted files were Snipping Tool files and one Calculator file getting corrupted in 8.1 by viewing the sfcdetails.txt file (attached). When I run the sfc command every few days, I find that Snipping Tool files are corrupted again. This started after upgrading from Windows 8 to 8.1. This is very strange. What would cause only a Calculator file and usually Snipping Tool files to keep getting corrupted when there are so many other system files?
