  Hello SteveO_1968,

  To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
  2. Press a key when you are prompted.
  3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
  4. Click repair your computer.
  5. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
  6. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.
  7. Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

  Note To start the computer from the Windows Vista DVD, the computer must be configured to start from the DVD drive. For more information on the configuration of the computer to start from the DVD drive, see the documentation provided with your computer or contact the computer manufacturer.

  Bootrec.exe options

  The Bootrec.exe tool supports the following options. Use the option that suits your situation.

  Note If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup problem, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again. In doing so, you ensure that the BCD is completely rebuilt. To do this, type the following commands at the command prompt Windows RE:

  • bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup
  • c:
  • Boot CD
  • BCD attrib s h - r
  • Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old
  • Bootrec /RebuildBcd

  / FixMbr

  The /FixMbr option writes a MBR compatible Windows Vista on the system partition. This option does not overwrite the existing partition table. Use this option when you need to solve problems of corruption of MBR, or when you need to remove the non-standard code from the MBR.

  / FixBoot

  The /FixBoot option writes a new boot sector on the system partition by using a boot sector that is compatible with Windows Vista. Use this option if one of the following conditions is met:

  • The boot sector has been replaced by a non-standard Windows Vista boot sector.
  • The boot sector is damaged.
  • An earlier Windows operating system has been installed after the installation of Windows Vista. In this scenario, the computer starts by using Windows NT Loader (NTLDR) instead of Windows Boot Manager (Bootmgr.exe).

  / ScanOs

  The /ScanOs option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista. In addition, this option displays the entries that are currently not in the BCD store. Use this option when there are installations of Windows Vista which is not in the Boot Manager menu.

  / RebuildBcd

  The /RebuildBcd option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista. In addition, this option allows you to select the facilities you want to add to the BCD store. Use this option when you need to completely rebuild the BCD.

• HP 8660 hard crash when you try to set up the network

  So, the strangest thing happened to my all-in-One printer, apparently without me even not touching.

  We have changed our ISP and had to spend our routers/wireless modems in our apartment. It is - of course - our printer drop the connection to the network - no surprise.

  So the big weird thing is, when I now try to establish a connection to our new network, our hardcrashes printer and needs a reboot (ie. on / turn off the) to the same function again.

  When it crashes I get a brief error message VERY (less than one second - white letters on a BSOD background), after which all the LED lights on the printer starts flashing and the screen tells me that the printer must be powered on/off voltage.

  The code (I tried to catch in the less-than-per-second duration is shown) is: B8409490

  When the printer is connected by wire (LAN), everything works like a charm. Using the copy function works fine as well. But since a cable solution is exactly what we were looking for, any input as to what the problem could be is greatly appreciated!

  PS:

  I tried to reset the settings and the use of the factory through the hidden «menu factory» reset Problem persists.

  Hi Diojr,

  Thanks for your reply and information!

  I'm sorry to see that you receive the error message when you try to connect to your network. I see the wired connection works fine. I noticed that you have already tried a factory reset and the same problem persists.

  If you haven't already done so, I suggest updating the firmware, and then try to reconnect to your network (wireless).

  Please let me know how it works for you!

  Click this link for downloading the Firmware update, select first your operating system and then download:

  Good luck

• Cannot access Windows 7 PC through the network, but Windows 7 PC can access XP PC

  When you try to set up the folder sharing for 2 computers, his feel like I can go only in one direction.
  I have a computer that is running Windows 7, and the other is Windows XP. They are both connected by a router with ethernet cables.
  I can access shared files and folders on the XP computer, but when I try to access the Windows 7 PC it gives an error message
   
  "Logon failure: user account restriction." The possible reasons are blank passwords not allowed, restrictions of time or a logon policy"
  When I go to 'Network' on my XP computer, I can see the name of the other, I just can't access.

  The two computers are not protected by Word and have only a single user.

• Impossible to install the new printer, Pixma MG5320 without error "setting up the network printer down.

  I have a new all-in-one Canon Pixma MG5320. I am unable to get the installer to finish with on "setting up the network printer down." Despite numerous attempts to:

  (1) download the driver on the internet instead of the installation CD.

  2) with the help of msconfig with selective startup and disabled all programs except Microsoft.

  (3) creates the new administrator account and returned through it all.

  (4) turned off firewall and anti-virus

  The error is compatible and I never have the unit set up under devices and printers. The installation is carried out without any errors marked and you will see the error if you get into the details of setting up and get him. The computer sees the printer when it finds and he answers. The printer and the router, both seem to be communicating correctly. Repair auto and troubleshooting programs I ran as fix - it do not detect errors. The printer works fine through a USB cable. I don't want to continue to use USB because that's why I wanted to go wireless. I'm sure that I forget some of the things I went through in my attempts to get this working. Anyone with any ideas or know what's going on please help.
  Tech of Cannon was very knowledgeable and says he sees this once a month. He believes that some program interferes with the installation process. I do thanks in advance. Nice day.

• Trying to set up a network with windows 7 Home premium

  I'm trying to set up a network on windows 7 Home premium, but could not find this secpol.msc. I read the posts on the guy with vista home premium and similar problems. I tried the advice given to him:

  Open regedit and locate the key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contrl\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel

  Set this value to 1 (is default on 3) "send LM and NTLM".
  See the Q823659 knowledge base 
  

  I got in the case of the LSA and found no LmCompatibiltyLevel, he was not in the file or it contained a folder with that name.

  I also read a post from someone about windows 7 as follows:

  On Windows 7 Home Premium, secpol.msc or this registry key is set.

  However if you add a new key named LmCompatibilityLevel DWORD value at the specified location and the value of '1' it seems to work to allow
  "Use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated".

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel

  But my problem I do not know what he meant by 'DWORD '.

  If someone could help with this problem, it would be great.

• What is the difference between Windows 7.x86chk.symbol.msi and Windows 7.x86fre.symbol.msi?

  What is the difference between windows 7. x86chk.symbol.msi and windows 7. x86FRE.symbol.msi

  Hello

  Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
  If my assumption is correct, you are looking for which file to download service pack update.
  Worry not choose files. Download the .iso to the update file, either burn it or mount or extract it and install. These files are called the symbol files. They differ in the language, for example. frequency refers to the French version. They are used to debug the Service Pack and are not really necessary unless you start to run into problems and try to find solutions on your own.

• I've set up the virtual machine in win 7 Ultimate and put some data. Now when I try to connect it asks password and does not accept any password.

  Default password Machine virtual XP Mode

  I've set up the virtual machine in win 7 Ultimate and put some data. Now when I try to connect it asks password and does not accept any password. Please giveme the default password

  If you're talking about XP Mode the default password is XPMUser.  In general you can not use Windows without a password in Windows Virtual PC that you can with Virtual PC 2007 and before.  XPMUser is used only with the XP Mode virtual machine.  All other virtual machines requires a user created password.  If you have changed the password in XP Mode and forgotten, then you have to start over.

  Windows Virtual PC is based on virtual server rather than VPC and all virtual machines need a password.  If necessary, uninstall the integration features, start the virtual machine and create a password for the admin user.  Restart the virtual machine, and then reinstall the integration features.  You will not be able to access a virtual machine created by the user that has no password, while the integration features are installed.  Once you have everything right, that a virtual machine will not be asked a password if you are the admin user in Windows 7.
