Start of message network AMD during installation of operating system prompted

Hello

I am trying to install a guest operating system in Vmware Workstation with an ISO of Windows XP SP3, I got MSDN subscriptions.

Configure the virtual machine using the new Machine virtual Wizard of VMWare Workstation (I choose the option "Typical") and "install the operating system later. After the initial installation, I point the device CD/DVD virtual machine for the ISO of Windows XP SP3 file on my hard drive.

My Version of VMWare Workstation is: 7.1.0 build 261024

Host operating system is: Windows 7 Ultimate

Regarding the CD/DVD device:

"Connect at power on" is already selected.

Device type is: IDE 1:0 CD/DVD (IDE)

I checked the file type of the ISO file I got from MSDN and it is indeed an ISO as shown below:

en_windows_xp_service_pack_3_x86_cd_x14 - 60489.iso: # data filesystem ISO 9660 CD-ROM "GRTMUPD_EN".

When I start the virtual machine, I press F2 and go into the BIOS. Change the boot order by moving the CD/DVD-ROM option to the top of the list in the boot order. Press F10 (to save changes to configuration of startup and exit). However, even after this, the VM tries to boot from the network boot device. I have attached the screenshot of the message that I get for the network boot.

Why the VM starts not using ISO that I mentioned the Virtual Machine CD/DVD device to file?

Please note that I don't have any physical device CD/DVD in my computer. However, I don't think that should have an impact on it because VMWare Workstation will virtualize for the Virtual Machine's CD/DVD-ROM material, even if the physical machine (host) does not have a CD/DVD ROM.

I used the procedure above to correctly install the Windows XP SP3 guest OS in the past, but now, it doesn't seem to work. It seems that booting from CD/DVD-ROM does not work and it goes to the default startup network every time. Please help me solve this problem.

Thank you.

Hi NeonFlash,

You probably have a disk that contains just to Service Pack 3, for the installation of the Service Pack on top of an existing instance of Windows XP.

Search for download separately from Windows XP with Service Pack 3 on MSDN and download this one.

See you soon,.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - stops during installation of operating system

    Hi all
    I have a Satellite pro 4600 that my son bought his first Fixer of computer.

    The laptop comes with the hard drive erased. The problem he is trying to install Windows 2000, the laptop comes with OEM.

    The computer starts up to the windows disk and loads all the files, but when the Windows installation starts the computer stops.

    We are trying to install the power adapter plugged in, and it seems that all the lights are either now or at least works.
    This laptop was announced as work, but with no OS installed. As this is the first that he bought, we have no spare parts to swap around.

    Guidance on what would be the most likely problem, or a good place to start looking would be greatly appreciated!

    First, I would try to clean the laptop with a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans. You can get in at a computer retailer.

    After that, an error has occurred (in a black console window):

    That's happened? I don't understand what is the reason for this problem. I was reinstall another OS (the drive recovery too) often earlier and everything was OK.

    I have an AMD Phenom II X processor 4 965 3.40 GHz on my pc with 8 GB of RAM. I installed vmware workstation 8 on it. I want to create a vmware view lab environment.

    According to the newspaper, the choice of 'Virtualiser VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/IVR' should not be available in the settings of the virtual machine to the virtual machine.  Note that this box is different from the drop-down list "preferred method".

    Virtualized EPT-x/VT or AMD-V/IVR is a new feature introduced with Workstation 8.0 and requires the latest virtual material.  First of all, upgrade your VM ESXi virtual material by going to VM-> manage-> change hardware compatibility and select compatibility with "Workstation 8.0."  Then, change the settings of the virtual machine, click the processors tab and check the box 'Virtualiser VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/IVR.'

    This means that your machine does not meet the requirements of system for InDesign.  Check the system requirements for InDesign against those of your machine to see where your machine is delivered in default.

  • Installation of operating system problem

    I installed windows 8 via a usb port... After it was installed, it took too much time then I restarted the system... But after that, nothing has worked... First, he showed that no operating system has been found... Then you are prompted to restart the system and reinstall windows... And it kept saying... If I remove the USB he invites me to restart and nothing else works... pressing f10 or shift + f10 is not even open the prompt... and if I insert the usb key I get the BOOTMGR missing... Press ctrl + alt + delete to restart... I tried evrything... f2, f12, f8 or f6... nothing happened... How to fix this... I can't even not the bios or Setup... even to the registry editor...

    Power the system down, it turns the power off and wait 10 to 20 minutes.

    Plug it in again after 20 minutes and start the thumb drive and make a custom installation:

    Boot from the Windows 8 USB key
    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 8 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  • Satellite M200 - first start interrupted, now it will not charge the operating system

    Brand new laptop.
    Initial commissioning where the operating system is loaded was interrupted and now when I try to restart the entire process just to get a message indicating that windows has been interrupted and restart before installing.
    However after restart "the same message reappears and I'm going round and round in circles. Any ideas please.

    I don't know what the problem is here, but I recommend you use the supplied recovery DVD and reinstall the OS. After 25 minutes only you will be able to start the clean operating system preinstalled.
