• Qosmio X 505-Q896 damaged mbr (master boot record) PQX33U-052025

  I've damaged by the master boot record.

  If anyone can send me a copy of them, provided that the partitions are unchanged as provided by toshiba I'll be eternally grateful, because it will save me from formatting the hard drive.

  All other attempts have failed
  It of a small file and can be copied using http://www.misec.net/products/mbr-backup/
  I only need one c drive,

  Thank you very much

  I m not the Qosmio X 505 owner so I can not provide you with all the files, but usually, you should be able to repair the MBR using the repair console.

  You need a Windows 7 disc (not the Toshiba recovery disc).
  Insert Win 7 installation DVD and boot from the DVD.

  Click 'Repair your computer' to access the system recovery window
  Choose "Command Prompt" in order to run the desired utility called "bootsect.exe".
  Now run * "bootsect/nt60 C:\"* If you had win 7 initially installed in the C partition.
  You can also run * "bootsect/nt60 SYS" * or * "bootsect/nt60 ALL" * to repair the system partition or all partitions

  Good luck and welcome

• Windows 7 boot CD system recovery cannot fix the Master Boot Record is damaged or missing?

  This question is on the drive that Windows 7 users can make by going to the backup and restore > create a system repair disc, and then burn the disc.

  Windows says that this disk can be used to start the computer. However, you will not necessarily be able to boot your Windows 7 operating system from the hard drive. When I had a problem recently (shut down system and on reboot I got a message BACK that says "Boot MGR missing") this disc is not to try to do a repair. In the system recovery Menu, you see here when you start the CD:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/what-are-system-recovery-options#what-are-system-recovery...

  I chose "Startup Repair" and he couldn't fix anything. I ended up cloning of my hard disk from a backup.

  Of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/startup-repair-faq#1TC=windows-7

  "Are there problems that Startup Repair cannot fix?

  Startup Repair can only fix certain problems, such as missing or damaged system files. He can't fix the failures of hardware, such as a failing hard disk or incompatible memory, nor it protects against virus attacks.

  Startup Repair is not designed to fix Windows installation problems, is not a backup tool, so it cannot help you recover personal files, such as photos or documents. To help protect your computer, back up your system and your files regularly. For more information, search for "backup" in Windows Help and Support. »

  So here's my question: how to create a bootable CD that has everything you need to fix the Master Boot Record, whereas in case your startup files are damaged, altered, or deleted (and of course, you can not start your system from the hard drive) it will be either fix the files on the hard disk or at least still start your operating system on your hard drive?

  To answer my own question (which becomes a habit on this forum): http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/20864-mbr-restore-windows-7-master-boot-record.html

  It turns out that the repair CD Windows 7 Sytem that I had done was the right tool for the job but I didn't know how to use it. The above link explains how to use the command prompt window to repair the boot record.

  Other advice, I had was to have used the "Startup Repair" option in the Tools menu of recovery after launching the repair CD, but then he runs three times. For some reason, it takes three times to run before it can solve the problem. I think that the command prompt window method is probably more reliable.

• A low impact, Trojan's catchy .dll errors to appear on startup - how do I restore my Master Boot Record when I don't have a boot cd?

  Most of what I read on that forces me to restart with a book drive.  Windows 7 was installed on my pc when I bought it and it did not come with any additional Windows software.  They suggested to disable the system restore, rebooting with disc and in the command prompt, typing bootrec/fix mbr.  Can I do this without going through the disc to reboot?

  Run all these utilities free, if necessary in safe mode

• Hard drive boot record is missing

  I recently had a virus and my antivirus told me to start in SafeMode to complete uninstallation.  It took several reboots and I've made a few changes in administrative tools to have Windows restart every time in safe mode by pressing F10 succeeded perhaps 1 out of 3 attempts.  I also checked for each startup 'connect' and changed 'small dump' to 'image of the nucleus' without realizing that it was not supported.  I don't know if this or the virus caused the result but on the next boot hung my computer and I got the error "Bank interleave requested but disabled: press F2 to continue. In the bios, I could find nothing bank interleave. After evolving around a while 'disk i/o error primary drive 4' was added to the Bank a stripe error.  A couple of people in a forum told me that my hard drive died, so I purchased a new one and it installed without any problems.

  I have been researching if indeed the other drive died. It runs without noise or hesitation, but when it is installed in a SATA port inside the computer. Windows does not recognize it. I bought an external enclosure usb and windows will recognize it again but disk management says that it is not initialized and that it cannot mount the drive.  Its a WD5000aaks Digital Western and I am running Vista x 64. Device Manager acknowledges, but he says it is a DVD/CD.  When you try to scan the disc with recovery software more fail however today I used PC Inspector File Recovery and he was able to scan the drive and the number of folders/files. I'm afraid to try to recover with this program because it warns if the volume on the disk is miscalculated that the data may be severely damaged.  It's just a 500 GB drive, but the program says it's a 2 TB drive!

  The Windows disc that came with my computer is a single installation without service unfortunately options disc.  Does anyone know how I can restore the boot record of the disk.  I don't know, but I may have to restore the partitions as well.  The local data recovery seller wants more than $1,000 to recover the data and I'm not spending a lot of money. It seems that the data is intact, but windows can not access.

  Hi useless,

  You can try to rebuild the master boot record and check if it helps. But we cannot guarantee the data on the disk.

• Restore the master book record

  Hello

  I have a MacBook Pro and installed windows via bootcamp 10. Now, I wanted to created a partition which can be read/written by windows and mac software. I created a partition in the format exfat under OS X. I couldn't write on this partition under windows, so I wanted to delete the partition exfat and create a new Windows.

  It seems that I deleted the wrong partition, because only 10 windows then begins. If I press the CMD key during startup, only 10 of Windows appears. I suppose that the Master Boot Record does not work. Is it possible to repair the master boot record?

  My time Machine backup seems to be corrupted too and does not work.

  Thanks for the help!

  Note that if you use Boot Camp Assistant to create your Windows partition, you cannot create additional partitions. You can have the OS X and Windows partition. Create a third partition causes the transition from Windows to be of any use.

  According to the current state, you must start the computer in the HD Recovery, disk utility open partition all the drive back to a single partition, then reinstall a new copy of Mac OS X.

  Install or reinstall OS X from scratch

  Make sure that you have backed up your files because the following procedure will remove all of the hard drive.

  HD recovery start:

  Restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and hold down the COMMAND and R until the menu screen appears.

  Erase the drive:

  1. select in the main menu disk utility and click on the continue button.

  2. once the charges of THE select your boot volume (usually Macintosh HD) in the

  list on the left. Click on the Erase tab in the main window of THE.

  3. set the type of format Mac OS extended (journaled). If necessary, click

  Security and button all the option data from scratch in a single pass. Click

  the clear button and wait until the process is complete.

  4 leave FROM and return to the main menu.

  Reinstall OS X: Select reinstall OS X and click on the install button.

  Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible

  because it is three times faster than wireless.

  This should install the version of Mac OS X that you had installed it.

• During the Windows installation, I received the following message: Boot Record from CDROM tree research... OK press a key to boot from CD... Error loading operating system

  What is the cause of this error message

  during the installation of the operating system on a single computer, I met the following error message
  "The research tree Boot Record from CDROM... Ok

  What are the causes of this error?

  Hi DavidMuya,

  To stop this message from appearing, follow these steps:

  (a) remove any CD from the drive before you turn on or restart the computer.

  (b) enter the BIOS and change the boot hard drive sequence instead. You will need to change if you plan to boot from a CD in the future.

• Unmountable Boot Volume error message

  Hello.

  Monday, I bought Norton Internet Security 2007 and tried to install it. I was reading a word document while I was installing it. I received an error message and was prompted to restart Windows XP.

  When I tried to reboot Windows XP. I received a message telling me an error that caused Windows stop. The message asked me to choose between:

  1. safe mode

  2 safe mode with command prompt

  3. last know good configuration

  4. start windows normally.

  I chose "start windows normally".

  MS Windows XP started normally for a few seconds then instead of my normally log on page, I got a blue screen with this message:

  "A problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

  UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME

  If this is the first time you've seen this error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again the following steps.

  If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Clear options memory BIOS such as caching and shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press f8 to select the startup options, and then select Safe mode.

  Technical information:

  STOP: 0X00000ED (0X80E (1E30, 0XC000031, 0 X 000000000) "")

  And then my computer stop, then restart in the same order.

  IT keep repeating the sequence: ect ect error message security mode and then blue screen, shut down and restart. Again and mo matter which mode to choose. I went online looking for what is happening with my laptop (from a ready computer) and I still have the problem. I was told that I need to uninstall the software that caused the problem. My question is have I can uninstall the software when I can't reach journal window now and so the control panel?

  I'm at my wits end. Help, please.

  Hello

  I don t know why but it seems that your master boot sector damage
  You can try to access the repair console (boot from the original CD of windows, and then press R)
  Then try using this command: chkdsk/p
  This command should fix some sectors on the HARD disk. Maybe it helps.

  If not then you have to format the whole HARD drive and reinstall the new OS!

• A technology expert please Windows 7 Boot Records

  I have a PC HP Desktop running Windows 7 - C: D: Operating System Recovery petition without changes or added extras.  Recently, I had to use HP System Recovery to reload Windows to factory due to a serious error.  Everything went well and the system is free from error, starts without problems.  However when I run McAfee I noticed it now scans of the 3 Boot Records whereas before he analyzed only 2.  I'm not technological Queen and this worries me a bit, should I worry when the system works perfectly.  McAfee IS reading all the old data on my desktop?  Can someone explain why I have 3 Boot Records in plain easy to follow English and if this is acceptable.  All responses appreciated and thank you for reading.  PS in Msconfig I only a C: operating system appear at startup.

• BSoD Unmountable Boot Volume error message

  This morning my laptop was running slowly and I executed a forced shutdown. When you turn on the computer, I kept getting a blue screen with the error message "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME". All the options I tried met the same fate. I have the recovery disk and tried to use it to fix the system. However, after stopping race/spinning drive, only a black screen remained and remained it up to with no progress for more than 3 minutes more. I don't remember what is the code, but I'll take a look later, when I try again with the recovery disc to attempt to repair the system. I have looked through all the answers to previous questions to the BSoD Unmountable Boot Volume error and see if it is of help.

• Inaccessible boot device error. New motherboard.

  De : Meigs

  I'm changing my motherboard that supports the quad core processor. However, I get an inaccessible boot device error when I try to boot with the new motherboard. I tried to boot from the installation dvd and repair, but it cannot solve the problem.

  I don't want to perform a new installation. It was easy with WinXP pro. The cd should solve the problem. But, I can just know how to do this with Windows Vista.

  Is there a way to get the registry to look for new drivers? It may not be a big problem since the installation DVD to see the drive with any action on my part.

  From: Rick Rogers

  Hi Meigs,

  Sorry, but change the motherboard in most cases it will take a reinstall. The exception would be a card replacement or one that is very closely related. XP could affect a repair installation, it is not possible in Windows Vista due to changes in the way the operating system is built on the hard drive.

  Moreover, the error message at startup is likely, given that the new motherboard uses a driver different thant previous to load the hard disk.

  Good luck
