Only UEFI won't boot Windows Installation DVD

As you can see on my subject matter, my phone W520 won't boot from my Windows 7 Installation DVD when it is set to UEFI mode only. I get no error or anything, just the screen goes black for a second and go back to the Start Menu and when I select the DVD player. For what it's worth, my hard drive is already partitioned GPT, and I need to repair the installation.

Before you ask for help, I just want to mention that I created this particular Installation DVD of Windows 7 using the all-in-one tutorial that I have 32-bit and 64 - bit options all on the same disc. The drive starts very well in boot mode "Legacy/UEFI", so I don't know what the problem is. Someone saw this?

EDIT: I followed this tutorial: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=186440 and I'm in step 14.

  • Problem with a digital signature on a Windows installation DVD

    I bought a new laptop which has Windows 8.1, but I rather have Windows 7. This is why I bought a new copy of Windows 7 Home Premium, on a DVD. I think it's authentic. The DVD has holograms fantasies around the hub, which would probably be difficult to simulate. Unfortunately, the installation does not work. He gets regarding copying the files from the DVD and compression of the CAB files. The computer restarts and the installation is stopped due to an error. It seems that the file C:\~WINDOWS\~BT\System32\winload.efi has a digital signature that can be verified. The file must come from the DVD. The same file in the data Windows 8.1 is a part of Microsoft, and it has a valid digital signature. How does it all, that the same file from the DVD is not recognized by Microsoft?


    It is possible, in the F8 advanced boot options, key to select an option 'Disable driver signing checking', but I can't make it work. The setting is lost when the system reboots and no amount of pressure on the F8 key it will answer. In msdn some additional ways are described, to disable driver signing checking, but I'm not confident about their use. In any case, I wouldn't tinkering like that, with a DVD so-called Microsoft authentic.

  • Boot camp won't load windows installation after partitioning HD

    Hi, I am trying to install Windows 8.1 on my Macbook Pro (retina, 13-inch, early 2015, El Capitan). I have the ISO 64-bit file and load the application of assistant boot camp to make the installation process. She was able to partition my hard drive, and after that, he tries to restart in windows. However after a little more the blue screen with the windows icon turns into a blue screen with an emoticon, frowny face and a message saying "your PC came across a problem and must restart. We are only collecting the error information, and then we'll restart for you". After about a minute, restarted my computer, but in the mac OSX... How should I complete the installation of Windows?

    Stop your Mac, start it and hold the Alt/Option key. If you see a Windows or Boot EFI icon, select and check if your installation will start. If it is not the case, use BC Wizard to delete the partition of BC and start the process.

  • Tecra A10 won't boot windows 7

    Dear forum
    I used Easeus todo backup to backup my OS.
    Later I stupidly formatted the hard drive probably clear in the important boot partition/sector that may have existed.

    After that I "restored" the windows image file on my laptop 7

    Unfortunately, it does not start

    When I start the laptop I get the message "insert system disk... then press a key."

    Nobody knows is anyway I can now do my windows 7 bootable again please
    Ian

    Try to start the Windows 7 disc.
    Then you should be able to start the Repair Console.
    In the console, you can use the commands * FixMbr * and * FixBoot * to repair the master boot record.
    In case this is not enough, I think you would need to reinstall the system again

  • IdeaCentre PCs include an installation of Windows 7 DVD?

    If I buy a PC with Windows 7 pre-installed IdeaCentre K-series, Lenovo includes an OEM of Windows 7 installation DVD?

    I don't know of a DVD factory restore, which erases the hard drive and restores all the software shipped with the computer.

    Please understand that I do not value judgments, just expressing a personal preference: I like to have a Windows 7 install DVD with all new computer I buy.

    If Lenovo does not include a Windows installation DVD, I can ask one of Lenovo, possibly a surcharge?

    Well, this was an easy decision:

    After the futile research website of Lenovo and after having received two vaguely formulated, inconclusive answers from Lenovo technical support - and have to wait almost a week for everyone - I decided not to buy a Lenovo desktop computer.

    The kicker came during a "chat" with the pre-sales support, when I discovered that the IdeaCenter K320 Office announced on the Lenovo Web site does not actually exist.

    As you probably know Evesham closed to the public in 2008.

    I think that your computer is a portable computer. I can't access a free copy of the manual, but I imagine that you have a copy of the operating system on the hard drive in a recovery partition. Am I wrong?

    Before attempting to repair your computer, you will need to back up your data files on removable media. If the computer does not start, you need access to a second computer at home. Do you have a? If Yes is it a desktop or a laptop?

    I would also ask if you comfortable using a screwdriver to remove the hard drive of your laptop Evesham, put it on an external support which can be purchased via Amazon and its connection to a USB port on the second computer. These are not difficult tasks, but not everyone wants to take on this task. If not comfortable take your laptop to a local computer repair shop.

    As for the repair of your laptop once you have recovered your data files, restore the operating system to factory settings using the copy of Windows XP, which I think is more than likely in a recovery partition. It will be activated by single key, perhaps the F10 or F11 key or you can have an option in the menu that appears when you press the F8 key during the boot process. It also seems that Evesham commonly supplied recovery discs.

    If a factory restore does not work I would then test the memory.

  • (Redirected) 10 Windows Installer failed: no video display, screen, impossible to boot-to-use computer only black

    Hi all I recently upgraded from Dell s 660 Windows 8.1 for Windows 10 PC. That part went well, no problem.

    Then, I decided that I wanted to clean things up I did a Reset, delete all settings of Windows. This ultimately failed and I got an error message that the bootstrapper has been damaged. Computer would not boot successfully.

    OK, so I decided to do a clean install to solve this problem. See the Microsoft Web site and download a tool to create bootable USB stick with Windows 10 installation files

    Then I inserted the USB in the broken computer, restarted, and the installation begins without any problem. I got all the way to the screen where I choose which partition to install the OS on. I chose the right partition and clicked ok, then leaves the room for a few minutes. I came back and met with a black screen, but the computer still worked. I waited about 30 minutes, but there was no change, so I decided to restart.

    Given zero has not set the problem. The computer always starts and I see the hard drive activity light flashes from time to time, but I don't see anything on the screen. No DELL logo at the start as there were no past, no loading spinner, nothing... Pressing F8 does not seem to help, I can't get into the BIOS or anything. I tried with and without installation of Windows 10 bootable USB inserted, does not matter anyway the result is same - just a black screen.

    I guess it could be a hardware problem, but it feels like a very large chance that my error started to arrive for the 10 Windows Installer, so in my gut, I feel like this is probably a software problem, but I don't know. I've never had problems like that until the 10th of Windows Installer.

    I have tried both HDMI and VGA ports, nor work. It has integrated video, so these ports are directly on the motherboard. Any ideas on how to fix?

  • Cannot boot from CD - DVD in LEGACY mode - NO Secure Boot UEFI NOT

    You just bought an Optiplex 7010 minitower with Win 8 Pro 64 - bit, 8 GB of RAM, 500 GB HDD and an Intel i5 processor 3470.  Now he has BIOS version A16.

    It is normally ON UEFI and Secure Boot on IT and F12 at startup does NOT normally display the CD-DVD as a boot option.  OK - no problem.

    However, if I reboot with F12 and select UEFI OFF (meaning WE legacy) and Secure Boot SHUTDOWN and reboot, then F12 DON'T show me the CD - DVD as a startup option, but if I actually try to boot from a bootable CD, I get an error message.

    I practiced with two CD bootable - a Knoppix I did on a XP machine an Aomei Backupper I did on a Win 7 machine.  These CD working as in my old XP machine boot CD, and the CD of Backupper of Aomei worked someone else machine Win 7 Pro 64 bit.

    What's wrong?

    Again, please let me repeat that I am trying to boot from the CD-DVD AFTER I have turned OFF UEFI, turned on the legacy and off Secure Boot.

    Thank you.

    Speed - although you predicted, I am amazed at what I did today.

    I bought a second hard drive (in white) and installed Win 7 Pro 64 - bit SP1 on it.  (I unplugged the first hard drive which has my Win 8 Pro 64-bit.  (Later to figure out how to dual-boot - no not yet for that.)

    What struck me is that I have installed SP1 for Win 7 Pro 64-bit while my BIOS is UEFI - it's ON UEFI and Secure Boot off.  (Enable Legacy ROM is enabled.)  BIOS is the Windows Boot Manager.  The Win 7 Pro 64 - bit SP1 DVD ran perfectly on my CD - DVD unit - no problems of any kind.  The machine has restarted several times, as I adjusted it settings and added the resource of Dell Media CD drivers.

    Disk Management displays only two partitions - a little with the legend "Healthy (EFI System Partition)" and then my C:\ drive, which is indicated be NTFS and 'in good condition (boot, Page File, crash dump, primary Partition).  The properties for the entire drive 0 said "Partition Style: GUID Partition Table (GPT).

    Now - is it good or bad?  If one day I try to dual-boot, what is incompatible with the four partitions on my hard drive to win 8 (now offline)?  Install this fake Win 7?

    I'm even more amazed than the Win 7 Pro 64 - bit auto installed SP1 with a product key that is different from the product key for my Win 8 Pro 64-bit.  The Dell OEM Windows 7 installation disc done by himself - I don't have to enter anything.  Which is good news for a future dual-boot, Yes?

    I have NOT yet connected to the internet.

    Now, when I unplugged my hard drive of origin WIn 8, I disconnected the Sata data cable and used for the new hard drive Win 7 added.  If the new hard drive is connected to data SATA motherboard even as the drive of origin 8 Win.  Well, at some point when I use two hard drives, one of them should be connected to another plug SATA on the MB - but not yet.

    Well... How do I fortunately to this stage so far?

  • Windows 7 x 64 installation DVD does not start on a Dell XPS One 2710

    I apologize in advance for the long post...

    Just got a Dell XPS One 2710.  Lot has happened, but let me clarify the current number as briefly as possible: the machine does not start from the HARD internal disk or the Windows 7 Installer x 64 DVD.  He gets through loading files and then gray progress bar when its colorful animation it blue screens with error CACHE_MANAGER.

    I ran the diagnostic, including tests extended memory tests, and they have not found any error in what either.

    When I was troubleshooting this problem previously, in some sort the motherboard got bricks (I don't know what exactly I did to cause that), but Dell has since replaced.  The first motherboard had BIOS version A09.  It has installed A11.

    I can't find any BIOS settings combination that will allow even the Installer Windows DVD to start with the Blue error screen CACHE_MANAGER.  I tried the UEFI boot modes and legacy, I tried RAID and AHCI.  I tried with and without loading legacy OPROMs.

    What I ultimately do is set the start mode of RAID so that I can use the SSD mSATA as a cache ("Accelerate" in the Intel RST Panel).  But I can not even the installer to start on where I can load drivers RST (assuming it's even necessary).

    Other posts have suggested problems with memory, but I took each of the two DIMMS one at a time and I always had the same problem.

    Should I suspect the hard drive?  When we arrived at the machine, he seemed to be running Windows 8 very well - until we went on the way to the side dark and downgraded to Windows 7.  Then once we started to have errors on updates, things has quickly degenerated from there.  In addition, again, diagnoses don't find any problems.

    Any suggestions on how to get at least this puppy to start?   .. .or what have we done wrong?

    Thanks EJN.  It turns out that there is certainly a hardware problem on this machine.  It was a refurbished Dell making machine and apparently when they renovated the it, they missed the real problem.

    The way I know that it is material, it's that we bought actually 2 of them at the same time.  When I started to suspect the material, I decided to try this process on the other.  He worked like a knife through hot butter.  But I will say that the combination of the BIOS set to boot legacy mode and still start the installation with the option to UEFI DVD in the start menu was not easy to understand at first.  But when I followed the correct steps, everything worked very well.

    For those of you who might try this, here are a few things I learned along the way:

    1. According to EJN, take the time to get/burn a CD to install Windows 7 x 64 that already has SP1 on it.  If you go to preserve the UEFI partitions and the boot hard disk, you must have x 64.  x 86 (32-bit) does not support UEFI.

    2 unzip the RAID drivers to the * root * your USB flash or floppy drive and have it in the machine when you start the installation DVD.  I could be wrong, but it seemed to me that the installer looked for them without having to explicitly say it loads the me.

    3. as said EJN, set your BIOS boot legacy mode but use F12 at startup to bring up the Windows Boot Manager and start the installation in UEFI boot mode DVD.  If you want to implement an SSD as cache for your hard disk, you will need to set the SATA controller in RAID mode.

    4. I had partitions UEFI and was able to leave them intact.  Here's a very brief explanation: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd744301%28v=ws.10%29.aspx your results may vary.

    5 take this one as a possible suggestion that is worth what you pay for it: when I got the USB with RAID drivers at the root before starting the installation DVD, I didn't need to load the drivers explicitly.  As I said, it seems that the installation program has been smart enough to find and load what it takes, but honestly, I don't know.  When I load them explicitly, I got errors saying that the installer could not install on the partition, I had chosen.  Makes me think that I could have loaded both times.  What worked for me was NOT explicitly their cargo.

    6. you MUST be at your PC when Setup has completed copy and unpack the installation files.  Don't forget that you have your BIOS set to start legacy mode.  So when he tries to restart to complete the installation, it will try to start using the table inherited from on your hard disk - who is not here because you did a UEFI installation with partitions for UEFI.  So when Setup restarts the first time, you might as well get into the BIOS here and choose the UEFI boot mode.  If you do not, you will need to grab it whenever it restarts using F12 and manually tell it to boot from your hard drive using the UEFI.

    These steps, you should get installed and running.  But another thing I had to understand that when first, I installed and executed the dashboad Intel RST, there is no acceleration option even if my mSATA SSD was found healthy.  I found that if it is formatted and partitioned, you actually go into Disk Manager and delete the partition before the RST dashboard he sees as available for use as a cache.

    I hope this helps others out of me.  It's a heck of a lot easier when the hardware is not bad!

  • Boot Camp Windows Installation 10 - "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. It's the GPT partition style.

    Hello

    I tried to dual boot Windows 10 alongside OS X El Capitan on my iMac 21.5 inch i5 end 2013. I have followed all the instructions in the Boot Camp assistant, restart, choose the yellow 'Windows' drive to boot from, but when I get to the Windows installation, enter the product key and language, and then select the partition (0-4, the partition Disk Partition) it tells me that "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is the GPT partition style. »

    So I found this answer: How do I install Windows 8.1 on Haswell MBP

    But then I received the same error.

    Tried this: http://macriot.com/mcrt/?p=2362

    But fdisk TPG allow me to change anything, as the SIP is enabled.

    Tried to disable SIP via a command line in a terminal in recovery mode, but got an error-bash: command not found csrutil.

    So now I'm stuck on all fronts. Any ideas?

    Thank you

    RedPanda

    1. your iMac end 2013 supports the facilities of BIOS/MBR and GPT/EFI.

    2. the legacy BIOS/MBR method requires a hybrid MBR.

    3 EFI/GPT is recommended for your specific model.

    4. you can use the GPT Fdisk steps in your link to make your drive a GPT disk only. It is not enough.

    5. you will need to convert the FAT32 partition space using the following OS X Terminal

    diskutil eraseVolume free disk0s4 FREE

    This will return an error, because free space is not associated with disk slices.

    6. at this point, use the USB installer created by the wizard of BC, boot from it and hold down the Alt/Option key and select Boot EFI (not Windows). Point to the portion of the free space that you see after the + 620 MB Recovery HD. It will separate into a small (128 MB) MSR and the rest as MSD (NTFS).

    7. do not install W7 in Boot EFI, because it has some difficulties.

    8. when Windows is installed, and BC drivers are not installed, run setup.exe from the Bootcamp folder.

    9. If csrutil is not found, you are in the recovery of the Internet, because your local Recovery HD is corrupted. The rescue of the failure of the local recovery is restoration of Internet. Your must be on El Capitan. There is no csrutil (or SIP) before El Capitan.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum.

    Nowadays, most (if not all) laptops do not come with recovery media (CD/DVD, etc...)

    Computers are equipped with discs hard (or SSD) that contains the two operating system (primary partition) and hidden recovery partition. Users can boot from these recovery (instead of primary) partitions and restore the default settings (for example in the infection by the virus or if corruption of Windows).  The user can also use the built-in software and can make a backup of recovery (on DVD or USB key). Here is just one example of how this can be done:

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=bfn1IGP-TWC

    Unfortunately, as you install another operating system (Linux-based) and that you have formatted the drive HARD/partitions, these partitions of recovery very probably are no longer present. In this case, you can take the path of the long (er). You need to buy HP recovery for your computer media.

    and ask the agent (via call phone/chat/email) to guide the recovery disc for your computer purchase. They are generally cheap and arrive quickly on.

    > The instructions suggest to insert the Windows recovery disc to try to "fix" the error, but it has not provided with my laptop so what should I do? Is it possible to get one from Toshiba or download?

    The laptop should be equipped with HARD drive recovery option which would mean you could recover the laptop without any disk.
    Press F8 during the switching on of the laptop. Then choose fix my computer.
    Then choose Toshiba Recovery and launch the installation

    Finally, if the computer starts correctly create the recovery DVDs using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
