• Sony Vaio in operating system not found?

  I have a laptop Sony Vaio, model SVE14AJ16L number and I got a new drive hard since the hold had ceased to function. I didn't need all the files on the old drive, so I just jumped out. I installed the new drive, but then did not work the Assist button. I googled this and I couldn't find a solution. I need to install Vaio care, but cannot find the Vaio care for my model number. I needed to install Windows 8, but for some reason it wouldn't detect the DVD or USB. I made the USB drive bootable using rufus and I downloaded an ISO and intended to put the serial number on the bottom of my laptop. It looks like all that operating system not found. I can't go into the BIOS, because that's what the assist button, and it does not detect. The towers of DVD and USB activity led blinked his eyes, but nothing. I don't know what is happening. Even when I took out the hard drive and put in the DVD/USB, it seems still operating system not found. I can't find the model number on this site.

  TL; DR
  Installed a new drive, HELP does not, does not detect a bootable USB/DVD, appears only as an operating system not found. I made bootable USB/DVD and tested on other computers.

  Please help, thanks.

  Basically, I don't have your system to test, so I'm just guiding you the general procedures.

  First of all, FORGET the ASSIST button. To explain the question "why?" would take a lot of time and goals here is to install new windows in your new drive.

  Secondly, I highly recommend you have all the necessary drivers for your equipment before your proceed with the windows installation 8 or 8.1. I own VPCSB28GG and Windows 8.1, several functions DO not work properly as it does in Windows 7. So, unless you have a deep knowledge on the computer, do not go for windows 8.1 yet or at least try to install windows 8.1 on a different drive for a test run.

  Thirdly, I strongly recommend allows you to install Windows 7 USB stick / 8 / 8.1 since the DVD player is not a reliable source from USB. Microsoft also provides tools to help people installing Windows 7 / USB 8.x. Please google it.

  As the symptoms that you have described, I recommend the steps as follows:

  1. go in the BIOS / settings (by pressing F2 during POST) UEFI. Under start options, your system may use a different name, but in principle it is similar to this: '1 ST Boot Device' "2nd Boot Device" "3rd Boot Device"... and so on. The value '1 ST Boot Device' your desire, such as CD-ROM bootable media, DVD-ROM, external USB/HDD. In my case, it is an external device because I use USB boot Windows 7 / 8.x installation. The "2nd Boot Device" in the HARD drive internal value. Drive HARD internal is your disk newly installed (or current).

  2. run the windows installation wizard. During the installation of Windows, your computer may restart several times. However, AFTER THE FIRST USE, you must go to the BIOS / UEFI with once again. The value '1 ST Boot Device' internal HARD drive. If you forget this step, you will encounter a loop of Windows installation. So, I suggest to pay attention pls. After that Windows Setup is complete, you can install drivers for your system. Find it in Support to the Sony Web site. You will need to download the Windows 7 drivers for Windows 8 as Intel Management Engine, components Sony blah blah blah. Please keep in mind, Vaio Care cannot make you suggest.

  3. in the installation of Windows, you won't find your HARD drive to destination of installation. In this case, go to the BIOS / UEFI setting, replace your SATA AHCI by compatible IDE or SATA port configuration. You can later change back to AHCI AFTER installing your SATA driver.

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  According to the page of the product HP for your PC, it came not with preinstalled Win10.  THIS means that you have done the upgrade to Win10.

  While Microsoft says there is no risk in the upgrade of Win10, because they allow you to believe that you can always return to your BONES and the original installation program within 30 days, the ugly fact of the matter is that the Win10 GoBack feature turned out to be unreliable - and when she fails, she can let machines in a State corrupted - that does not always happen , but it happens often enough to be a problem and you will get no warning beforehand that he goes to the trash your PC!
  
  If this is not enough, the Win10 upgrade is known, in some cases, corrupt partition recovery stored by the OEM that built the original machine. It's pretty much guarantee that no HP recovery will work.

  The problem you mentioned is usually due to one of two basic problems:
  (1) defective hard drive
  (2) damaged/missing bootloader files
  
  As to the first, please follow the instructions in this link to test your hard drive: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00439024
  
  If that confirms that your drive has failed, then you will need to replace it.  Please report back if this is the case.
  
  As for the second, you need access to a PC for this phase of work in order to create the necessary support to fix your PC boot loader.
  
  Once you have that, please download and create the Win10 installation media from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10
  
  Note that when you download and build install media, the default tool corresponding to what is already installed on your PC (as in home for the House, and 64-bit to 64 - bit).  While you CAN change these settings, are NOT. If you do, the media that results will be different and will force you to enter a NEW product code.
  
  Boot from the media that you have created and follow the instructions in this link: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2294-advanced-startup-options-boot-windows-10-a.html
  
  You will need to go to the Advanced Options screen and click on startup repair.  You will probably need to run Startup Repair three times for him to fix all the boot loader.
  
  Once completed, your PC should start OK.

  Good luck

• VAIO S13A36PG: Operating System Not found

  Need help please, my situation is as below:

  I decided to give a try to dual boot windows 8.1 (preinstalled with VAIO S on RAID0 (Intel RST)) and Ubuntu 14. However, all my boot entry on efi (left usb) to start. Even if the EFI partition. No matter how I add using efibootmgr, reboot, it shows the operating system not found. I also tried to find (the two BONES not shown here), I guess is must be something to do with driver rEFInd (no RAID support)

  NOTE: I tried startup repair, after repair, it showed Ubuntu, that promising fact for me, but when I reboot, it seems not delete the entry again.

  My BIOS Setup: 1) Secure Boot: disabled 2) Boot Mode: UEFI 3) allow for starting the external device: Yes

  Well, its seems somehow the Windows Boot Manager cannot start the RAID0.

  I solve it by:

  (1) fast driver Intel Storage Tech (download from the Intel website) - put inside an another USB, you will need to load it as Windows does not support RAID on the fly

  (2) ISO Windows 8.

  Step:

  Demarrer start in Windows 8 ISO, select Repair, image select System (load a driver RST from there).

  Return to troubleshooting option, select Sovle common problem. Then VAIO is done some repairs, and Yes, I retrieve my windows

• Operating system not found, no boot device has been detected but can run XP in Bootcamp without problem?

  The title says it all. I searched and tried the partial fixes to some of the questions.

  I have installed Bootcamp and a working copy of XP Pro works no problem at all.

  I installed VMFusion and merger goes to the partition, and I get the error no bootable devices and not found any BONES. It seems trying to boot from a network, it works to resolve a MAC address. Then he hangs on. Then don't say: "no found bone." I put the disc XP Prop and try reinstalling and it said: none found disk... I have attached a few photos.

  Thank you

  Note: These senses are different which have already been posted so read and follow through... Note: These steps assume that you have a single Apple to default installation of Windows on a single Boot Camp partition and Boot Camp of VMware Fusion single default partition Machine virtual (without a snapshot *) and if you have changed the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine to add additional hard disks to be virtual or RAW disk then do not use these instructions unless you backup the Boot Camp partition the Machine package virtual first. * Also note that Fusion 2.0.0 may accidentally have a snapshot with the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine and it should not have, then you should check to ensure that the condition does not exist as well. (With merger closed if the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine package is over 1 MB in size, then you might have a snapshot in place and do not continue with these instructions.)

  1. If the merger is open, close it.

  2. in a Terminal (/ Applications/Utilities/Terminal) copy and paste command, as the following and then press Enter and it will delete the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine of the metadata and the Virtual Machine to help.

  I shut down my computer before going to bed and now when I turn on the Sony Vaio Windows 7 it says Vaio then says operating system not found. I tried to use the Windows restore USB, nothing, so I tried to repair CD, he worked went to PC repair but said my score is not correct or my HARD drive is locked. Someone at - it something that can help?

  Start you the installation media or retrieve the stick and then follow to access Advanced Startup Options in Windows 8 or 10 to run the Startup Repair tool?  This error message do you have?  Please take a photo to fix reply or write verbatim.

  When you start the BIOS configuration via the "F2" Sony, the hard drive is detected under devices in the boot order or storage?  Place first in the boot order, trigger repair/installation media using the F12 key only.

  If the hard drive is not detected, see if you can reinstall it until it comes.  If she will not appear so you can try to connect to another PC to see if we can read enough to save files, or his test condition.  Then replace it with a SSD which is the best upgrade, we can give a PC - quick as lightning.

  If she appears to run the amount shown on the HD diagnosis extended CD scan to ascertain the condition of the hard drive.  Confirm with a full disk check run from the Startup Options kick command prompt.

  You are able to execute all other advanced boot Options: restoration of the system, or Reset after saving all files that are not backed up following rescue files when Windows does not start.

  If all else fails, see if you can run the recovery Vaio, or make a clean reinstall Windows 7

  Although there are major obstacles now to get the updates of Windows running after a reinstall.  You would be better if the PC meets the Spécifications 10 Windows to do a Clean install Windows 10 improvement before the expiration of the offer, using the Windows 7 product key after installation to activate.  These steps have been used by tens of thousands of consumers without a single complaint - it's the best possible installation of Windows, you can get.

  Hi Gary,.

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question.

  According to the description, you have problems with the computer not start.

  This problem can occur because of a hardware problem.

  Proceed as from the link below and check if that helps.

  "Operating system not found" or the "Missing operating system" error message when you start your Windows XP-based computer

  Warning: Be careful when you change the settings of the BIOS (Basic Input Output System). The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly. BIOS update should be made only if necessary (to solve a compatibility problem, for example). It can be a complicated process, and if an error occurs, your computer could be rendered inoperative. Be sure to observe the instructions of the manufacturer.

  Meet us if you face problems with computer not start or any other issue of Windows, and we would be happy to help you.

  Good day!

  "OS not found"

  Hello... My laptop out there today and I'm trying to start it, it says "operating system not found '... I guess I reinstall windows Vista but I can't find any cd/dvd... I dontt think that I was given when I bought my laptop a few years ago... Do you think I can get another copy (free of charge)) L

  Hello

  If you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your laptop there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  Also some manufacturers have more available recovery Vista disc.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  Hi Johanna,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I understand that you can not use the USB in Windows 7.

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will definitely help you with this

  1. you get any error message?

  2 have you tried using different USB ports?

  3. any other USB key works on the computer in question?

  4. do the USB works on any other computer?

  5 have had any changes made to the computer before the show?

  Please follow the methods.

  Method 1:

  Run the Microsoft fixit for the link.

  Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows

  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us

  Method 2:

  As all devices have same also have USB device associated drivers. Appropriate sometimes drivers not detected after initial installation so reinstalling the drivers can fix the problems.

  You can check after uninstalling and reinstalling USB drivers if you are able to connect. You can disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:

  (a) click Startand then click Control Panel.

  (b) click system and Maintenance, click System, and then click Device Manager.

  (c) Note if the control panel is in Classic view, double-click Systemand then click on Device Manager.

  (d) If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

  (e) in Device Manager, double-click to expand the "USB Bus controllers", right click on the controller host, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
  Check that if at all, there is an exclamation point on the pilot, it suggests problems with the installed driver.

  (f) repeat step 2 to uninstall all items under 'USB Bus controllers'.

  Then, restart your computer and Windows 7 will automatically reinstall all USB controllers.

  We would be more than happy to help you if the steps above did not solve the problem.
