• Computer turns on but does not boot to Windows, startup repair does not work

  When I turn on my laptop, it brings me to a screen titled "Windows Error Recovery" which means the following:

  "Windows did not start.  A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. »

  He asks me if I want to '(recommended) launch Startup Repair' or 'Start Windows normally'.

  When I select repair system, the screen turns off for half a second only and brings back me to the exact page as I was already on.

  When I select "Start Windows normally", he brings me to the loading screen that usually starts with Vista (anyone who says (c) Microsoft Corporation), except that it never stops loading.  I left for hours, and he was still on the same screen.

• All network devices can see each other + Windows 7 computer, but machine Windows 7 can not see them

  Hello. Under the network of my machine Windows 8 folder, I can see all the devices on the network. This includes a printer, my computer Windows 7 (what I can access), an Apple TV (from special software), a wireless hard drive, the router and a digital recorder.

  The Windows 7 machine, I can only see the router and the printer. On special software, the Apple TV does not either. When you perform the Windows 8 computer host as a server for the special software, the Windows 7 machine could not see it on the special software. This means that there is something wrong on the Windows 7 this machine is not allowing him to detect other devices.

  In a game of LAN, Windows 7 and Windows 8 computers can't see each other.

  All devices are on the internet and I am posting this from the Windows 7 machine right now.

  Windows 7 and Windows 8 machine are on the same network.

  No device is on a host group and the group home service is disabled.

  Peer networking is enabled.

  Network discovery is turned on.

  Both connections are set to private/Home.

  Originally, the Windows 7 machine has been on his own home group and could be seen by anything. After a few hours, I finally got out of the home group, how other devices could see him then. However, he cannot always see other devices.

  How can I get the Windows 7 machine to see other devices? I am at a loss. Is there a service that I have disabled right now that needs to be enabled? I don't know what to do.

  Hello

  original title: HOW I CAN UNINSTALL LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM

  If there is absolutely nothing on the disk you want, just format the drive and install Windows XP:

  1. start from the CD. You may need to change the first boot to a CD device in the BIOS. To do this, when you switch on the look for a configuration message indicating what key to start typing, F2 and del are commonly used. The message appears for very long and it you miss, you have to restart the computer. In the BIOS, look for a section that contains the boot sequence, change it to CD, save it and let the computer to restart.

  2. the installation sequence is answering the message press any key to boot from the CD, and then press ENTER to set up Windows, press F8 to accept the EULA, delete the partition, press ENTER, type L to confirm delete, type C to create a partition, choose (Quick) format. Then begins the installation and restart will therefore ignore the subsequent message to press any key to boot from the CD-ROM.

  3. actual installation will begin and takes about 30 minutes. Finally, download all the missing Windows service packs and other updates.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded
  on your system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is
  Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
  company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
  the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
  the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
  Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
  MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
  If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
  you have.

  Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
  and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
  their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
  Site of the manufacturer here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN -.
  REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you are
  installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
  later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
  Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
  SCANNER - check manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  the above methods is preferable to ensure the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable driver facilities

  pilots who are generally older and cause problems. If updates provides a new
  driver then hide it (right click on it) and then go get new ones manually if

• SuperDrive drive broken don't Boot Camp Windows at El Capitan

  I tried many schemes proposed in this forum and at least a dozen different ways to do El Capitan boot camp Windows. I have run csrutil disable recovery and used the utility gdisk to rewrite the workout plan to use GPT.  It seems to go as far as the installation of all files of Windows 10 then I get the message Windows "Windows didn't prepare the computer to start the next phase of the installation.» To install Windows, restart the installation. "I tried bcdboot c:\windows and manually enter the drive and also the partition GUID I recorded option detail gdisk. But I get errors co so there is something that has always does not run.

  I have not yet tried Rufus. I used unetbootin to make my Windows 10 microsoft 64-bit ISO flash player. I also have an OEM Windows 8 disc bought three years ago. I am a little concerned by the barking of multiple trees simultaneously.

  It's a MacBookPro6, 1 EFI and SMC confirm current. 8 GB Crucial RAM. The SuperDrive doesn't work, or my burner USB Pioneer BD-204 (with confirmation last firmware, which actually turns into a BD-205) will allow you to install windows despite offering an optical EFI partition after the option - reboot. I was able to get Windows installed from a USB key that I did leave an ISO download unetbootin Using Microsoft as described. Maybe Rufus has solved this problem?

  I am entirely prepared to scrub the entire disk (that I had actually done yesterday, by a genius) and start from scratch if I could just find a step - who would work in reality. I really need to boot camp Windows 8 or 10 of this machine again.

  I'm even ready to install another internal drive instead the SuperDrive for boot camp Windows, but I want to assure you that I have does not work in the same exact questions if I take this step.

  Also boot camp just offers me the possibility to specify an ISO standard, there isn't that two not three check boxes and whenever I try from the disk, I get the black 'system unboot press a button' block after it restarts.

  I also edited info.plist of boot camp to add my model to the list of the 32 bit patterns.

  There is absolutely no problem backup etc., yesterday, the genius was so smart that he told me to try a Microsoft store.

  Please help this is going on 10 days, that I tried to fix this now. Should I go back to the Apple Store and ask them to put the Mavericks on this? That's how I got 8.1 Windows boot planted three years ago.

  Have you looked at this - http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/install-a-windows-7-partition-on-mac-osx-wit hout-optical-car-or - usb.1836959 / #post... ?

  Do not install a second Optibay drive, until Windows is completely installed, otherwise you will encounter more questions.

• Boot Camp Windows 10 Upgrade does not work

  Hello world!

  I use Windows 7 Professional SP1 with boot camp, I managed to function very well.

  I bought a legal copy of Windows 7 Professional and active, it yesterday, so all is good and works as it should (more or less)

  I did it on my iMac 5 k (end of 2014). I use version 6 of boot camp and installed all updates in OSX as well on Windows 7 via the apple software update tool.

  Now, I decided to upgrade to Windows 10 but somehow it does not work for me as it should.

  I am able to do 10 downloaded Windows and Setup will start, but immediately after it will crash.

  I use the German version so I can only tell you what is presented here:

  "eine handcrafted befehlszeile [/DynamicUpdate] angegeben wurde.

  I don't know what the problem is, I tried 3 times more using the Microsoft upgrade page.

  I also tried the MediaCreationTool but I still get the same error at the beginning of the installation.

  What I need to install additional drivers on my USB dongle or do I have to remove my USB mouse and the USB dongle (which is always to have the files to install boot camp Windows 7 top)?

  I don't see what else to do and hope that someone here knows how to perform the upgrade properly.

  Kind regards

  ela7ion

  Update!

  The upgrade succeeded finally!

  I managed to do the upgrade after removing all devices that are connected to the iMac before.

  This includes:

  -SuperDrive

  -USB mouse

  -USB dongle

  I then started the tool to upgrade from the Microsoft Web site and guess what: it worked.

  Best regards

• Double boot with Windows 8 and 7 Pro in a G6 - 2235us Notebook

  I have a G6 - laptop computer 2235us 64-bit included with Windows installed 8.0.
  I would like to install Windows 7 Pro and make double book with Windows 8.0 with 7 as the default to start.

  Please would you give me steps on how to proceed and also the drivers, etc., I would need to download.
  Thank you.

  You are the very welcome.

  Yes everything seems to make sense to me.

  Two suggestions...

  I would label the volume 8 of Windows and not Windows 8 Pro W8, since your laptop did not come with Windows 8 Pro.

  I believe that you can not temporarily disable secure boot.

  You should leave the setting to disabled, or you will not be able to boot in Windows 7.  Windows 7 is not compatible with secure startup.

  Or whenever you want to start in W7, you will need to first go into the BIOS and disable the secure startup parameter, restart and then select W7 to boot from, which would take a lot of unnecessary time, IMO.

  I don't know if it was me, I would leave all the parameter start secure off all the time.

  Subject to the comments preceding, I think it should work very well.

• Caused Windows updates computer crash

  Anyone else have problems with latest updates (from June 30 to July 10)?  Since June 30, my computer has stopped unexpectedly 5 times.  I ran virus scan, ad-aware, etc.  The only thing that worked was a system restore before June 30.  Unfortunately, Windows automatically updated again and I had the same problems.  I had to remove the updates manually.  Any ideas why this happened?

  Hello

  ·             You receive an error message when the computer crashes?

  ·             What anti-virus program do you use?

  Method 1:

  I suggest you try to install the update one by one and check the update is causing the problem.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/Windows-Update

  Method 2:

  It is possible that the software security or any third-party program installed on the computer is in conflict with the update of Windows.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state, and you try to install updates.

• Slow down your Windows XP computer

  Edition with Service Pack of Windows XP _ _?

  System specs like processor manufacturer, the speed and number of cores; memory/memory RAM of the system; Device video/graphic card and if he has his own memory or sharing system memory; total amount and free hard drive space?

  Use Belarc Advisor (it is a link to download it, install it and get a report) to get some of this information.

  What antivirus application do you use?   (If you say that McAfee or Norton anything - you could help your speed by changing those - more information once you answer the questions.)

  What maintenance do you?

  May want to browse this list (and all the steps as stated in the order given).

  Search for malware:

  The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.) You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

  You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

  Learned things that start when you turn on the computer and what you really need? Cut of those that you don't need? Seen what is really using the resources on your computer? Now that you have narrowed down to what is running at any given time...

  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
  5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

  You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

  Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

  -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
  -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
  -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
  -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
  -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
  -Click OK.
  -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
  -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

  You can use an application that scans your system for the log files and temporary files and use it to get rid of those who:
