Error code: 0xc0000185 - laptop fails to find CD drive
Hello
Would be great if you could help me!
After a frozen screen and a hard reboot, my Sony Vaio not boot up but goes rather in the loop of the first showing the Sony logo, then moving to a black screen with a white dot in the upper left corner. I tried to retrieve / maintain the system through F8 but nothing happens outside of the computer go in above mentioned loop again.
I finally gave up saving all the data, so I tried to use the recovery media (CD created when I got the laptop - I don't have any other CD of Windows 8 as it comes preinstalled on the machine) to get it back. So when I come back in fashion relief (i.e. F8) and select start media, the computer does not seem to detect the real CD player, even if I inserted the first recovery CDs. Also, I changed the BIOS setting so that the computer boots from the CD drive first. Finally, I see a bluish light screen font Windows & saying style
"Recovery".
Your PC needs to be repaired. Configuration of boot for your PCIS data missing or contains errors. Leader: \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD
Error code: 0xc0000185
You will need to use the tools of recovery on your installation media. If you don't have any installation media, please contact your system administrator or the computer manufacturer.
Press ESC for UEFI firmware settings
I then press ESC and everything starts all over again :(
Thank you very much in advance for your efforts!

Hello
Try to select the key for Boot Options when the logo appears SONY...
The key is different for different manufacturers... Could possibly be F9 or F11...
You can probably also change this setting in the actual Bios as well...
My HP laptop requires that you press the escape key and then displays a menu with the options F #...
As you noted the EFI error, it could be that your machine is trying to start on the bad device...
No device in reality, but a file on your HARD disk...
When you use EFI\UEFI Bios, the machine starts by starting the EFI file and then is redirected to Windows... Try to set the startup type selection EFI\UEFI Option... The actual name varies a bit depending on the manufacturer.
A lot of machines that run EFI\UEFI Bios won't boot from a DVD drive... They usually start from a flash drive, but can even be difficult... It is a type of 'Security' of the thing.
There are two settings in your BIOS, you may need to disable it to get the machine to boot from the DVD drive...
Start with QUICK START and then SECURE BOOT...

I do not receive an error code for updates failed
original title: update seems to work and indicates successful but when I check some updated why some say failure and why does not receive an error code during the update process?
Whenever I update the installation process says successful but when I went on a lot of my updates to display the details I see "failed." Why is not updating error messages instead of download the update and declaring that it was installed successfully? Why this is happening, seems I can't besure if my updates are actually loaded, even if each notes "installed successfully". I don't want to have to go thro each update to check its status.
Hello

%WINDIR%\WindowsUpdate.log
If you receive an error message on the Microsoft Windows Update Web site or automatic
Service updates, you can use the information in the Windowsupdate.log file to resolve the problem.Open the log file and search for the error codes. Post the logs here so that we can check what exactly is causing the problem.

Hello
I'm trying to sign the BAR file generated from the apk files, but I got this error:
Error: Code signing request has failed because it cannot be recorded. Package-Version-Id [gYACgLU-GLg8YtNMuWU17-BoxsM], [gYAEgM4XsG9ppojbj3zOO9gg-Nc], Id [2189468] Client Application-Version-Id.
I tried to redownlowd the file CSK again and again, did a lot of things but not luck.
Thank you for sending via manifest file. The error is caused by the name of the application you are using. There is a limitation of the number of characters that can be used for an application name. The number of characters will vary according to the type of encoding used, in this case it would be 7.
The workaround for this solution, use our tool is to define an application name by default using Latin based on characters and then add names localized for each supported language. These localized names do not have this limit. For comparison, here's how it's done using BlackBerry Momentics: How to define an Application as the characters name Unicode requires the default name would only be used if a localized name is not available for the language of the user.
Android also supports localized names of applications, so the similar process should work there too.

Hi Robxx,
InPlace upgrade performs a repair facility that will repair the current installation of Windows to the version of the installation DVD.
Note Run a repair installation will not damage files and applications that are currently installed on your computer.
To perform a repair installation of Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2, follow these steps:
- Close all running applications.
- Insert the Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 DVD into the DVD drive of the computer.
- In the settings window, click install now.
Note If Windows does not automatically detect the DVD, follow these steps:
- Click StartCollapse this includes this image
, and then type Drive : \setup.exe in the box to start the search .
Note The Drive placeholder is the drive letter of the computer's DVD.
- In the list of programs , click Setup.exe.
- In the settings window, click install now.
- Click Start
- Click connect to get the latest updates for installation (recommended).
- Type the CD key if you are prompted to do so.
- In the "Windows Installer" page select the operating system you wantto update orInplace.
- Click Yes to accept the Microsoft software license agreement.
- On the which type of installation you want? of the screen, clickupgrade.
- When the installation is complete, restart your computer and try again to install updates.
If your PC is OEM that his pain, because you can only use recovery CD to restore the original state, which means that you must back up all data before restoring.
Most often this error 0 X 8007002 is related to the corruption of the file system that system preparation tool or SFC/scannow is not able to fix so the only option is step mentioned above (upgrade inplace or what we call previous repair installation)
I hope this helps!
Best regards,

HP compaq 6730 b 0303 error code - short dst failed
During the installation of windows updates 04/16/10 my pc failed to boot. HP diagnostic shows 'RSM862-Gfx53A-XD6XHG-60TK03' and '041610-195742-041610 195517. Everything I can find points to a BIOS problem, should I reset BIOS default security? It would help me at all? and what kind of info would be lost? I'll be very grateful for any help. Thank you, schmashe
Your computer is still under warranty? If so, I would definitely contact HP about this error, which is what HP recommends in their article in the knowledge base. Reset the BIOS shouldn't cause any information on your machine to be lost, however, it is usually preferable to have the updated BIOS updated to the most recent available.
