Problem with dual booting BACK and Win7.

I tried to configure a machine as follows: 0 = 250 G SATA drive with 512 byte sectors BACK 6.22, only fine boots. Disc 1 = 500 G SATA with 4K with Win 7 sectors. When you install Windows 7 on disk 1, it ignores the C: drive on drive 0 and affects the C: drive letter in the windows partition. Because the c: drive on drive 0 is no longer a drive letter designation, no bootstrapper is installed. I cannot change the letter of the windows system drive, in disk management, and as such cannot get BACK start as the C: drive. This is new behavior, I did install it on NT 3.5 thru XP on the same reader or different readers without fail. Win 7 enter the C drive letter for the system drive? If so I'll have to go back to XP for double boot installs. I get this same behavior on a single disc with the two BONES. If anyone has an answer, I guess that the next option may be a third-party boot loader.

I need a startup BACK too, the only way for me to do is to install BACK first, and then XP and win7

After that it starts on win7, xp (earlier version of windows), select and then from there BACK.

It's 2 steps instead on the 1 step :) but it works

  • Problem with dual boot

    Recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my desk and its poster option for 'Windows 7 (loader)' bootloader, but by selecting, the screen turns white and back to the same screen...

    I guess, I made changes to settings where in fact the Windows 7 operating system.
    Even tried to fix the beginning of the problems using Windows 7 installation DVD, but it shows that it has no problem starting

    And even the charger Linux said that there is no problem

    Help, please.
    Thank you :-)

    I would try using the bootsec tool
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/927392#

    using the /scanOS switch that he must analyze the master boot record disks and fix all the invalid entries, you said can kill ubuntu when windows re-written the boot record.
    to work around these sorts of errors with Dual Boot ubuntu in the past I have installed ubuntu to a sick card 32 GB SD or USB then to start, I just hit my boot option and choose the SD/USB instead of my hard drive. (I think that this can be with the Universal USB Linux installer..)
    This way Ubuntu and Windows never have to fight for space MBR as it is completely controlled by the BIOS to start select. Or if you are using a desktop computer, get a 2nd drive internal, disconnect your windows drive, install ubuntu on the other drive, then connect your windows you save. This way you can make the same boot select tip and 2 OS are on completely separate disks and will not conflict. (Also makes it much easier if you need to re - install one of the 2 operating systems)
    I hope this helps and good luck
  • How dual boot Vista and Windows 7

    I'm using vista Home premium and want to install windows 7 a.m. premium as a dual boot. If I decide later by far with windows vista and keep only 7 How can proceed?

    Assuming that my OS is windows 7 can I use the same disk of vista on the virtual machine with the same product key.

    Vista and 7 cannot exist on the same partition as a dual boot? How to do it.

    Is ther to disadvantages in dual boot?

    There are no real problems with dual boot if it's Setup corrrectly.

    You need operating systems on separate partitions (readers not necessarily distinct, but definitely separate from the partitions).

    If you uninstall Vista later and it's a copy to the details of the program, then you can install it in a virtual drive using the same product key (but you'll probably need to activate manually).

    Here's how Dual boot Vista with Widows7: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/5166-dual-boot-installation-windows-7-vista.html.

    Although written for other systems, the process to remove a dual boot will work with Windows7 and Vista (although you may need to use the commands and Windows7 disk): http://vistasupport.mvps.org/remove_windows_vista_from_dual_boot_system.htm depending on the situation and that was installed first.

  • How do I set up a dual boot Vista and XP with 2 hard drives?

    Dual boot Vista and XP with 2 hard drives

    I tried to get my computer has a separate hard drive put in place that lets me run Windows XP or Windows Vista. I tried the path of the CMD, but I could do things wrong with that because the news NTLDR appeared much too different info from Vista. Currently, I have deleted this change to the startup configuration. I want to know what I have to do to get these two to be able to boot. I noticed problems similar to mine, but the answer always seems to be a software that would cost me money.

    Thank you

    Tevans95

    Hello Tevans95,

    You cannot install two different operating systems on two different disks. For a dual-boot environment, you must install both XP and Vista on the same drive with different partitions.

    In addition, you must install Windows XP first and then Windows Vista.

    You can check the items below which will give you information on Dual boot.

    Install multiple operating systems (multiboot)

    Set up a dual-boot system

    Change the default operating system for startup (multiboot)

    There is no software that can help you to install XP and Vista on different drives.

  • Equium L10: Problem with the main battery and battery RTC

    Hello

    I have the Toshiba Equium L10 and it is about 14 months old and I have problems with the battery and how much time it takes after a full charge. I also have problems with the RTC battery and an ERROR 0271: check date and time settings message when I turn on the laptop.

    Regarding the battery, I can fully charge it upward in about 3 hours, but when I start to use it, apparently in the last few hours around one and a half or so and then it needs to be recharged. I can have down for about 40 minutes and then turn it off and come back later or in a day or two. How long should I expect from a fully charged battery?

    About the batttery RTC, it really becomes a pain and I only started to get the message of the ERROR 0271 start-up, in recent weeks. I can charge the battery pack and then leave for a few days, but when I turn it on, I get the message ERROR 0271 on the date and time incorrect. Surely after a full charge, the RTC battery should last longer than a few days?

    The manual says that if the RTC battery is exhausted or becomes weak, you must charge the battery of the CCF for 24 hours, in a different part of this manual indicates between 24 and 48 hours, but how can load you for long when the sections concerning the charging battery pack status after charging the battery you unplug the power adapter because leaving connected will shorten the life expectancy of the Battery Pack. So, how we can charge the battery of the CCF for 24 to 48 hours if we shouldn't leave the AC adapter plugged in once the battery is charged - which is nearly three hours. Suggestions about these problems would be appreciated.

    Besides we all know that it is easy to change the CMOS/RTC battery in your desktop base unit, but is it easy to change in a Toshiba Equium L10?

    Concerning

    Brave0

    Hi Brave0,

    The normal recommendation for the CMOS (RTC) battery is to leave the laptop connected to the power supply at least 12 hours when the main battery is fully charged. The charging circuit is going to hijack the current to the load automatically RTC battery and no current will be forwarded to your main battery.

    Recommendation do not leave the power adapter is plugged in the main battery is fully charged is really only applicable to older laptops that used no batteries Li - ion and therefore they had to be completely discharged before recharging to avoid any effect 'memory' of the battery.

    With modern Li-ion batteries, it is quite safe to leave the battery when fully charged and still power the laptop from the AC adapter. The charging circuit will pass all the battery charge if it is fully charged.

    Kind regards

  • Dual Boot Vista and XP in separate hard drives?

    I currently installed on a hard drive in Vista and I have an extra which is 160 GB I want to install XP on so that I can dualboot both, is it possible?

    Remember that there is no partition in question here.

    The key which makes the task easier is to preformat the drive, assign a disk label (example: WinXP) and then launch the installation.

  • Problems with the Precision M4400 and the graphic card Nvidia quadro 770M

    I have a problem with my Precision M4400 and Nvidia Quadro 770 M. After I installed Windows 7 64 bit, I have problems with the graphics card. I get a blue screen or graphic errors. I tried several versions of the driver. In the Nvidia forum had this problem even more. Here, they told me that only a BIOS update for the graphics card to solve the problem. Update the BIOS, but I should refer by DELL. So my question is this problem with Dell is also known, and there is already an update of the BIOS to the Quadro 770 M?

    Hi all

    I have the solution by chance. I was looking for the latest drivers GeForce for Windows 7 x 64 and I read the accompanying note: http://fr.download.nvidia.com/Windows/337.88/337.88-win8-win7-notebook-release-notes.pdf
    On page 17, you can read the following note to fix: "[GeForce FX 770 M] [portable]: blocking of the blue screen occurs after Windows starts."

    Of course, GeForce FX 770 M does not exist (and never was), and it should be Quadro FX 770 M. I can bet that nVidia has corrected this famous BSOD problem in the wrong driver because always there is nothing about any "Quadro FX 770 M - fix" in the note accompanying the latest Quadro (340.52) driver.

    You try the GeForce driver above, but to install it, you may need to download an INF file modified with the addition of the ID of Quadro FX 770 M (= "NVIDIA_DEV.065C ="NVIDIA Quadro FX 770 M"). Try without the first modified INF file because the Quadro FX 770 M is listed as a compatible chip in the version of the driver GeForce 337.88 note...

    I'll try that, even though I am completely sastified with the latest driver for Quadro (feasible) (285.62) without disable Powermizer. I did not try the latest Quadro drivers again (to be honest).

    Late me know please.

  • problems with. ARW files and invigorating auto

    problems with. ARW files and invigorating auto

    I'll try to explain this, because this has happened in past and never found a way to solve, but I lived with it

    now that I have a Sony A7R the problem is more serious

    First I'm proud he realize the image in camera, I use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, as when I'm shooting at dusk. DRO desire to do HDR but in a single file, it lightens the dark colors. in my camera, I'm happy with the results

    but when I download on lightroom, they come out almost black.

    Let me explain

    Let's say I have import 100 images

    I'll double check my preferences and everything is turned OFF when you want to import options, there is no auto toning, nothing.

    import the images I see glimpses in miniature that looks very good.

    I double click on one to enlarge, we go out so grid view.

    for a short 1 or 2 seconds, I see the full image in all its glory but that lightroom is doing something funny, it darkens the image

    an as she inspects every image, it was a DRO picture, it's too dark.

    to make this clear, the image is perfect, as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds, lightroom for some reason some think should be corrected.

    How we prevent lightroom to do this, I want the image exactly as it is, why lightroom must apply a correction >?

    I think we should do something with the interpretation of the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.

    but here is what I get... until lightroom makes the change that I am able to testify the image exactly as he took and want unchanged...

    now, I have to edit each file or find a profile to which is added the work.

    any ideas how to prevent the ruin my lightroom images and just leave them as they were during the first time...

    There are 2 phases... it is when it imports initially and they look very well

    second are analysis each image and application of some type of toning that it darkens too.

    Thanks for the help

    Sorry, it's the yahoo email auto-reply message.

    I've now disabled

    thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera

    his only ARW. so my understanding is when I use the DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW lightroom this bed somehow the ARW.

    but he comes back and unfortunately no DRO setting.

    because I noticed that if I take a normal image in his dark raw mode but if I apply dro to it, it comes out more bright, yet when I d/l the camera image in lightroom, which is an ARW - there no jpg files. Lightroom decides to BUMBLE

    So actually there is no interest to use DRO because when I download lightroom deletes.

    is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as seen first.

    his right blade, image appears perfect... that lightroom do something, that bam, its ruin.

    What should I do to prevent ruin the image of lightroom? If it was good in the first place.

  • problem with the Finder - files and folders displaying incorrectly

    After acquiring a new iMac, I noticed a problem with the Finder - files and folders are displayed wrong (see table).

    This is what happens always after the files have been transferred from one folder to another. I was reminded of my days of using Mac OS in the 1980s when automatic setting of files was not so "automatic." I use Mac OS for decades and I don't remember the last time I had to think about GUI problems like that.

    Other problems in the graphical display of files and folders were introduced, such as when you have hundreds of files in a single folder, you end up deleting about 30 to 40 of them say in a particular section, and you end up with gaps of the ChartSpace where files used to be, that is the remaining files automatically rearrange themselves (fill in these gaps) - never. A week later, you open the folder, and the gap of GUI is still there.

    I decided to do a clean install of the operating system but nothing works.

    Is there some setting in Prefs I'm missing?

    Hi there highland99,

    Looks like your folder icons are not accommodating themselves automatically you plan to do. To me, this indicates that you have organize by the None value in the view menu. You can change the way files and folders are prepared automatically by clicking on view > reorganize by and selecting how you would like that fixed.
