• Cannot start Windows, Windows Setup does not detect the hard disk, Bootmgr is misiing

  I have a few problems on my laptop [Acer 3810 t]

  -The first problem
  My mobile give me screen "cannot start windows' who have 2 choices: run the Startup Repair tool and boot normally. I chose to fix it, but nothing happens and stuck "starting windows" and gives unmountable boot volume 'blue screen '. the Dungeon of blues screen appear (for laptop is a not restart). So I turned off my phone and turn it back on it. the "could not start" screen again and I chose to start normally. but the result is negative. My portable Dungeon cannot start windows. Because of that I am using the advanced boot option and choose all the boot type such asit cannot load the safemode, last configuration etc, but the result is the same, you cannot start windows. in safe mode, its stuck in loading fileinfo.sys. I do not give up to try again with the advanced boot option. until I have a bad situation. My laptop can only 1 file in safe mode and blues screen do not appear again (my laptop only return at the beginning of start or restart)

  -The second problem
  because it cant solved, I want to reinstall my laptop. My OS is Vista 32 bit (pre-installed). I want to install the new operating system, windows 7. I use Dsik Flash bootable USB to install Windows 7. But in the BIOS, it is detected as a USB HDD. So I set my BIOS to load USB HDD to the first order. the installation can be done, but only until the "start Setup" screen and its deadlock. I have it wait up to an hour, but nothing happens. So I'm going to BIOS, change SATA mode to IDE mode AHCI. Then load the USB and go "installation program start screen. but the new problem is the installation of window does not detect my hard drive. So I can not choose the place to install the operating system. I have to load the driver, but I did not. Again to load the configuration to AHCI and IDE, until I get my HDD can detected in IDE mode. So I think I can move easily, I choose custom installation and choose the hard drive to install the operating system. But unfortunately, at the beginning of the process, after choosing the OS, the Installer gives error if installation location the installation failed. (I forgot the error message)

  -The third problem
  So far, I can't spend 'startup begins' as well in mode IDE and AHCI. Also bootmgr in my hard disk is missing, so I can't go to move the startup repair or the startup option in my HDD as before

  What is the error code that you got with blue screen?

  I think that there is a problem with your drive HARD check that by contacting acer...

• New update of hard disk for Satellite L670D-102

  Hello

  I need to get windows 7 on my old hard drive and on my new hard drive update. I can't find "media copy" file/folder. I did a windows disc when I arrived as he forced me to do but only loads a 'safe' version of windows on the new hd and wonder for other discs.

  Local dealer believes there are 3 back up discs to load up. I tried to save, but it takes more than 7 DVDs and still unfinished when I run out of time. Takes all day to do it. I tried an 'image system' through the windows and that works, but said that the new disk is the same size that the old image of disk system has been removed. Old drive 250 GB I think, new drive is 1 TB. Local dealer said try to reset the computer to the factory and see if "copy media" thread/folder reappears.

  Someone at - it ideas please!

  Message has been modified: the model name added to title

  At first, I must say that you must tell us which model of laptop you have exactly.

  In general the whole situation is pretty simple. Your laptop came with the version of the OS pre-installed (recovery image). Using preinstalled Toshiba media creator you recovery tool can create bootable recovery (DVD or USB) media that you can use for the installation of recovery.

  After HDD just change boot image recovery this recovery media created facility.

  To be honest I do not understand your ad and you wrote all this has created media.

• reinstalled Windows XP Pro on the new HARD disk, not invited to key code

  My Dimension 9200 needed a new HARD drive. Ordered from Dell, installed HD then re-installed Windows XP Pro sp2. I forgot to unplug the media reader, so I had to reinstall it again to get HARD drive letter assignment as C. Added drivers in good condition and just download and install sp3 and all the necessary updates. Now, all that remains is to transfer all the files from the old HD.

  Never, I was invited to the WinXP key code. I DO have the Dell OEM disc as well as the installation key code in the original Dell factory. I was wondering if anyone else had the same "problem". I checked under administrative tools and don't see anything that ask you "activation". The only thing that I went off and was invited to provide was the key code when I installed MS Office 2003. When I check in system properties, General, it shows that it is registered to me and some numbers with Dell OEM then more numbers, not the OS key code well.

  Anyone can shed some light on this? Thank you

  When you use a Dell OEM media on a Dell computer, it checks the BIOS to make sure that it is install on a Dell computer, then it will be activated automatically, using a generic OEM key.  As long as you have the sticker COST/License/Product Key, you have the right to run Windows on this computer.  That's pretty standard for OEM systems.

  System properties still shows a 'code', not the actual key.  You can use Magic Jelly Bean to retrieve the key used to activate Windows, but the key, that he will return does not match your COA and cannot be used for manual activation.

• Windows loads and have a RAW hard disk

  Recently, I have this problem, my laptop started, he began to check for errors on the disk (D :). after reaching 100% for more than an hour, I thought it got stuck and stop my laptop with the power button.) Now when I run windows even loads disk control D: starts but its stuck at 0%

  I tried the automatic recovery, but I failed. I opened the advanced recovery, troubleshooting, and the command prompt.

  Since the command that I could access C, E, F (my 1 TB HD is divded into C, D, E, F) discs but the opening of d: it shows redudancy cyclical error. Running Chkdsk it gives an error
  Cannot run Chkdsk for RAW readers...

  I tried to ignore the disk check, but windows won't load. the loading screen just guard spinning.

  Thanks for help.

  Hello

  You might try to wipe the disk, but it may not make a difference...

  You have nothing to lose but some time...

  You probably found the RAW because the drive was damaged when the chkdsk command was arrested... She basically lost his file from formatting\partitioning...

  The reader can already failed and the reason for the chkdsk to begin with...

  Another thing, you could try that would be faster and CAN recover the drive is to reinstall windows and install a CUSTOM...  You'll get a screen to remove all the partitions and/or reformat the drive...

  Just delete them all and see if windows install and create what he needs...

  Otherwise, try again and this time format the drive in NTFS... Windows will probably be repartitioning again...

  If your installation media does not restore to factory settings, it might be a good time to spend to Win 8.1 or 10 and start again...

  You can also be in need of a new HARD drive...

• Windows XP Setup cannot find a HARD disk

• HP ENVY 15t Quad Win 7 - update of hard disk of 1 TB HARD 1 TB drive HARD + 250 GB SSD drive

  Hello world

  I recently bought a HP ENVY 15 laptop Quad t on the online store of HP with the following specifications (list only pertinent information):

  • Windows 7 Professional 64

  It's exactly what I'm saying. The WSSD is not directly bootable. You must put a configuration of bootloader on the 1 TB drive main then it starts booting it resets and then the initialization of the WSSD. The slot of the WSSD in this series laptop is designed to hold a much smaller WSSD "acceleration" that works with the main hard drive.

• Activate Windows 8.1 clear partitions of hard disk other than Windows?

  Hi all

  I just had my motherboard replaced because the earlier failed. Now I need to activate Windows 8.1 with a different product key (the one given to me by the Dell technician).

  My concern is that I double Windows and Ubuntu 8.1 boot, so I have a Ubuntu partition and a Windows partition. If I activate Windows, will be that rag on my Ubuntu partition? Really want to be wiped out because of all the customizations of the research that I do...

  Thank you

  Hello

  Thanks for writing on the Dell Community Forum.

  The answer to that would be 'no '. Windows 8.1 activation would not effect the Ubuntu partition. The partitions will be done if you are doing a new installation of Windows.

  However, it is always recommended to have a return to the top of your data before you try anything related to partitions.

• Windows 7 - How to remove a hard disk of the winsxs directory space.

  I have a Windows 7-64 bit (Service pack 1 installed) system with a 2 TB HDD + 150 GB HDD. The 2 TB disk has a 20 GB partition (C :) for Windows & a few other programs such as Live essentials, AVG & Adobe. Most of the other software has been installed on a second drive 150 GB (old) (f).

  20 GB partition is down to the last 300 MB of space & can no longer update windows or AVG. I also receive a "Low disk space" message

  Currently: -.

  C:\windows\ => 16.4 GB

  C:\windows\winsxs\ => 7,51 GB

  I tried the following.

  -"Diskcleanup" for standard files & cleaning of the system.

  -Deletion of all programs that are not needed on the partition & either left or installed on the 150 GB drive.

  -Removed the 'Originals' directory that Essentials uses to store the versions of the files of edited images. Now, it is automatically deleted after 24 hours.

  I have not been able to reallocate memory because the drive is less than the minimum 512 MB recommended.

  It seems to me that all the programs that have been installed at one time, but have been removed are still in C:\windows\winsxs\

  How I shot this size without re - install Windows 7 and others?

  I ended up going about it a different way to the 3rd party software, like those that make me always nervous.

  Yes, I needed to extend the c: in this case, I'm out to 150 GB.

  I ended up copying all files D: on various devices and then deleted the D:. The only snag I hit was not be able to delete the D: partition. It turns out that I had to disable the file 'Page' for D:. After that, I was able to delete D:, expand c 150 GB and then re - allocate D:.

  To disable the Page file, you must go to 'advanced system settings '.

  The next thread can be useful as well.
