• Windows Vista fails to boot after updates combined with Mcafee instalation.

  The laptop is a 2007 medion mim2330 running 32 bit vista Basic.  He was protected by Bullguard, but it had expired and has been exceeded. A message appeared on the screen WARNING french that he had been infected by a virus - it does not look official and I am not sure that he clicked on the option to download solution - however the phone still worked. I had a Mcafee 3 user license and wanted to install it so I uninstalled bullguard and installed Mcafee process windows crashed and failed to WINDOWS START SCREEN appeared and I was unable to boot windown in any mode. I gave the phone to a knowledgeable friend who said it was a virus, but did not know that one - he said, it has been deleted, all hardware tests had been run and it was perfect. It has resized the partition of disk doing a great score including a remains a very small. He reloaded windows with avast antivirus and gave the laptop back to work. I wanted to use the Mcafee I had paid for, so I uninstalled avast and installed Mcafee. Everything went well and the laptop worked - however the mcafee warning sign came up saying scan in real time has been disabled - he turned back, but a few minutes it turned off again. I have contacted Mcafee used virtual tech then chatted in their eng who suspected a virus, a virus scanner from mcafee, rather than the laptop - it was very good. While the computer restarts windows laptop crashed and the WINDOWS FAILED to START SCREEN has appeared. I gave it back to my friend who reloaded windows and avast and widely used for a week. When we got it back avast had been removed and there was Windows Defender - didn't light alarm does not. We loaded on Mcafee and had plenty of updates (and hours) then tried windows live messenger telling to SP1 and SP2 are necessary. They were charged after an eternity using automatic updates of windows. After everything has been loaded on a final restart gave place WINDOWS failed to START screen and does not start in any mode. I thought it might be linked to the abduction of an antivirus and the installation of another, so I put in the original Windows restore disc in and formatted the large partition, then reloaded windows and all its drivers then went on updates auto and auto updates for 24 hours until what he said to date. Installed mcafee - no problem, then tried windows live essentials that required sp1 and SP2 - used auto updates to download SP1. When this is completed there were two messages from Mcafee saying restart the pc and the other problem Center and soln windows saying an upate problem was found to go online to find the solution, I checked windows update history and SP1 and all other updates were installed successfully, so I rebooted the laptop - at which point it crashed and WINDOWS has no PU START APPEARED to-it wont start in any mode. Suggestions as to the cause and or how to make the process of restoration in less time - much appreciated. We have a same laptop bought at the same time, running the same original software and Mcafee - never a single problem. Thank you very much

  Usually, this means that Windows could not load the packages of metadata for some devices on your computer. If you do not already have it, you can run chkdsk/r (there is a space between thek and /) to verify the integrity of your hard drive. Follow the steps below:

  1. reboot your computer

  2. immediately press theF8 key until you reach the Advanced Boot Options menu

  3. Select Safe Mode with command prompt.

  4. at the command prompt, typechkdsk/r

• Windows Easy Install in Fusion 3.1 - does not work with images of XPSP2, only XPSP3?

  I am sure that that used to work before merge update itself, so I guess that's 3.1 who broke this - how can I install easy to work with images of XPSP2? My foreign XP images are a mixture of XPSP2 and XPSP3 - I managed to create the two guys before, but now, Easy Install only works with images XPSP3.

  How can I get the old behaviour back?

  > Is your \FRENCH\WINXP\PRO_WITH_SP2\ ISO one of the MSDN disks with several operating systems on it? We do not support Easy Install for those, because we cannot tell which version you want to install.

  > Yes, it is - there are... \FRENCH \WINXP\PRO_WITH_SP2, \HOME_WITH_SP2, and ...\TABLETPC2005 out there. The reason why I started this thread, however, is that I did with success of virtual machines of this same image with VMWare 3.0.x versions, so that the functionality has been lost by moving to 3.1.

• NAT very easy install VM, but not in another

  My host computer is a laptop to Windows 7 with a lot of memory and VT (virtualization on chip). I use most of the time wireless.

  I am running CentOS 6.0 64-bit in VMware Player 3.1.4.

  When I install CentOS with 'Easy Install', NAT works great - I can access the Internet. Easy installation, however, has two disadvantages: (1) it installs a minimal configuration instead of a developer workstation. (2) the system of files/Boot is a bit small; I tried to install the updates, and an update of the kernel has complained that he needed more space in / Boot.

  When I get around easily to install and install CentOS myself, I can build it as a developer, workstation and make/boot any size desired, but NAT does not work! Firefox says 'server not found '.

  I examined the .vmx files and changed a few things, but nothing seems to work. Any ideas? BTW, my knowledge of networking is extremely limited, so please do not say things like "oh, just reconfigure a DHCP. Instructions step by step.

  Thank you!

  Important entries for DHCP are missing from/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

  BOOTPROTO = 'dhcp '.
  ONBOOT = "yes".

  The MTU = "1500" may not be as important in this case, but you can also add this if you want.

• "Easy Install cannot install VMware tools"

  As I began to create a virtual machine for Ubuntu 12.10, VMware Player displays a message indicating that it recognizes this OS and install it and VMware Tools with Easy Install. "Good idea," I thought to myself 'I am all in favor of easy'.

  And the installation went great, until VMware Player try to install VMware Tools. This is where the process has frozen and not exceeded. Now, whenever I try to start my VM the screen says "install VMware Tools... Please wait. »

  How can I fix?

  Personally speaking General and I use Easy Install, especially with the Linux Distros!   With some Easy Install distributions do not properly size the volume/boot, causing issues later during the upgrade of nuclei.  I don't like what he does with it two CD/DVD of configuration and how it leaves things when doing even if it can be cleaned manually to the top.

  I recommend not to use is installed and instead select "I will install the operating system later" and then create a manual installation of the Linux operating system and then install VMware Tools then.

• Partition too small BOOTCAMP?

  Hello world

  I have a small question about Boot Camp.

  Yesterday, I installed Boot Camp on a 500GB partition created with Boot Camp. I realized that on Windows, it says that my Windows disc is only 465 GB and even with the HARD of Macintosh disk that is 500 GB. On OS X (10.9.5), it shows the two 500 GB drives. I remember the time after installation of Windows, there was a slight reduction in space, but not 35 GB. Is this correct?

  

  Thanks a lot for your time!

  ~ Mathias

  OS X Terminal, please after the release of

  sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

  This is a problem with how disk space is calculated by the software. You don't waste any space, but the calculations are different. Generally, the disks have sectors of 512 bytes. "GB" is generally calculated as (sectors * 2 / 1000 * 1000 * 1000) while "GiB" is (sectors * 2 / 1024 * 1024 * 1024).

• Clean install of Windows 7 - partitioning and formatting with a new drive

  I tried two installs with Windows 7 Ultimate edition.  The first is a straight out of the box and installed in a laptop SATA drive.  Windows 7 has created two partitions, a small partition of specific recovery and system information, and another large partition to install Windows 7 software.  It is very good.

  Then I tried a new installation formattiing the reader as one big partition.  Windows 7 does not divide the disk into two partitions, only one on which the software of Windows 7 has been installed.

  The question: how it installs a Windows 7 for the two partitions on a formatted drive?  Delete the existing partition and then start installation?

  Hello Askit,

  When you install Windows 7, the installation program will by default create a partition of 100 MB with the Windows partition system. The system partition is created to meet a requirement of Bitlocker startup files and Windows files are found on separate partitions.

  When boot you from the DVD to perform a clean installation of Windows 7, the installation program will create the 100 MB system partition in the following conditions:

  • There is not a partition system on the machine
  • The system does not have 3 existing partitions
  • There is space on the disk for the extra partition

  In response to your question, Yes, the best way to get these partitions is to delete the partition and let the windows to their creation.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you

• How to create a dual boot with Vista installed on my Satellite U400?

  Hello

  I just bought a U400 - 17 H with vista installed on the HARD drive. I would like to create a dual boot with XP Pro.

  I have only a drive HARD aleady with 2 partitions (1 for vista) + 1 for data.

  Is it easily to create a new partition ok (I guess only on vista)
  but is there a program dedicated to install another OS and create a dual boot.

  Please help me because I like many things the other way around. I'm sure it's possible, but what are the right process to have at the end of two BONES and the choice at the start of the laptop

  Thank you

  Hello!

  Create a new partition for Windows XP and install it. There is no problem.

  After that, you need to restore the Windows Vista boot loader. You can do this with EasyBCD. Install and start the program.
  Go to the tab "Add/Remove entries". You will see that there is only one option available in the bootloader of Vista at the moment. In the "Add an entry" section, replace the drive in the menu drop-down of C:\ E:\. Change Type "Windows NT / 2 k/XP / 2 k 3" and the name of "Microsoft Windows XP". Then click on 'Add an entry' and 'save '.
  Then go to the "Manage Bootloader" tab make sure "Reinstall the Vista Bootloader" is selected, then click on "write the MBR.

  Now you can restart the laptop and you should have a full system dual boot to work.

  Good bye

• How to install Windows XP on a Windows Vista using Vista workstation to install XP in a separate mode dual-boot partition.

  If you have a Windows XP workstation it is a piece of cake to install Windows Vista on the same workstation using the dual-boot using a separate on the same hard disk partition...  However, the main centre recently received a large number of donations new jobs Lenovo ThinkCentre with factory installed and perfectly running Vista operating systems.  Question: Is there a procedure that would allow using Vista to install Windows XP on these workstations dual-boot mode?  Workstations must be used in a class of main center where we need to teach using either XP or Vista depending on student needs.   A second hard drive would allow such a facility.  But we would like to use a 2nd partition on the existing hard disk of Vista to install XP.  However, Microsoft has always included features in its Windows operating systems that overcome by using the current operating system to install an older version of the OS.  There must be a work around there somewhere.  Thanks for your help.

  If you have any available records of vista, you could make a partition in disk management (right click computer, manage, enable the UAC and then go into disk management.)  Shrink the partition and format it with NTFS free space.)  Then boot from the XP disc and install it.  Once you have completed the installation of xp. Start the vista disc and go to the repair options.  Go to a command prompt and type "bootrec.exe /fixboot" (without the quotes) and press ENTER.  After restart, you should see a start with windows vista and xp listed menu.  If xp is not in the list, let me know and I can tell you how to add it.

• How do I set up a dual boot Vista and XP with 2 hard drives?

  Dual boot Vista and XP with 2 hard drives

  I tried to get my computer has a separate hard drive put in place that lets me run Windows XP or Windows Vista. I tried the path of the CMD, but I could do things wrong with that because the news NTLDR appeared much too different info from Vista. Currently, I have deleted this change to the startup configuration. I want to know what I have to do to get these two to be able to boot. I noticed problems similar to mine, but the answer always seems to be a software that would cost me money.

  Thank you

  Tevans95

  Hello Tevans95,

  You cannot install two different operating systems on two different disks. For a dual-boot environment, you must install both XP and Vista on the same drive with different partitions.

  In addition, you must install Windows XP first and then Windows Vista.

  You can check the items below which will give you information on Dual boot.

  Install multiple operating systems (multiboot)

  Set up a dual-boot system

  Change the default operating system for startup (multiboot)

  There is no software that can help you to install XP and Vista on different drives.

  Thank you

• How to restore the windows boot partition 8

  During the formatting of some new partitions I created, I accidentally restructured my windows boot partition 8.

  My windows system partition 8 (containing all my files and soforth) did not suffer. When I inserted the disc of windows 8, I didn't see no simple method to reinstall my windows 8 boot partition without wiping the entire system (and other operating systems that I have on this computer).

  Is there a simple way to repair my boot partition without harming my other partitions?

  Hello

  Thanks for the update.

  Try another set of orders. Follow the same steps provided in my previous steps to get the command prompt. Type the following commands and press ENTER after each:

  bcdedit/set {default} partition device = c:
  bcdedit/set {default} osdevice partition = c:
  bcdedit/set {bootmgr} partition device = c:

   

  Check if you are able to boot in Windows 8.
