• Failed installation of VMware Workstation 9 on new install of win 7

  I looked at the discussion of installation has failed VMware Workstation 9, verified that I am administrator, cleaned folder and looked at the registry and I'm still having problems.  The name of the account used is not Admin/Admin or anything close.

  This is a new installation today of windows 7 with all updates applied.  Avast is my anti-virus software.  The behavior does not change with it running or disabled.

  I think that the problem to be that KLM/Sofware/VMware Inc. does not appear.  I checked that I can create keys.

  "In my installs I've seen: message" failure of the MSI MSI "and once"the MSI MSI failed. "  Authorization of VMware (VMAuthService) failed to start service.

  Here are the logs from my last install.

  Can someone provide me with more information about the problem and how to get this installed?

  Thank you

  Finally got this resolved after many setup logs sent to VMware.  I came across the registry problems and VMAuthdServices fail to start due to software AV.

  In short, following http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1031302 (KB1031302) is important as well as some comments from howellrj.  Here's what I did in detail and why during my various tests of installation:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1031302

  1 I used the only account on the system, which did not have a name as owner, admin, administrator, which has administrator privileges

  2 wiped % TEMP % whenever I made an attempt to install

  3 MS KB 942288 not recommended for Win7 so I jumped

  4 no earlier version of VMware Workstation has been installed on the system, so I jumped

  5 ran http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651/en-us (MS KB2438651) whenever I made an attempt to install.  He has never found anything wrong

  6 was not running WinXP so I jumped

  7 has made run msconfig to disable all services and should follow https://support3.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=1334 (Avast KB1334) to disable Avast self protection mode.  Even with Avast protection auto mode disabled and all the disabled Avast shields were always running and prevent.  The only way to clear the checkpoint was to remove Avast completely.

  8 I ran sfc/scannow before each installation to be sure.  No problems have ever been found.

  So, here is what I did to get the software installed successfully:

  An item copied to my system

  1 AV Installer on my system

  2 use FixIt of MS KB 2438651

  Disconnected the network B

  C restart the system with network not connected

  D removed Avast

  E to restart the system with network not connected

  1 erase TEMP

  2 Ran FixIt utility of MS KB 2438651

  3 ran sfc/scannow

  F install VMware Workstation

  G restart the system

  H check VMware Workstation starts

  I install Avast

  J stop the system

  K connecting to the network

  L reboot the system with connected network

  M update Avast

  N reconfigure Avast

• New install of Win 7 x 64 by using the upgrade CD

  History:

  The machine running Win 7 x 64 was initially under Vista. A long while back, I bought a disc of Windows 7 and installed upgrading Windows 7 x 64. Fast forward to a few months ago when I installed Win 10. After a few weeks, I realized that 10 win wasn't for me. My attempts to return to Win 7 failed. Forget that my Win 7 disc was a upgrade disc, I wiped the HD (and after another series of headaches) and installed Win 7.

  It's been almost 3 weeks and today I entered the product key, only to receive the error CO4f061 "the Service of software license determined that this specified product usable only key for the upgrade, not for new installations."

  Question:

  How can I keep the such OS, without having to wipe the HD, install Vista, and then upgrade to Windows 7? The last episode of installation/update of Win 7 resulted in hours of reset, updated day and then restarting over and over again. There must be a work around that... The pc was bought with Vista installed and came with an OS Vista Home Premium disc. I also paid for and legally own Windows 7 upgrade disk.

  TIA,

  UMRK

  Personal opinion:

  Of course, Windows 10 is free, but I will switch to Linux or perhaps reluctantly migrate to Apple OS before installing Windows 10 on any of my machines. I know that Win 7 Life Cycle coming to an end... so what. I know people still under XP. So, please do not answer with good reasons to move to Win 10, of his virtues. I'm set on Win 7 as my OS of choice and will appreciate your help to overcome this problem.

  1 make sure you can read the Windows Vista certificate of product key of authenticity that you might be invited to read

• Satellite C660-1NX freezes while stop after a new install of Win 7

  Hello!

  The first sorry for my English, I'm Spanish and use a translator.

  I have a Satellite C660-1NX (PSC1LE-00F00NCE), I had to reformat the computer, put on a clean Windows 7 64 x (no recovery) with all the original drivers giving the official page of Toshiba.

  Everything seems perfect, but when turn off the computer is frozen, I thought it was x 64 and x 86 and install the same, straight day, then started the same problem, eh update of the BIOS, as used before formatting it didn't happen, it's very weird.

  I find that the reason for the problem never happened to any computer that.

  Best regards

  and what happen when you install the system using the recovery disk?
  The laptop is too cold?

  I doubt that someone will be able to say why the unit does not close properly.
  First of all, I think its necessary to find out if its hardware or software problem.

  In the case where its software related issue, the recovery disc that contains the image of configured Toshiba should fix this annoying problem.

  Just install CS5, enter your serial number CS5 upgrade, and then enter the serial number CS2 as a product calling.

  Thank you! I tried what you mentioned, nothing has worked... I plugged a usb keyboard and it works, so I'm starting to believe it could be a motherboard problem. I finally got windows xp pro installed, no conflicts in Device Manager, all the drivers are installed and now running smooth. I removed the keyboard, and re-set, all connections look good, but still not good. the synaptics keyboard works fine and both rt & lft click the buttons. I pulled the ram to inspect it, it's the right speed, ddr2700, and after running for an hour, it was cold to the touch!

• resize boot camp partition, formatted and installed windows 7 - now cannot open in vmware fusion

  Here are the steps that I took...

  1 has started with the copy of Windows XP in the boot camp partition. "This is accessible from VMWare Fusion."

  2 resized (from 6 GB to 18 GB) and formatted the boot camp partition.

  3 successfully installed Windows 7 directly in the resized partition boot camp (not through VMWare Fusion).

  4. starts in OSX (latest version), open VMWare Fusion and attempted to access the partition to boot camp/vm. Received an error message charging me to disassemble and reassemble the physical disk changes. However, since I did it, he cannot find a bootable disc, therfore making it the useless bootcamp VM.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Paul

  Note: These steps assume that you have a default Apple installation of Windows and a VMware Fusion Boot Camp Virtual Machine default partition and if you changed the Boot Camp partition the 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 Virtual Machine package first.

  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 remove the Boot Camp Virtual Machine meta-data partition. Note: This does not affect the Boot Camp partition to install Windows. Also make sure that you copy the entire command below "rm" line at the beginning of the ' (quote) after the p in the Camp. "

  RM - dfr "/Users/$ the specified item was not found./Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines / Boot Camp."

  3. start Fusion (/ Applications/VMware Fusion) and select the Boot Camp partition on the library of the Virtual Machine window, and then click the run button.

  Notes: Then, an authentication dialog box appears. "VMware Fusion requires that you type your password." Enter your name and password, and then click OK. (It is necessary to remove the Boot Camp for the merge partition to access it directly).

  Then, we should see a Boot Camp partition message stating "VMware Fusion prepares your Boot Camp partition to run as a virtual machine. This may take a few minutes. This occurs once. »

  When the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine starts for the first time after this VMware Tools may want or will install/update and restart the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine.

• How can I install the drivers for Boot Camp of MacBook Pro?

  Joe Kissel, author of "Take control of VMWare Fusion 2," recommends users to install Apple's Boot Camp drivers to access remote cameras Apple Remote and iSight in VMWare:

  To install the Boot Camp Windows drivers:

  1. with Windows running in the merger, insert your Leopard installation DVD.

  The Boot Camp installer should run automatically.

  Auto repair: If the installation program does not work, check to see if the virtual

  CD/DVD drive is in use. To do this, open the Virtual Machine >

  Menu of the CD/DVD. If disconnect CD/DVD is selected, select it. That

  should cause the Boot Camp Installer run; If not, click Start >

  (My) Computer and double click on the DVD icon.

  What I find instead is:

  

  Which is weird, because I do not use a MacBook Air, but rather a MacBook Pro (unibody). I can even see Boot Camp files on the CD/DVD drive, but don't know what to do with them.

  You can close Windows and then go into Windows Explorer on the CD/DVD drive and navigate to : \BootCamp\setup.exe and double-click it to start installing Boot Camp drivers. (The label of the disc will probably show that "WindowsSupport" in Windows Explorer.)

• A new system with a clean install of Win 7 64 bit Pro. Try to install win XP virtual machine.

  A new system with a clean install of Win 7 64 bit Pro.  Try to install win XP virtual machine. The virtual machine "put" file installs and then restarts.  During the configuration phase it reboots it gets 94% done gives a message 'update failed' and said that no files have been modified.  I redownlaoded the file and reinstalled several times.  I changed the bios to make sure that hardware virtualization is enabled.  All tests that microsft has said that my Machine is fine.  However I can not get the software\update of the virtual machine in order to install properly.  Any thoughts?  Thanks in advance.  Bruce

• Boot camp install Win 7 on iMac 27 "(ultimo 2009)"

  Hello

  I am experiencing a problem installing Win 7 on my iMac 27 "(ultimo 2009)." I got this version installed two years without a problem, but now it concerns me.

  When you create the partition, bootcamp and starting from the Win 7 DVD I am able to install it without problem. When the PC reboots after you download windows support on my USB, install windows and is about to start Windows for the first time, it freezes and the screen is all black.

  I read on the support site you need to create and image of the Win 7 dvd which should be used in conjunction with boot camp, but I can't choose this option (it simply is not here) "disk image", when using boot camp.

  So what to do?

• What version of Firefox options do I have to use Firefox on the new laptop running Win 7 64 bit, and how do I move bookmarks current laptop running Firefox 3.5.13 again laptop?

  Currently running on the laptop using Windows XP pro sp3 Firefox 3.5.13 and want to move my favorites to a new laptop. New laptop using Win 7 pro 64 - bit OS. I've read too many conflicting reports on Firefox and Win 7 and Firefox works on a real 64 - bit version. What are my choices for a stable browser for the new laptop and what specific version of Firefox is recommended, and the advantages and disadvantages of this suggestion? (I think we can run Firefox 32-bit version in the 64-bit environment, but which is the best choice?) I have not installed Firefox on the new laptop yet and am eager to dump IE. It is displayed for my old laptop. Thank you...

  Mozilla working on a 64-bit version of Firefox, but it's a way off. Currently, the only release versions are 32-bit, and the next major version will be also only 32 bits.

  I recommend that you install the latest version of publication (3.6.10) available since http://www.mozilla.com/

  To copy bookmarks, follow the procedure described in the article restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer to save a json file, you can import (restore) on the new laptop. You can copy more bookmarks, for details, see back up and restore the information contained in the Firefox profiles and backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base Profile. The last link includes a third-party utility that can make the process easier.
