I screwed up trying to install windows on my computer 10 and I XE off installer and now its says "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key".
I was just trying to download 10 on my computer windows using boot camp assistant. I answered the questions for windows when you need to respond as what kind of language you use and then I messed up on one of the questions. I didn't know how to go back so I just pressed the red x. When I did that he must get off my computer and when it's done I got a black screen and then it says "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key" I don't know what he meant by no bootable disk and I was hoping that you guys can help me fix.
If stop you your Mac and your power it back up and hold down the Alt/Option key, you see a Windows selection? If so try to select and see if the installation will continue.

I have a PC with Vista, I tried to install Windows XP, it was rejected, and now I don't have an operating system
Bruce,
Do you remember if you wanted to do a new installation or had you partitioned your hard drive to install it in a dual boot with Vista?
If you do not have a BONE now it sounds lik evous was the first choice that clears your current installation.
You need to reinstall Vista from your original media to recover your system if this is the case.
Unfortunately, if this is what you choose, you have lost all the data that was on your hard drive as well.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad new possible.

I am trying to install Windows 7 via USB, (El Capitan, Macbook Pro - early 2011), but this mistake "No. BOOTABLE DEVICE - INSERT BOOT DISK AND press ANY KEY ' when bootcamp restart my macbook to begin the installation. Any ideas?
You cannot use a USB on Mac 2011 Installer. Please burn the ISO on a physical DVD Windows (a DVD - R Carbon SL on the rate of burning slower is better) and use it to install Windows. The file Info.plist changes only allowing the creation of USB, but does not fully support a USB Installation.

After trying to install Windows updates, my computer turns off.
I tried to load 2012 ARO. In the end there was a request to restart my computer, so I left closed... it has been slain on the third phase of the judgment since then. Support ARO said that it's a microsoft issue, not a question ARO. I tried to restart in SafeMode known last... but who doesn't have a wok. At out the battery, disconnected it, everything that I could think of and nothing works. Help, please.
original title: don't stop after update(1) never install two security systems on the same computer because of the possibility of conflicts like this. Norton may have similar tools to what you were trying to install.
During the validation of the subjects as that one, don't forget to post your operating system of Windows and the computer make and model.
Recovery discs are here with your system? Alternatively, did you create recovery discs? Have you created a boot disk?
(2) by changing the boot order, you can force your computer to boot from a CD/DVD drive, a floppy, or even out of the network drive. Use the startup disk or recovery disk if you have one.

If the answer is still no, you need to get the site of the manufacturer of the computer recovery discs. I think that you will be able to order Windows Vista or Windows 7 but Windows XP is rained on many sites and an internet search may be more useful in this case.

I have the disc for xp that I bought. It has been installed on this computer before. I had to restore the computer and now I can't reinstall xp from the disk.
Hello
· What is the exact error that you are experiencing when you try to install Windows XP on the system?
· You have the full version of the Windows XP operating system or upgrade disk?
· Are doing a clean installation of Windows XP or install an upgrade?
Make sure that the XP CD is not damaged. If you have the upgrade disc you can not make a format installation. You can only switch to the older operating system to windows XP. I suggest you follow the steps mentioned in the article given below to install Windows XP on the system.

Or they are corrupt, try to get a new copy and try again.
For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.
It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.
Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:
How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?
Make sure you scroll down and read the section:
What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

I am trying to install Windows Server 2008. When I get to the part where I should choose where the operating system is to be installed, it is blank. He told me 'No device found drivers. We see the SATA HDD in BIOS, and if I browse for the drivers, the driver is displayed. I used the command line packaged with the installer to format the drive, just to be sure. It is formatted in NTFS.
