Hello

Looks like something's happened on your HARD drive. Its defective, or maybe just the system partition is possibly corrupt.
Well, in the best case, you will need to reinstall the system.

If you n t have the recovery disc, you can order it here:

  • Error "Missing Operating System".

    Hi all. I'm trying to dual boot a 2013 end macbook pro with windows 10 and el capitan. I need to be able to run windows 10 to use some programs required by my University. I was actually able to configure my computer completely, so that it works on both partitions perfectly, but in a few days the windows partition seems to fail. This has happened three times now, and with each failure, I completely deleted the partition and started from scratch. The error I get seems to be completely random and occurs when I turned off my computer, turn it on and try to start the "Windows" partition It reads "_ Missing Operating System".

    To install Windows 10 first, I used the boot camp assistant tool to make a partition of 100 GB out of my 500 GB drive. I went through the process of boot camp and created a bootable usb key from the iso image windows 10. I booted from the USB and windows installed and everything worked perfectly. I had to delete the partition generated by the wizard boot camp and create a new space on my disk unallocated hard usb Boot because it would not me to install windows on the partition as boot camp originally created. I installed all the drivers through bootcamp tool which displayed once windows 10 has been installed and all was good. I did all the updates of Windows 10 through the parameters, and then I did all the app store updates. I installed applications base approximately 4; This includes chrome, iTunes and uTorrent.

    There seems to be no problem with my el capitan score whatsoever, and I was totally unable to find anything on the internet to help me with this problem. I chatted with support of microsoft and apple support. I was told that "it seems that the operating system on the Windows side is having a problem remaining installation and which is the origin of the problem" apple support. I was also told by microsoft that "maybe microsoft and apple cannot work together in a single machine :-) ».

    Any help at this point would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello

    I can't say with certainty what may be the problem but maybe HDD (hard drive) is a troublemaker.

    Start your laptop and press F2 to enter the BIOS settings. Check if the HARD drive is recognized and registered properly on the page. Load the settings by default using F10, then restart your laptop.

    The same thing happens again?

    I have bad news boyfriend. The message missing operating system means that the laptop can not find the operating system on the HARD drive. And do you know why the laptop can not find the OS (operating system)?
    Because the HARD drive is DEAD!

    I had the same behavior, 2 years ago. My 4 year old HARD drive was dead. It was an accident of the head and I lost all my files :(

    But fortunately, I created backups on CD so I could restore my photos and my mp3.

  • Missing operating systems after trying to install Ubuntu

    I have a dv6 7010 WE

    I used to have Windows 7 x 64. I tried to install a dual boot Ubuntu, but if it worked I would not write this.

    I tried to install Ubuntu with a live CD. I've been running Ubuntu, I thought it was over install and I restarted the computer. When he came back he said "Missing Operating System". The live CD was not in when he did this, and then I put it back on and restarted and he returned to Ubuntu and offered to install again. I didn't install it and I restarted just once again (error). Yet once he came with "Missing Operating System". I restarted again, but press the ESC key and went to the start menu. I've sailed around, trying to make a boot recovery and try to do a system restore, but none of them worked.

    Now when I put the Ubuntu CD in I don't you Ubuntu, but the same screen lack of operating system

    I tried to get a download of Windows 7 and reinstall it on another drive, but I didn't do well do things and don't want to take the risk even once.

    I cannot enter in a command window and can do stuff with it, but I have no idea what to do at this point.

    I'm stuck and I really really need help. I really really want to buy a new computer. My computer did not come with a Windows 7 installation disc.

    Help please.

    Please do not answer. I just ordered recovery through Staples discs.

    To anyone else reading this, I suggest you just buy the recovery disc for your computer.

  • "Error loading operating system" after windows update

    I have an ASUS EeePc netbook model: 1005PEB. Last night before going to bed, I stopped the netbook and it has begun to install and configure windows was last updated. I left on the office do its thing and went to bed. This morning, I got the netbook and it went out of the car and it turned on while I was about to leave the House (before ask you, no I ' was not flying). He started installing all the updates that it had installed the night before. It has gotten to the point where it installed the last element and hung up there. I leave a this screen for 45 minutes and nothing has changed. I went against my better judgment and off the netbook. When I went immediately to turn it back on all I get is "error loading operating system". I tried to use F8 to try to start it in safe mode and I can always access the BIOS. How do I get this service still? I don't have really any data here, I'm too preoccupied. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

  • Error loading operating system message is displayed after the partial installation of Windows XP

    Hello all, I was doing a clean install of Windows XP from the CD on my desktop PC.  I had reached the point where I had deleted the existing system partition and created a new system partition and had begun to load data from system to system on the CD when I accidentally stop the surge protector, shutting off the power to the computer, the screen of the monitor, etc.  After that I restored power, I turned on the PC without the XP installation CD in the CD/DVD drive.  The system posted successfully and start the CD line appeared IMMEDIATELY followed by the message "error loading operating system" on a new line.  I tried to start with the installation of XP in the drive disc, as well as with the "Ultimate Boot CD" in the player - the "Error loading operating system" message appeared in both cases.  Thanks for any help you can provide!

    The desktop PC has had a full legal work Windows XP with SP3, but I chose to reinstall from scratch, because I had problems with corrupted data in the Zone Alarm and card ATI graphics card software that caused random outages, lead to situations of re - start.  I couldn't fix the files for these 2 applications that I had this desktop PC in stock for more than 18 months and I couldn't remember the administrator password I had used.

    Once more, these error messages tell me you dΘmarrez the hard disk and no CD-ROM drive.  The message "NTLDR is missing" is read the boot sector, on most of the installations of Windows, the boot sector is usually the absolute sector 63 on the disc, using DiskProbe you will see the text of the message to the given sector.

    Your drive is perhaps at fault... or it may be absolutely nothing wrong with it!  You may need to press a key to boot from the CD, often you see a message like «Press any key to boot from CD...» "or some thing in this sense, maybe you're not a touch and the BIOS ignores the boot from CD-ROM and goes to the next boot device (hard drive).

    Hi Gary,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question.

    According to the description, you have problems with the computer not start.

    This problem can occur because of a hardware problem.

    Proceed as from the link below and check if that helps.

    "Operating system not found" or the "Missing operating system" error message when you start your Windows XP-based computer

    Warning: Be careful when you change the settings of the BIOS (Basic Input Output System). The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly. BIOS update should be made only if necessary (to solve a compatibility problem, for example). It can be a complicated process, and if an error occurs, your computer could be rendered inoperative. Be sure to observe the instructions of the manufacturer.

    Meet us if you face problems with computer not start or any other issue of Windows, and we would be happy to help you.

    Good day!
