Press any key to put an end to an exe BACKS run in system.exe VI

Hi I am running some old programs exe based BACK.  Two programs that run one after the other, loop and redo (variables are modified for each loop) the first exe program requires the user to "press any key" to put an end (close window CMD.  When I start my VI using the sub - VI system.exe to run DOS programs I have to "Press any key" to close the window and leave my VI to continue a loop.  Or if I use the option 'Until the end', I find myself with a bunch of Windows CMD to close at the end.  There must be a simple way to "simulate a key shot" Plan B is to train a monkey to sit in front of the key board...

I using Labview 2013 under windows XP / 7

Thank you

Check out this post.  If this does not work for you, you can try to use SendKey in a Powershell script.  Good luck.

Full disclosure, I did none of these, can't vouch for their usefulness.

    Hi DavidMuya,

    To stop this message from appearing, follow these steps:

    (a) remove any CD from the drive before you turn on or restart the computer.

    (b) enter the BIOS and change the boot hard drive sequence instead. You will need to change if you plan to boot from a CD in the future.

    Note: Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Just to isolate the problem, try to download a new copy of Windows 7, and then try again:

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

    Regarding problems with the computer itself, try to disconnect all nonessential equipment attached to it to see if the problem persists.

    I would also try switching around components such as modules of memory to see if the problem persists.

    I would also check to make sure that all components are mounted and installed correctly.

  • Nonsystem disk, press any key

    I can't find my restore CD. I installed on my laptop of Acronis but do not know if this will help.

    Please help me.

    Hello

    First of all I would like to know what model phone you have and what Windows system do you use?

    Regarding the question:
    It seems that you have a master boot record error. This means that preinstalled system is too bad and therefore he cannot be started
    It is possible that the partition on the HARD drive is confusing upward too

    But the fact is that you have need of a system disk or recovery in the repair of the order or to install the system again without these drives, you wouldn't be able to get the laptop running using Microsoft Windows disk, you can try to repair the MBR.

    But the Toshiba Recovery cannot be used to repair the system, you can use the recovery disk to reinstall the image

  • Satellite L300D-222: "insert the boot disk and press any key".

    Hello

    My laptop froze this morning and so I stopped it when restarting it however, I received the message "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key", what it means?

    I didn't not get discs with the laptop, or have I made the recovery discs. The instruction manual says to press f8 when I restart and go to "menu of advanced start", but it doesn't matter. Where should I go from here, is there a program I can download that would have this disc? All my work on the computer will be lost?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hello

    He looks at the HARD drive died and so the laptop can not boot from the HARD drive but request disk bootable.
    But to be sure, you need to access the BIOS (press F2) and check if the HARD drive is recognized in the BIOS.
    If it s not recognized, then you need a new HARD drive.

    The recovery disc can be ordered here:

  • Satellite A50 - failed to resume, press any key to continue

    Hello

    Whenever my laptop goes to sleep is not wake up until I push the power button / stop twice. First to stop and then go and then I get this message:
    WARNING: Failure to resume
    Press any key to continue

    Please need help to solve this problem
    Thank you

    Usually bad drivers or a battery flat results in failure to resume.

    You can try a system restore to a date where HP was working properly and update the drivers for your USB devices.

    If it's any help, then maybe its time to back up your data and run your recovery disc recovery. Its good to do this once a year to keep the system clean and error-free. Windows tends to become slow and loses errornous over time, because of the power, viruses, software badly written, etc...

  • Pavilion dv6 - 7095ca: no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key


    Thanks for your help and please excuse my bad English.
    Please check item 7, if you're in a hurry. This is the point with my Pavilion DV6 - 7095-CA:

    (1) the operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit), the provided original with my 7095CA Pavilion, more updates HP until 2013, and all Windows updates until July 2015.

    (2) now I can't access the operating system and I have no interface UEFI. I can see that I press F2 at startup, just a test simple disk in BIOS f.0Une (the test shows that the disc is OK)

    (3) return in 2013 it took a drive failure. I did replace the disk and reinstall original Win7, all updates, including the HPS, win7 updates and all my personal software.

    (4) at this time, I bought a spare hard drive and did a complete copy of the disc using Partition Wizard bootable cd. The second disc has been tested and worked perfectly, with all of my personal software on this subject.

    So I have 2 HDs identical with the same system on both drives, fully working and tested.

    (5) a few days ago I came across the HP website and made a few updates, including the BIOS f.0Une (the last BIOS update, was of course).

    (6) after BIOS update ran, I received the message "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key".

    (7) I couldn't solve the problem, so I did remove the hard drive and install my backup drive, which lay in a dry place without danger from 2013.

    (8) I turned on the computer and got the same message "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key", and I couldn't find any way to solve this problem.

    Now I'm doing a new installation on a third HD everything works very well, so far, in the new facility and I will never buy HP again.

    Hello

    Seems that the laptop can not find the bootable source.
    This means that the HARD drive is malfunctioning or the boot sector is defective.

    By the way; have you tried to change the boot order in the BIOS?

  • G72 Pavilion. : no boot device. Insert the disk and press any key

    My hard drive died recently. I installed a new. Now I'm gettig no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key. What should I do to fix this?

    Hello

    If you find your recovery DVD, you can use them to reinstall the operating system on the new drive - this is described in the document of HP here.

    If you do not, you can order a replacement set by starting at the link below-, the cost can vary a bit depending on where you live, but they are generally inexpensive.

    Order HP recovery disks.

    If you have a problem with this link, try to order them directly from HP.

    If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

    If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

    Kind regards

  • I screwed up trying to install windows on my computer 10 and I XE off installer and now its says "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key".

    I was just trying to download 10 on my computer windows using boot camp assistant. I answered the questions for windows when you need to respond as what kind of language you use and then I messed up on one of the questions. I didn't know how to go back so I just pressed the red x. When I did that he must get off my computer and when it's done I got a black screen and then it says "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key" I don't know what he meant by no bootable disk and I was hoping that you guys can help me fix.

  • No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key

    Hello

    I was with boot camp to install 10 Windows from a usb key. The first problem I encountered was an error message stating that Windows supports software could not be downloaded on my flash drive. I read that the necessary drivers could be installed later so I unchecked the box. The part of the installation, then training camp as it should (create a partition etc.)

    However, when the Mac went to restart and (probably) to start the program installation of Windows, the error message "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key" displayed. My problem is the wireless keyboard does not respond and the light on this issue seems to suggest that it is not connected. My guess is that the drivers needed, such as Bluetooth are not there.

    I'd be happy enough to restart OS x and forget all about Windows, but I can't see how to get around this problem?

    A wired keyboard could work?

    any help is appreciated!

    Thanks in advance

    Max.

    A wired keyboard and mouse will work. If you try to install Windows and tried to download the Windows software on a wireless network, try a wired connection. to rebuild your USB Installer.

  • Remove disks or other media.__Press press any key to restart

    Hello

    I've seen a few posts on this topic but not have been very useful.

    My computer (Dell Inspiron 2200) was relatively slow and I decided to reformat the machine.  After doing that it seems the hard drive was fried in the process that I have been unable to get the machine to boot properly after the reformatting process.  When I ran a diagnostic on the computer, a message was also discussed more leading to believe that this was the case.  This is why I took an old hard drive that I had and tried to use it on the machine.  I created a Windows startup disk by downloading the file and burn a disk.  I changed the order of BIOS to move the CD drive first on the list and the error "remove disks or other media."  " Press any key to restart" continues to be displayed.  Please help me

    Thank you
