• How to fix shortcuts, boot record (MBR) principal and danaged of Configuration data (BCD) start by Alureon.A Trojan horse.

  My windows xp computer has been infected by a Trojan called Alureon.A. I was able to remove this virus, but all my shortcut icons are not displayed, and I understand that my master boot record (MBR) and boot configuration data (BCD) were damaged. How can I repair this damage?
  Thank you.

  Hi Rjjb2006,

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1: You can run the fix it from the link below and check the results.

  Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks

  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/system_maintenance_for_windows

  Method 2: You can read the article of Basr Microsoft Knowledge for the repair of the specific element that causes Windows not to load not.

  Refer to the first method in the article mentioned:

  Computer stops responding with a black screen when you start Windows XP

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314503

  Method 3: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malware

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: While running scan on the hard drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when scanning try to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.

  I hope this helps.

• Convert disk dual boot Mac MBR to GPT (GUID)

  Hello.

  I use a Macbook Pro 13 in. Non-retine mid-2012. I currently have OS X 10.8.4 (I think, something of 10.8) double booted with Windows 7 Home Premium x 64. My boot drive is a 128 GB SSD that came with the laptop. I want to convert this startup disk to the GPT (GUID) Partition Table, so I can install Ubuntu with the three operating systems. He came in TPG, I think, but I broke the table to partition a bit backward and had to wipe the disk and do a recovery Internet reinstall (downgrade OS X 10.9 to 10.8) and * sigh * reinstall Windows. Anyway,.

  Is there a way I can convert the MBR to GPT (GUID) partition table without ruining all the data or perform some operating systems unbootable?

  Correction: I have disk configuration in a hybrid MBR, so my question is: is it possible to switch the hybrid MBR GPT partition without having to wipe the drive and reinstall operating systems?

• Windows Installer error saying that my drive's mbr, although it is really TPG.

  Hello

  I really hope you can help me with my problem.

  I have a retina of Macbook pro mid 2012 with a 256 GB ssd, installed with El captain.

  I am train via boot camp to make a partition with Windows 10.

  Windows setup via a San Disk 16 GB USB 3.0 purchased for this purpose.

  Everything going smoothly until the part where you install windows.

  Boot camp every reboot my Mac it comes up with a black screen saying "Non system disk. Press any key to restart '.

  No matter what button I press it is not restart. I found myself pressing the power button until it stop. Then put it on again and pressing the ALT key.

  Here I have two options Macintosh HD or EFI boot. I choose to start EFI. Windows Installer starts.

  During the windows setup process where you choose which partition you want to install top says (after that I formatted to ntfs):

  (translated from Danish) "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is the MBR. In EFI systems windows can be installed only on GPT disks.

  Funny, it's just that my ssd is TPG. My USB drive is as well, I tried formatting with my mac, a computer windows and Rufus. All said that it is the TPG.

  I tried to format my USB drive and partition my ssd using only the discutility and not the boot camp program. Same result.

  I tried to make the unallocated space on my ssd so that install Windows could make the partition it self (I read this discussion in here) does not work either.

  I tried with gdisk and the terminal to do what was suggested in another threat here, but the terminal told me that the partitions were on top of the other or something like that. And who were my technical abilities and courage run out. I would ruin not rather my precious Mac and terminal gave a few warnings.

  Can someone help me? I would be very grateful.

  You have a few different questions.

  1. your drive is a GPT with a hybrid MBR disk. Check the output of the following command in Terminal

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  2. If you choose to boot from USB EFI and BCA creates a hybrid MBR, you will get the error you describe.

  3. your USB drive isn't supposed to be TPG, it takes a FAT/MBR.

  4. When you press the button works / stop, the partial installation of Windows will appear when you use the Alt key. Information Windows startup is now resident on the Mac's EFI partition, but it is not complete yet. Your icon USB EFI will restart Windows Setup.

  5. do you have a Time Machine backup of Mac OS X?

• boot camp and windows 10

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows with Boot Camp Assistant. I'm exactly as shown in all directions. I have a 2012 end iMac 21.5 ". It has a 1 terabyte internal hard drive. I've updated to the latest version of Mac OS x. I downloaded a legal Windows 10 professional image, although it seems not matter since I can't install it. Anyway. I followed all the instructions of the Boot Camp Assistant. I use an external hard drive for WININSTALL. Wizard Boot Camp works very well until it's time to create the partition on the hard disk called Bootcamp. It creates the partition, but does not do anything in this partition. Wizard Boot Camp attempts to boot from the new partition, but obviosly, there is nothing there. I tried to start the WININSTALL disc, who starts and wants to install Windows 10, but he cannot or will not be installed on the Bootcamp partition. You know what says the error message, because others have told you what he said, so I won't repeat. Obviously, Boot Camp Assistant does not use GPT, but rather of MBR to create the Bootcamp partition. I have tried many, many, many times to use Boot Camp Assistant to install 10 Windows internal hard disk, but each time he did exactly the same thing. I guess I'm crazy for trying to do the same thing so many times. Of course, there is something wrong with my iMac, because it seems that others are able to install Windows 10 on their iMac. So, would someone please tell me how to fix the problem so that I can install 10 Windows internal hard disk from the iMac?

  You need a USB2 Flash 8 + GB drive. You may use an external HARD disk, it is still problematic.

  It creates the partition, but does not do anything in this partition.

  BCA is not supposed to, until the Windows Installer starts and copies the files to the internal drive to put Windows on the internal drive. WININSTALL contains all the files needed to install Windows.

  EFI boot needs a GPT disk, the BIOS legacy mode needs a hybrid MBR (collection on a GPT disk standard). Your Mac 2012 preUEFI supports only the MBR properly. EFI boot not work correctly and cause driver problems.

  Run the wizard of BC and delete the current partition. Disconnect the external storage, perform the following two procedures

  How to reset the NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

  Run the BCA and use a flashdrive USB2 (not a HARD drive). The USB key will be erased/formatted. The content of the ISO or Windows 10 DVD will be copied on this flash drive with drivers Apple supporting restart environment that supports your keyboard and mouse and display. Do not interrupt the installation in any way using the Alt/Option key.

• Cannot use the Windows Partition

  So, I have seen very similar messages and followed several forums, but I can't yet figure out what to do next.

  I have 8.1 Windows on my Mac.  I wanted to repartition the Windows partition and make bigger it because I was running low on space, and the Windows partition is what I use it mostly for graduate studies.  About a year ago, I took an easy youtube video and used Mini Wizard Partition re-partition space and it worked perfectly.  I have found the same video and tried to repartition the Windows partition again, but apparently I royally screwed up.

  My BootCamp is not yet visible more in disk utility.  Under the partitions, there is an option called "disk0s4" greyed, but I'm not allowed to do something with it.  I can't verify or repair.  If I go to Applications, BootCamp Assistant is there, but he wants me to start the installation of BootCamp.  It was not an option to restart Windows more, and when I turned on with alt + market, Windows was not an option more.

  I followed this tutorial:

  http://nerdr.com/bootcamp-partition-lost-repairing-Mac-partitions/

  and when I restarted my Mac, restart Windows was an option. So I thought that I fixed it! EVIL.  My screen was black and said: 'Missing Operating System '.

  I downloaded EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard for Mac (because it was another suggestion), and I was able to recover and see the files on the NTFS disk0s4, so I'm quite positive, they have not all been completely erased.  Or at least the part of basic Windows is still there.  I can't recover the drive to anything, because it tells me that I will just be fitness on the same drive, and I honestly don't know how to retrieve these files will help with the side of the partition of things.

  I also used TestDisk and it seemed to find my missing partition, but in the middle of analysing it, it says something like "disk too small."  After further research, I went through and took only the most recent score that seemed to be deleted with NTFS, and when you are trying to do, it would allow me to make a 'logic' partition because he said something in red, as 'bad file.'

  My Mac still works perfectly, but I'm terribly need to recover my windows.

• Bootcamp for repair after changing partitions in El Capitan

  (For a better format version, please visit this link.) I did have luck with answers on itself)

  I wanted to create a shared partition that I could access between my install Bootcamp and OS X I have been on Yosemite and utility disk would allow me to resize or create new partitions, but I heard that I could do it by upgrading to El Capitan.

  It worked well, I could reduce my OSX partition and create a new partition with the remaining space, however, when I try to start directly in my bootcamp partition running Windows 8.1, I now get an error:

  
  Your PC needs to be repaired 
  
  An unexpected error has occurred. 
  
  Error code: 0xc000000e 
  

  According to some messages that I found, this may indicate that the hybrid MBR is damaged and needs to be recreated, so I tried this by following this link.

  I also tried to boot into a Windows and running recovery disk

  bootrec /rebuildbcd 

  but it does not work. It returns

  The requested system device cannot be found. 

  So, looks like it has something to do with my EFI partition, because according to other messages, maybe I need to assign a drive letter to the EFI partition, but it does not appear when I use diskpart. I see the output similar to:

  
  > list vol 
  
  Volume ### Ltr Label        Fs  Type      Size    Status 
  
  ---------- --- ------------ ----- --------- -------- ---------- 
  
  Volume 0 E IRV_CCSA_X6      UDF  DVD-ROM  4120 MB  Healthy 
  
  Volume 1 C BOOTCAMP        NTFS  Partition 93 GB    Healthy 
  
  Volume 2 D Removable                        0 B      No Media 
  

  However, I think that's because I see when I run diskutil in OS x:

  
  $ diskutil list 
  
  /dev/disk0 (internal, physical): 
  
   #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER

  I even tried refined, that doesn't seem to change anything.

  Another note, my Windows partition is fine, because I can always start using Parallels, just a direct start in Bootcamp is not.

  I am quite confused where to go from here. Nothing seems to work and I've tried several dozen approaches with no luck. How can I fix Bootcamp?

  Article Nerder is one of the worst possible solutions and causes more data loss. It also provides a clear warning. Can you post the output of the following OS X Terminal commands?

  diskutil list

  Cs diskutil list

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

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  The "sudo" commands will prompt to enter your password, and there do not appear to come back. You can also see caution against improper use 'sudo' and the potential loss of data due to an "abuse" of the order.

• Do not start after installing Bootcamp find for dual boot

  You don't have a training camp entry in the MBR.

  Please download GPT Fdisk from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gptfdisk/ and install it. Once the GPT Fdisk is installed, perform the following steps.

  Rebuild the MBR to match the new GPT information so reset the hybrid MBR. Use by default for other issues (such as codes of the partition). The only values that need changes are the flags of Boot and step 10. Accept all other default settings that offers Gdisk. For example, see the Q & A of the sample. These steps can be repeated if you make a mistake, before we get to step 12, otherwise start at step 1 for these steps. Step 6a of the numbers that are typed with a space between the numbers. Please see le Q & A sample before performing these steps.

  1. Sudo gdisk/dev/rdisk0
  2. P (print from parts list)
  3. R (Recover)
  4. O (current MBR hybrid in block letters)
  5. H (chooses hybrid)
  6. Partitioning numbers be hybridized: 2 3 4
  7. Y (good for the GRUB question)
  8. (Indicator boot part 2) N
  9. N (part 3-flag of boot)
  10. Y (boot indicator part 4 make the bootable NTFS partition)
  11. O (current MBR hybrid in block letters)
  12. W (Write new MBR)
  13. Y (yes! write the new MBR)
  14. Reset

  Here's Q & A sample for this section. Please note the press enter/return.

  Partition of EFI GPT (0xEE) place first in the MBR (good for GRUB)? (Y/N): Y

  Create entry for the #2 GPT partition (partition MBR #2)

  Enter a hex code MBR (default AF): press enter/return

  Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): N

  Create entry for the #3 GPT partition (partition MBR #3)

  Enter a hex code MBR (default AB): press enter/return

  Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): N

  Create entry for the #4 GPT partition (partition MBR #4)

  Enter a hex code MBR (default 07): press enter/return

  Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): Y

  Test 1 - Bootcamp Volume appears in the viewfinder?

  Test 2 - you see the files in the Bootcamp Volume?

  Test 3 - you can select Bootcamp in system-> startup disk preferences?

  Test 4 - If Test 3 was successful, select Bootcamp and click on restart.

• Black screen after restart of the Bootcamp Assistant

  Hello

  I understand that 10 Windows is not supported with the MBP Late 2011 officially by Apple, I have it working earlier today and had no problems at all. I tried to add another partition for windows side so that I would be able to install Deep Freeze on Windows have a clean install of Windows every time that I boot in there and have all my programs and files on what would have been called "Local D.

  I deleted the Windows partition and I deleted the first player who had only 200 MB normally created from windows which I believe that holds the MBR for the old Windows Installer install. I tried to create 2 different partitions in disk utility and that the load bootcamp. He said well obviously not, because the reader must be around to do this, I did the road together again, put my Windows 10 disc in and let bootcamp.

  I wanted the reader to have 51 GB of bootcamp, that I would use 300 GB for the 'Local D' drive and the rest of the SSD 1 TB drive, I got OS X El Capitan. If at this point, I have X amount of GB to OS X and 51 GB will be used so that the wizard has done for me, once the wizard bootcamp is made, it will restart OS X and brings me to a gray screen. Normally, it's just going to continue in the installation of Windows, but it takes me to a black screen and does nothing else. Is this by far where can I fix? I even tried simply to launch the installation of Windows Installer directly from the drive itself without going through installation of bootcamp by holding ALT and selecting the drive and he finally took to the installation without any problem and now it goes to a black screen and does not change even.

  And for those wondering, no I do not get a flashing cursor in the upper left corner of my screen. Its completely black.

  You have deleted the EFI Partition from Mac. Not a very good idea. She does not hold the MBR. Your Mac uses a hybrid MBR. The MBR and the boot for Windows Manager are two separate entities.

  I tried to create 2 different partitions in disk utility and that the load bootcamp. He said well obviously not, because the reader must be around to do this, I did the road together again, put my Windows 10 disc in and let bootcamp.

  Disk utility is now considered an invalid drive due to a missing EFI partition. How did you again the reader "XV"? If you start from W10 in the optical drive, it is no Bootcamp involved more.

• Install Windows 8 on external drive Thunderbolt - Windows could not prepare the computer to begin the next phase of installation

  Hi all

  I'm at my wit's end trying to install windows 8. Let me start at the beginning: I used to have windows running on my Mac Pro ssd internal 8.1, installed via bootcamp. It worked well for a while, and then refused to start, gives me a blue screen KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE. Despite some advice from lonely T, I was unable to fix and ended up wiping the partition and relocation, again via bootcamp. Yet once again, it worked for a few months, then the same problem. I made this one last time, and it only lasted 2 days... So I gave bootcamp.

  I think that the hybrid MBR partition scheme that implements bootcamp is the culprit, but I don't really have evidence to substantiate this claim. In any case, I tried to install windows in EFI mode. (If I understand correctly, the hybrid MBR is set up to allow windows to install in legacy BIOS mode, but that windows 8 may now install efi, which supports my Mac Pro mode.) My Mac is the new Mac Pro (end of 2013, trash in shape), and I can say short UEFI 2.0 (I have the latest efi update from apple installed).

  The method I'm trying:

  1. create a new partition in HFS + on my external drive using disk utility. The drive has now it's efi partition and partition empty 750Go I want to install windows a 1.25 TB storage partition that I use with my mac. It has a GPT. I formatted HFS + and no FAT, because I think that disk utility creates the same hybrid-MBR as training camp every time a FAT partition is created.

  2. use gdisk to confirm that the disc does not have a hybrid-MBR. (sudo/dev/disk1 gdisk watch MBR: protection)

  3 restart my mac and hold the possibility to put in place to bring up the boot efi menu.

  4. Select the EFI_Boot DVD icon (that's the windows 8 install dvd that I have in my superdrive USB drive)

  5. go in the menus of the disk selection screen installation and delete the partition in HFS +, I created to install windows on (the format option is not available)

  6. now select "Unallocated space" on the good drive and click Next.

  The problem:

  Partitioning seems to go ok (there is no feedback on this basis, but it proceeds to the next screen, and all new partitions expected are there if I check diskutil list later). He said it is "copy of windows files", but then stops with the error "Windows has no prepare the computer to start the next phase of the installation." To install Windows, restart the installation. "If I restart, I can start the same process all over again and get the same result.

  The Question:

  How I get this error and get windows install?

  Extra pieces:

  • The first time it happened I assumed it was the new sip / thing "without roots" in El Capitan, causing problems, then I disabled, but I still get the same error.
  • After reviewing the diskutil list output after one of installs it without success, I found that a labeled EFI partition has been created after my storage partition (the original efi partition was still there in the upper part of the disc).
  • I have windows 8.1 installed now bootcamp on my internal ssd. It was planned to use it and winToUSB to put windows on my crush, but I found that it only works with usb2. I do not have installed could cause problems with the installation on another disk.
  • Before say you I can't run windows on an external, yes you can, and many people have. I read windows sees thunderbolt internal disks.
  • I read a few other posts on this and other sites on this problem, but could not find a pertitnant solution to my situation. I found one that suggested to remove the efi on my disk partition, but that seemed like a bad idea, so I didn't try.
  • I write this at 1 in the morning after a day spent in front of the computer trying to get this working, so please excuse typos typing or other. I am pleased to provide you with any pertinant information helping you will help me.
  • Thank you!

  The other thing I tried also almost succeeded:

  Although I prefer to get the method above works, because it seems the most promising, is something else, I've tried that I thought worth mentioning. If you offer advice pertaining to this method rather than the above, I would appreciate it if you could explicitly declare that at the top of your answer. Thank you.
  

  I tried to install windows on the physical disk using vmware and virtual box. The instrutctions I followed for this can be found here: http://www.andrewsavory.com/blog/2011/2156 (the only thing different, it's because it's on an external drive, I created the Fat 32 partition manually using disk utility). The first time (using vmware) installation seems to go off without a hitch, but I couldn't get my computer to see the windows partition as bootable with the boot efi menu hold-option regular refined or with system preferences-> startup disk. I think that I was using always inadvertently a hybrid-MBR at this stage. I tried to repeat this new beginning with the first two steps above to avoid the hybrid-MBR. But now when I try to create the virtual machine based on the gross vmdk, it starts to copy the files then says not sufficient permissions and fails. I don't know if it's a permission with the disk or the hard problem. I tried chmod 777 and chown $USER of the vmdk disk (/ dev/disk1s3) does not.

  Wow, that was a long post...

  1. when a second drive is detected by the Windows Setup program, he wants to create his own brand of EFI (104 MB) and not to mess with the Mac EFI (200 MB). You can force it to use the EFI to the Mac using Diskpart commands.

  2 instead of HFS/FAT32, create a piece of 750 GB free space and it should only get a new MSR/MSD, without the part of EFI.

  3. on your VM method, the link you have is quite old. You have a MP 2013, with references to the 2010 Mac alumni and is a bit too archaic to be useful. http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/install-a-Windows-7-partition-on-Mac-OSX-Wit hout-optical-car-or - usb.1836959 / #post... seems to work for many and can be useful for a test. It also uses Winclone.

• Need instructions/tips for no Win8.1 on mid 2012 MBP pro audio problem

  Thank you for taking your time looking in my question.

  My Machine: Macbook Pro retina no Mid 2012

  What I wanted: install win 8.1 pro 64 bit on a second SSD completely (without Partition) / replace the optical drive

  My problem: everything works fine, but no sound. Drivers seem to be the cause:

  
  How I installed windows:

  1. I put the own ssd in the main Bay + optical drive with disk 8.1 win

  2. Windows disk initialized and installed windows 8.1 64-bit without errors

  3 install the drivers for bootcamp support

  4 returned the Mac ssd go back to the main Bay and put the ssd of windows in the caddy and then in the optical Bay

  5. starting is by holding alt and choosing between mac os, recovery and boot efi (which contains windows)

  What I tried (all of the following are ineffective):

  1 reinstall/repair drivers bootcamp support from different sources (of the download on the website of apple and the bootcamp assistant application)

  2 reinstall the realtek drivers

  3. how to install intel drivers graphics hd 4000 (found a source who said it would do the trick, there is no)

  4 uninstallation of controller high definition Audio (it always seems to come back)

  5. manually download and install the drivers http://www.stuffedcow.net/files/CS4207_WinVista_Win7_32-64-bit_6-6001-1-30.zip cirrus

  I get the following error:

  

  6. place the ssd of windows in the main Bay

  7 troubleshooting sound (a 99% sure that this would not work)

  8 throw up my hands in despair and uncontrollable crying afterwards (was probably the most effective on 8)

  That I need clarification on:

  I found found some sources say that installing windows via EFI mode causes no sound, but I'm not sure if the way I installed it is considered to be the efi mode as I have never had an option for efi mode. However when I start upward and hold option the name of the windows disk named ' BOOT EFI. Efi mode is how I installed windows?

  What I need instructions on:

  Some sources claim that I need to install windows in hybrid MBR mode however I do not know how I would install windows any differently than the way I did above. How can I go about installing, not in start efi mode, if I want to spend the whole ssd for windows / that I would do anything differently than the steps I listed up there?

  Thanks a lot again for your time and help!

  Windows must be in the main Bay and must stay in the main Bay after installation. You can either use the wizard of BC and create a USB installer which will also create a legacy BIOS/MBR W8.1 (default value for your specific model) or if you choose to do it manually, make sure that the icon of Windows from the installation media, not EFI Boot.

  If you start from the DVD W8.1, the default value is Boot EFI. BC Assistant did a bit of work for you, in order to avoid the is not a good idea.

• Back to 'Vanilla' after messing around with Triple Boot

  First of all, you should know, I wonder a "software-handyman' - I LOVE messing around with my MacBook startup files, and sometimes I'll even an exaggeration with which. At the moment I'm running on a bootloader custom (refined) installed on am modified EFI, who manages my boot of trial between macOS 10,12 GM, 10 Windows and Linux of Kali. All in all my disk is divided into about 6 different Partitions (HFS + Journaled, NTFS, Linux Swap and a little more) which are listed on a hybrid MBR made by BootCamp and modified by me GUID Partition Table. (Phew)

  Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty good in this kind of things, everything is (still) works very well. My problem is, I kinda lost the overview of this 'universe', and - oddly enough - I'm also at the point where I lost the motivation to administer it. And that leads to my question:

  What is the best and cleanest way to get from one set to update EFI, a custom Table Partition, 6 different Partitions (and probably a few others) towards a functional, simple, system, like that of a Mac new, just bought.

  As said, I'm on a MacBook Pro mid-2014, GM Sierra (Build 16A313a)

  I appreciate all forms of assistance.

  Thank you

  How to reinstall OS X - Apple support

• can not start my Windows7 partition

  I had a Macbook Pro 15 "opportunity, end of 2011. It has the hard drive replaced by an extra hard drive.

  I have decided to install Windows 7 on the extra disc, which has two partitions: one for mac and one for windows.

  I used the method of the virtual machine to install windows on the macbook, the installation went well, until the reboot to real hardware. The windows partition is displayed in the mac operating system settings where I can choose to boot from it, but when I reboot I end up with a black screen with a cursor.

  the method I used:

  http://Apple.StackExchange.com/questions/179486/boot-camp-install-of-Windows-7-i pnnc-No. - bootable devices? RQ = 1

  If I boot the mac holding the key pressed alt, it shows that the OS X disk... But I can see the partition windows on the desktop, and browse the files of windows...

  The original drive (disk0) has a single partition and contains the OS X, disc 1 is the additional drive with two partitions: one for the mac files and one for windows.
