• "The BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI-compatible" Stop: 0X000000A5.

  BSOD

  My home computer is running running windows xp for about 6 years... everything was OK until yesterday when I tried to turn it on. First it started as it does if she didn't close properly and got stuck in the loop of reboot that I did what I read on the forum... tapping F8 key and disabled the auto restart and I got the BSOD.

  It is said... the BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI-compatible... I do not understand the BIOS or ACPI

  The error message says:

  STOP: 0X000000A5 (0 X 00000011, 0 X 00000006, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)

  He also tells me to go to a website of material for a BIOS updated... but I do not understand what to download.

  Can someone please help?

  Hello mrtrytofixit,

  Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how it is important to be able to rely on public services provides your Mac and I want to help you get things working again. With troubleshooting, you have already done, it seems that it is a systemic problem.

  From there, what I recommend is reinstall OS X El Capitan using OS X Recovery on your Mac. It should not remove or erasure of your data, but it is recommended that you make backup before you do incase of an emergency.

• Bluetooth doesn't work does not boot camp

  I can not connect any device to mbp via bluetooth. I use windows via boot camp 10. I also installed the boot camp support software.

• Boot Camp: This disc seems to have been divided by another utility. It must be erased before installing Windows.

  I have a SATA Western Digital to 6 TB drive on my Mac Pro 2012.  I thought "what better place to put a bootcamp partition?  But when I went to use the Boot Camp Assistant, I was greeted with this:

  Boot Camp: This disc seems to have been divided by another utility. It must be erased before installing Windows.

  

  I thought ' OK - I'll delete data... Use utility disk to erase the disk completely, and then try again.  After a few hours, I used... completely partitioned disk utility disk and tried again.

  Same message.

  It seems that for some reason I can erase completely and use the entire disk for Windows (blah) or should I use another drive or not Boot Camp at all.  Is there a problem with the size of the hard drive Boot Camp can support?  Any advice?

  Hello ElPapa,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  I understand that you want to put a Boot Camp partition on your Western Digital HD connected to your Mac Pro. What is your boot drive? If this isn't the case, it could be part of your problem. According to the following article on installing Microsoft Windows using Boot Camp, it is said that you need "at least 55 GB of free disk space on your startup disk".

  If you install it on your boot drive and still get this message, take a look at this article: Boot Camp: alert message Partition when you use Boot Camp Assistant

• Windows Boot Camp icon shows not boot disk

  Hello guys!

  I just installed Windows 7 Pro 64-bit edition. I used the wizard Bootcamp, and everything seems to have been installed correctly. I did not use any Wizard part 3rd NTFS to format the partition. I just followed the steps with the Bootcamp assistant. When I'm on Windows, I can easily switch from Win to Mac OS with Boot Camp assistant. However, if you use Mac OS, the icon for windows is absent in the startup disk. There is only the Mac OS disk. I can only switch to windows if I restart my computer and click on the option. Is it possible for the Windows Boot Camp icon appears in the Start Option? I use a Macbook Pro retina, 13-inch, late 2013, running on a Mac OS X El captain, version 10.11.5. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

  Hi all

  Let me start of by saying I am new to Apple computers and I mainly used Windows or Linux operating systems.  Let me describe the problem.

  One of my friends asked me to install Windows on their mac, after running Boot Camp by selecting my ISO, and allocation of 32 gigabytes for the Windows partition, it started downloading the required software.  After completing download he began to partition the hard drive, about 15 to 30 seconds in partitioning computer crashed.  When I turned the computer on the partition was gone and the usable space was smaller.  After looking around on the forms, I found a solution using the command:

  diskutil repairDisk disk0

  It restored the main partition to its original size.  I've not run Boot Camp once again because I'm afraid it will crash everything simply.  I found the error report and I'll it paste it here:

• boot camp and windows 10

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows with Boot Camp Assistant. I'm exactly as shown in all directions. I have a 2012 end iMac 21.5 ". It has a 1 terabyte internal hard drive. I've updated to the latest version of Mac OS x. I downloaded a legal Windows 10 professional image, although it seems not matter since I can't install it. Anyway. I followed all the instructions of the Boot Camp Assistant. I use an external hard drive for WININSTALL. Wizard Boot Camp works very well until it's time to create the partition on the hard disk called Bootcamp. It creates the partition, but does not do anything in this partition. Wizard Boot Camp attempts to boot from the new partition, but obviosly, there is nothing there. I tried to start the WININSTALL disc, who starts and wants to install Windows 10, but he cannot or will not be installed on the Bootcamp partition. You know what says the error message, because others have told you what he said, so I won't repeat. Obviously, Boot Camp Assistant does not use GPT, but rather of MBR to create the Bootcamp partition. I have tried many, many, many times to use Boot Camp Assistant to install 10 Windows internal hard disk, but each time he did exactly the same thing. I guess I'm crazy for trying to do the same thing so many times. Of course, there is something wrong with my iMac, because it seems that others are able to install Windows 10 on their iMac. So, would someone please tell me how to fix the problem so that I can install 10 Windows internal hard disk from the iMac?

  You need a USB2 Flash 8 + GB drive. You may use an external HARD disk, it is still problematic.

  It creates the partition, but does not do anything in this partition.

  BCA is not supposed to, until the Windows Installer starts and copies the files to the internal drive to put Windows on the internal drive. WININSTALL contains all the files needed to install Windows.

  EFI boot needs a GPT disk, the BIOS legacy mode needs a hybrid MBR (collection on a GPT disk standard). Your Mac 2012 preUEFI supports only the MBR properly. EFI boot not work correctly and cause driver problems.

  Run the wizard of BC and delete the current partition. Disconnect the external storage, perform the following two procedures

  Run the BCA and use a flashdrive USB2 (not a HARD drive). The USB key will be erased/formatted. The content of the ISO or Windows 10 DVD will be copied on this flash drive with drivers Apple supporting restart environment that supports your keyboard and mouse and display. Do not interrupt the installation in any way using the Alt/Option key.

• Boot Camp - boot disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition

  Hello

  Would really appreciate some help on this!

  I tried to install Windows 7 on my iMac 2015 but during the installation of windows it guests that the partition must be formatted in a different way.

  Now when I try to use Boot Camp once again, I get this message:

  The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition.

  The startup disk must be formatted in a single volume in Mac OS extended (journaled) or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows.

  The problem is that I can't erase the Boot Camp Partition in any way using disk utility.

  The Macs listed to install Windows 7 and previous versions on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple supported support W7. 2015 macs don't support W7.

  The only supported method to remove Windows from a Fusion using Mac drive is Boot Camp: Remove Windows from your Mac . Do not use disk utility.

  You seem to have tried a deletion of THE (not deleting a partition), at least once. Your BC partition is now a HFS partition. Convert it back into a FAT32 partition on THE and then try to remove it by using the link provided.

  If you are unable to remove using BCA, then use the steps of the Re: doesn't have windows via bootcamp 8.1 installation .

• Questions for Boot Camp

  Question 1. What I need to partition the hard drive on my mac or can I have an external hard drive that windows can install on.

  Question 2. If question you will Yes is a power use the external hard drive just for windows, they are installing windows on it. and not to touch the internal hard drive of the Mac at all and only just leave with macOS XXXX

  Question 3. When you install the windows ISO file will take me a license key / activation code?

  Thanks in advance for comments

  Technically, Windows installation on an external drive is not supported by Apple or Bootcamp. However, there are ways around this, but you have to find yourself, and there is no apple support for facilities that made this way.

  Partitioning the internal hard disk will make the side independent Mac of the side Windows.

  Yes.  Windows will require a valid license purchased from Microsoft key.

• Internal displacement of Boot Camp on an external disk to disk

  I have a MBP with OS 10.6.6 2.66 and have a partition to Boot Camp 250 GB current where I am running W7 64 bit and do so very well for a long time - thanks Fusion!  I would like to make the transition to an implementation of virtual machine all I need is more native starting capability in Windows.  Due to the size of my HD (500 GB to Mac and the other half partitioned for Boot Camp as described).  I don't have enough disk space to perform the conversion directly on my internal HD.  I downloaded the execution mode of the conversion on an external drive.  Oonce I did that and can run the new virtual machine on the external hard drive, I would like to move while VM back into my internal HD (after of course remove the Boot Camp Partition.  So here are my questions:

  1. How can I move a virtual machine to an external drive on my internal HD?

  2. what impact this process will have on my current Windows authorization?

  3. I guess I simply launch Boot Camp assistant to delete this partition before moving the virtual machine on my internal HD.  Is this correct?

  Thanks for any help and sorry if this has already been answered somewhere.  I tried searching but have not imagined the exact scenario I describe, and it's all the mission critical something for me.

  When VMware Fusion creates a Virtual Machine is stores the various files the compromise of the Virtual Machine in a Package of Document which is really nothing more then a regular directory or a file with the extension .vmwarevm and because this extension is registered with Launch Services, Mac OS X manages this directory/folder or Package of Document in a special way compared to a directory/file without extension.  BTW the .vmwarevm extension is not absolutely necessary, and as long as the files that make up the Virtual Machine exists and file .vmx (virtual machine configuration) knows where the files (VHD) of hard then the Virtual Machine works.  In other words, a Virtual Machine without any snapshots require only the hard files and .vmx file to start and then additional files/folders are created in the directory/folder that contains or the Document Package necessary as changes in configuration of the Virtual Machine is running.

  When you use Paragon go virtual to create the VM in an appropriately named folder, you need to create in advance it will contain any file .vmx (virtual machine configuration) and hard (VHD) files and if you want after editing with TextEdit the .vmx file add the parameters mentioned above you can then add the extension of .vmwarevm it will be normal by default which creates of VMware Fusion.

  Not Boot Camp virtual machine based on the default for a normal file location, run as a Virtual Machine, the virtual computers folder located in the folder Documents in your Home folder, however, you can put the Virtual Machine no matter where you have fully read & write access.  Personally I never use the default location and put all my virtual machines in the virtual computers folder to the root of the Macintosh HD or the root of any drive external FireWire I use.  I also exclude this folder from Time Machine never leave my Virtual Machines be backed up by Time Machine, since it is a fact that Time Machine is not 100% reliable backing up/restoring VMS in all circumstances.  Also back up Virtual Machines via Time Machine of disk/time intensive and wastes a lot of space for something that may be corrupted and worthless time to restore it.

  My method is to always have all the user data fully backed up in order to go to any computer, I chose and the access and the use of my data is not required to keep backup of Virtual Machines in their entirety and instead keep a copy Virgin at the time of build or controlled versions updated since the original version as it deems necessary.  Yes I might have to run a few updates and install an app or two, but in my opinion, keeping user data in a State that is accessible from any computer, I chose and the ability to recover quickly if / when necessary with a clean Virtual Machine the best way forward.  I even keep a set of scripts with a few clicks and a few seconds, make changes to the OS settings and or applications so the environment is to my taste and not the default values.  My own version of files and the Transfer Wizard settings if you and use on physical and Virtual Machines.

• Resized Partition Boot Camp, is no longer work

  I used the Tune Camp to resize my Boot Camp partition, which worked very well.  I can boot into Mac or my Boot camp.  But when I tried to load my partition Boot Camp in Fusion, I got an error message stating that I had to "remove my hard drive and then add it back."

  So, I went into the settings of for my Boot Camp in merging partition and removed my hard drive.

  But now I can not add it again.  I do not know how to proceed, and Fusion does not start from my Boot Camp Partition not more because he does not see any hard drive.

  Can anyone help with this?  Or, can anyone describe how can I say merge to re - install my partition Boot Camp, or re - initialize somehow?

  The following has not been updated for Fusion 3, but is still applicable in what to do as much as to try to correct the situation.  Because you used a third-party tool 3rd you can have inconsistent information between GPT and MBR and could require techniques advances in recovery of preforms however try which is below first.

  Note: These senses are different which have already been posted so read and follow through... Note: These steps assume that you have a single Apple to default installation of Windows on a single Boot Camp partition and Boot Camp of VMware Fusion single default partition Machine virtual (without a snapshot *) and if you have changed the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine to add additional hard disks to be virtual or RAW disk then do not use these instructions unless you backup the Boot Camp partition the Machine package virtual first. * Also note that Fusion 2.0.0 may accidentally have a snapshot with the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine and it should not have, then you should check to ensure that the condition does not exist as well. (With merger closed if the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine package is over 1 MB in size, then you might have a snapshot in place and do not continue with these instructions.)

  ===

  1. If the merger is open, close it.

  2. in a Terminal (/ Applications/Utilities/Terminal) copy and paste command, as the following and then press Enter and it will delete the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine of the metadata and the Virtual Machine to help.

  Note: This does not affect the Boot Camp partition install windows in that it does not remove it.  Also be sure you copy all the command line below, as well as, "RM" at the beginning of the ' (quote) after the s in the Machines. "

• The two OSX/FAT partition in disk - which uses a Boot Camp?

  Hello

  I have an external drive with both OS X extended and FAT partition to which I am ready to use it to install Windows using Boot Camp. The problem is that I have important data in OS X partition and I was wondering if I use this specific hard disk, Boot Camp use, format and writing Windows only in the FAT partition or formats the disc?

  PS. I don't have USB extra flash available

  You will need to re - think that BootCamp Windows installations do not work on an external drive
