How to install a dual boot xp and win 7 installation

You must first back up all your personal data. Then, if your hard disk contains an empty partition, boot from the windows 7 dvd and choose the empty partition. If your hard disk is not partitioned you partition. I use Easeus Partition Manager Home. It calculates the free space in mb. 1024 MB is 1 GB. You will need a minimum of 12 GB. The drive says 16 GB but, 12 GB will do fine. Just make sure that you back up your data first.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite M50D-A-10W passing me all nuts "reboot and select proper boot device."

    This has happened before and it was solved by ctr-alt-del and F12 to get into the BIOS where the date went back to some time in 2010 - after put so far and to change the boot device, everything worked fine... until the next day.

    Now I get the screen "reboot and select good boot device ', but the F12 key does not; I also tried F2... the message keep multiplying, no BIOS...
    Help, please!

    In some cases the BIOS is only accessible by pressing the button turn off force on the lower side of the unit.

  • Reboot and select good Boot Device problem - my PC does not start!

    Hi all

    Whenever I turn on my computer I get the message "Reboot and select proper boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected boot device and press a key.

    I checked the diagonistics material and these are the results:

    Test CPU-

    Hard drive: failure of the connection Test - Error Code: BIOHD1

    Memory - past

    I don't think that the issue is a faulty connection. My reason to believe so because I think that I had a virus on my computer (I was not able to confirm) I tried to delete the last time I was able to use the computer. Then I turned off the computer to restart, but unfortunately, that's when I got this error message.

    I had this problem once before (about 3 years ago) and I was not able to solve this problem, so I just stopped using the PC. Then one day my Dad turned on the computer (a few months later) and it worked all of a sudden.

    Anyone know what this problem is? How can I solve this problem?

    Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you very much for your time and effort!

    Additional information:

    It was originally a windows 7 PC, but I have upgraded to windows 10, which is the current operating system.

    Product: HP p6620f

    I managed to start my PC again.

    I have unplugged all connections and left it that way for about 24 hours. Then I plugged everything back in and all of a sudden the PC worked again. I don't know if it will last, but right now it works.

    I'll write another post if something changes.

    I seem to have accidentally deleted the data on the disk.

    Obviously the HARD drive recovery procedure is not possible now because the HARD drive recovery files have been deleted.

    I guess you have not created such recovery media as recommended in the user's manual.

    Well, in this case, you have a chance to order a missing middle of recovery and recover the laptop to factory condition.

    Means of recovery can be ordered here:

  • Long boot time and the gel boot drive selection window

    Hello. I have a problem with my MacBook Pro 13 retina "(2015 at the beginning).

    My mac is about 4 minutes of cranking up about a quarter of the time and it is not related to the problem of the "boot disk select parameters. The computer just hangs before it's anything related to the start-up procedure. It's just a black screen with no interaction with the mouse, no noise and no keyboard input. It does not recognize the 'option key ' (used to get into the disk boot selector) until I pressed it for several minutes, and then the boot drive selector freezes as well.

    I don't have any external drives connected, and already tried SMC reset, reset the PRAM and reinstalling the operating system (normal wipe and wipe any partition).

    I always have Apple Care left. Help, please. Thank you.

    Hi Herojeff02:

    It seems that you have some SSD problems.

    Have you tried to boot safe mode. Try safe mode if your Mac does not commissioning - Apple Support

    You can start in recovery mode by pressing command + R and then using disk utility to check your SSD.

    See the following links: OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

    Resolve startup issues and perform maintenance on disk with disk utility and fsck - Apple Support

    If you have Apple Care, I'd do an appointment at the Genius Bar. It could also be a hardware problem.

  • Satellite C660: message: reboots and select good boot device

    Hello

    I dropped the laptop today literally a few inches from the ground, it slipped from my hand as I was placing it on the ground. He fell flat.

    Now I see the message "reboot and select proper boot device."

    I tried a few different options that I read, and I see the HARD drive in the BIOS F2 thing or whatever it is called. If it is recognized, but I can't seem to move in the message. Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    PS I will need clear instructions, I'm not stupid, but I need to explain. I don't understand some of the pieces.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think that your HARD drive is bad.
    I think that you have not checked it correctly in the BIOS.

    Please go to BIOS once more, by pressing F2.
    Now on the first page, you will see date, time, details of CD/DVD drive and you should also see the details of the disk (size, name)
    You see that?

    Otherwise, the HARD disk is not initialized by the BIOS and this means that, because of the fall, the HARD disk has been damaged.

    take control of the material, I dared try control simply because I happened to pay a substantial amount of money to acer.

    So, it seems, the only option I have left to change is boot/boot mode / (boot uefi/legacy). So what I need to change to restore the boot control, is to change legacy BIOS uefi? Who will install the w8 cack?

    Also what happens if I want to replace the hard drive with an ssd in the near future, is not not to work?

    1. how to record data, if necessary,

    2. put it back to factory settings.

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you are in service again.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
