• Satellite C850 - 19(d) - I want to do a dual boot with Linux and Win 8

  Last week I had a Satellite C85O - PSCBWE-03200WGR 19(d)

  Yesterday, I try to make a dual boot with Ubuntu.

  I do not have a start to boot from USB, or iso CD (same choices as for the Toshiba application), and I did one on the bios:
  -Disable secure boot
  -Change UEFI CSM support
  -Save

  On reboot, I get not Toshiba logo, but a black screen with:

  «This product is covered by one or more of the following patents:...» (list of patents...)

  Realtek...

  PXE - E61: Media test faliure check cable
  PXE - MOF: Exit PXE ROM
  "No boot device - insert boot and press a key.

  I can't open the Bios again at F2.

  Which I recover the system?

  Hello

  The unit has been pre-installed with Win 8 64 bit right?

  Change BIOS setting of UEFI to CSM and disabling secure boot prevent Notepad to start 8 to win!

  That's why the device cannot find the boot device and passes to the last option: LAN.
  But given that the laptop can not find bootable system via LAN, the error PXE - E61: Media test faliure check cable appears.

  If you want to use a dual boot, you will need to boot into Win 8
  Win 8 you must create a partition for installing Linux. This can be down in Win 8 disk management. It must reduce a last partition and have to create new free space available.

  Now to start installing Linux you need support... you can burn the iso on DVD or a USB bootable Linux. There are a lot of details on the internet how to create these media.
  Once you have created the bootable USB key, restart your PC with USB connected.
  Press F12 for the boot menu. Now you should see the key USB (if it is bootable!) choose USB and you should be able to install Linux (Ubuntu is great!)

• Re: Tecra S11 - Dual boot Windows 7 and XP

  I installed Windows 7 (from the hidden to the hardrive recovery section) on my new Tecra S11. I would like to know if I can use the Windows XP
  recovery media provided by Toshiba to create a dual boot Windows 7/Windows XP rather than go back to XP?

  Hi dualboot.

  As far as I know it of not possible to create a dual boot with XP and Windows 7 Toshiba Recovery disk. The problem is that the recovery disk erases the entire HARD disk, so there is no option to create a dual boot with another operating system.

  If you want XP too you need to a normal XP installation disk Microsoft or you use virtualization of Windows 7 XP mode, if some n t applications run on Windows 7. ;)

  Hello

  My desktop PC is dual boot with XP and Win 7 Pro 32-bit. Both are retail box versions.

  I would replace the partition with Win 7 Pro 64-bit XP. (That I still keep installing Win 7 32 bit legacy hardware that does not work under a compatibility mode).

  Can I install and activate the new 64-bit partition by using the same product key, or is that 32-bit installation fail/break?

  -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive

  Upgrade version (detail):

  I installed Windows 7.  How do I get a partition or virtual hard disk the hardrive and then install a different OS, so that I can dual-boot between 7 and XP?

  I only know of the VHD, 7 has a "virtual machine" option or is a long process that requires a third-party software?

  Not longer than the partitioning of the HARD drive and install XP - actually quite a bit more fast I should think and gives you the ability to move from one OS to the other without having to reboot the machine.

• How much better the partition of the HARD drive for dual boot: Windows 8 and Linux

  Hello

  I am a newbie in Windows 8, linux, Partition...

  I want to use my new laptop with windows 8 pre-installed on the following:

  Create a Dual Boot Windows 8 / Ubuntu
  Create on my drive C (single disk on my laptop):

  * a partition for the system
  * one for Windows 8
  * one for data and
  least for Ubuntu OS

  My goal is:

  -to install VmWare on Windows 8 and run Splat Checkpoint with virtual machines to make the FCTC laboratories.

  to install GNS3 on Ubuntu for CCNP Labs but with GNS3 to access the files in the data partition

  I have a Toshiba Satellite with 750 GB and 8 GB of RAM.

  According to you, what is the best size for my scores?
  Is there a better way to partition my C drive on my goal?

  Best regards

  I don't know if this is the right section, sorry for that. Feel free to move this thread in the appropriate section *.

  I think the size of partitions depends of the you want to use and install other software.
  So if you have a lot of software which runs under the Windows System I recommend to choose a larger size to win 8 partition.

  However, given that you have a 750 GB HARD drive, you could take 200GB for Win 8, 100 GB to Linux and the rest of the HARD drive size, that you can use for data.

  By the way: I found Nice YouTube video how to create a dual boot using 8 Win and Linux http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_Yd2jK-7Jg

• Tecra A11 (PTSE1A - 00L 005) - Dual boot with XP and Windows 7

  Hello

  Just bought a new Tecra A11 computer laptop running WIN7 Pro. Then downloaded and installΘ_ * virtual XP Pro * _ but not happy with the results that a lot of things he can do my other dual boot 17 "computer laptop with Vista/XP Pro will do.

  Background
  There are 3 partitions on the HARD disk
  1. active primary recovery 1.46 GB (without drive letter)
  2. principal asset C: start 287 Gb
  3 primary Partition 9.2 GB (no drive letter, the unknown application)

  Can I partition the C: drive in sectors 2 X 145 GB and make the new partition _ * assets * _NTFS?

  When I tried to install Xp Pro on another machine current Win7 partitioned as shown above, it 'blue preset' at the point of loading Xp using the RAID SATA CH8M-E charge via my USB FDD controller. Is it because this SATA driver is not current?

  What is the correct SATA driver?

  Does anyone know for sure that this machine will operate in dual boot Win7/Xp Pro?

  Any help much appreciated

  Peter

  Yes, you can dual-boot two versions of Windows.

  What you do is:

  Create recovery discs just in case something happens.
  Retractable C: drive at half the size.
  Create a new partition NTFS for XP.
  Download the driver for the controller SATA F6 www.intel.com
  Copy the SATA drivers on a floppy disk
  Boot from your XP (must have SP2 or SP3 slipstreamed) disc, press F6 when you are prompted to use the SATA driver on the floppy drive (to avoid the BSOD 0x0000007B)
  Configure the installation of XP to install on the partition that you created.

  When you restart, XP may have taken over and ignore Win7.
  In this case, you can restore the Win7 boot loader using EasyBCD (google is your friend)

  If the BIOS has an option of SATA controller Mode, simply activate the IDE Mode instead of the SATA driver.

• Dual Boot El Capitan and the Mavericks?

  Currently I got a MacBook Pro retina 13inch end of 2013 OS X El Capitan. For various reasons, I need to be able to dual boot my mac with OS X Mavericks (I have to run the suite Adobe CS6 for College) but the same time, I want to be able to keep in front of the new software updates and use cc creative cloud at home, would it possible for me to do this or at least get off at Mavericks? The MacBook is not new, and therefore does not have a warranty so I don't have to worry to invalidate even though I'd like to keep hold of my data.

  Thank you

  In theory that Macbook can be found on the Mavericks, since it was initially delivered with the Mavericks, but not the same disc:

  My guess is that you can try this:

  a. make backups of backups backups, TimeMacine at least one backup.

  b. connect an empty external drive: Diskutility opened and partition: partition 1: table of Partition GUID and Mac OS extended (journaled).

  Run CarbonCopyCloner on your startup disk and clone the boot to the external disk, including the recovery Partition.

  Restart after that, while now the Alt (option) key: the startup list will come to the top, choose the newly formed external to start.

  If everything works this external:

  c. stop the machine again once, start it up while pressing CMD + R + Alt (option): This starts the InternetRecovery partition: choose erase and install the OS (original). This should install the Mavericks.

  Restart the mac: it should be in the Mavericks now. Install apps for the Mavericks. Restore your data to user for these applications.

  (d) given that both drives are bootable, you can now start all holding the key Alt (option) and choose the one you want.

  I'm not really sure that I forgot something, but I'm going to ask some people to enter and contribute. Wait until you are satisfied.

• Dual boot Windows 7 and Windows XP

  I bought Windows XP Professional SP3 OEM to install on a Windows 7 Professional preinstalled computer.  When booting from the CD and start installation I cannot select the partition for installation.  If I choose to begin the installation, I guess it starts to install on drive C: and then I get a 'Stop' message that says that it will harm the computer to continue.

  Hello

  I suggest you first create a boot partition on your Windows 7 and then try to install XP (dual boot).

• Dual boot Win 7 and Linux using factory restore DVD

  I have a HP Folio 13-2000, I like a lot

  However, I've been a user of linux (Ubuntu or Mint) for many years.

  I liked the installation of Win 7 64 bit, but he's been hogging my 128 GB SSD.

  To cut a long story short, I screwed up the dual boot installation, (first time!), but at least I have created a series of 3 restore DVD beforehand.

  So, I've been using Mint13 cinnamon and everything is dory hunk, but now I work at the Nepal and the only internet connection I have is a dongle USB CDMA of China Telecom, which works best with Windows.

  So, I installed a 40 GB for Win 7 partition alongside my Linux Mint 15 in a 15 GB partition and tried to do the minimum installation from the DVD, in the hope of having a chance to install in the 40 GB partition.

  I know how to get the boot of Linux back using Rescatux.

  But I could see that he had no other choice, and Win 7 was going to wipe the entire disk.

  Fortunately, I removed the external cable of DVD and has managed to reconstruct my Mint boot 13 again.

  I don't want to delete and reinstall my Linux Mint13 as it works very well and is perfectly up to date, and there are a lot of files in the host partition is.

  So, how can I do a restore factory, without this reformatting all partitions?

  Hi Slackbladder,

  I strongly recommend that you copy the recovery on an external disk partition before you try that. I'm not aware of what specifically happens when you try it. An interesting thing is that in the HP BIOS, there is no option to turn on or turn off EFI mode.  If the partition is big enough it can work.

  Dual boot operating system

  I install Windows XP in c drive and windows 7 in d drive, but when you start the pc without any option shows to choose the operating system. system should start only in the winxp operating system

  Please see: Windows startup is no longer after you install an earlier version of the operating system in a dual-boot configuration

  Best way to solve your problem is to download, install and configure EasyBCD.
