Vista Boot Camp partition does not start

I have been using Fusion to open my Boot Camp with Vista Ultimate installed partition.  It worked fine for months.  Suddenly, I get a windows Boot Manager error.  The message says that some required files missing.  Here's the weird: I can open the Visa using Boot Camp partition.

Any ideas?

Note: These steps assume that you have a default Apple installation of Windows and a VMware Fusion Boot Camp Virtual Machine default partition and if you changed the Boot Camp partition the 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 Virtual Machine package first.

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 remove the Boot Camp Virtual Machine meta-data partition. Note: This does not affect the Boot Camp partition to install Windows. Also make sure that you copy the entire command below "rm" line at the beginning of the ' (quote) after the p in the Camp. "

RM - dfr "/Users/$ the specified item was not found./Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines / Boot Camp."

3. start Fusion (/ Applications/VMware Fusion.app) and select the Boot Camp partition on the library of the Virtual Machine window, and then click the run button.

Notes: Then, an authentication dialog box appears. "VMware Fusion requires that you type your password." Enter your name and password, and then click OK. (It is necessary to remove the Boot Camp for the merge partition to access it directly).

Then, we should see a Boot Camp partition message stating "VMware Fusion prepares your Boot Camp partition to run as a virtual machine. This may take a few minutes. This occurs once. »

When the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine starts for the first time after this VMware Tools may want or will install/update and restart the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine.

  • Boot Camp Assistant does not start the installer

    Hi all -

    I'm trying to install Windows 8.1 or 10 Pro on my mid 2015 Macbook Pro. I made this countless times on before Mac computers, including my 2013 previous Macbook Pro without problem. However this laptop seems to have problems during the process. Or I do something wrong and don't understand how it works now.

    I started Boot Camp Assistant, walking through the steps, divide the disk, etc. He began the restart process, then it restarted,... then I was back to my Mac. There was no indication that he was still something, but I let it sit for a few minutes. When I was confident it would do nothing, I decided to restart and hold down the 'Option' key on startup to select the Windows disk...

    OK just thought of this, but I will continue to write this question: Boot Camp Assistant request now an ISO standard. I still remember having to do this from a USB or CD player. I hold down the 'Option' and select the DRIVE or a CD drive but since I do not have either, I can't select it. I thought it was a problem in which nothing appeared on the screen except Macintosh HD.

    So I guess that the problem comes from my ISO file? I made them using the instructions from Apple of physical disks (Windows 7 and 8.1, but my laptop does not support 7). I will try to download Windows 10 Microsoft site, according to Apple.

    Anyway, I looked in the disk utility and found that BOOTCAMP was created successfully. I used Boot Camp Assistant to delete the partition and to combine the disc again. I then tried the whole process, once again, but with the same results.

    Still, I will try with a new ISO directly from Microsoft...

    Thanks for any input in advance.

    1. 2015 macs do not use a cable USB or CD/DVD to install Windows.

    2 creates a partition on the internal drive called OSXRESERVED and puts the content of the ISO and the drivers of BC on this 8 GB partition and boot from it.

    3. Please see https://help.apple.com/bootcamp/assistant/6.0/ for more details.

  • Windows Vista Basic, 32 bit, does not start up-will start in safe mode

    My computer fails to start. This problem came about 2 weeks ago when I rebooted after an update for McAfee Total protection requiring a reboot. But I don't know if that is why the computer not boot not correctly.
    After a lot of testing to the Startup Repair and shut down the pc and start it again, it starts to open a session for users. But after that I restarted again in this State, the problem persists.
    There is no error codes or messages, it just does not start. There is no virus infection (I hope). While the pc is booting, I also connected to Admin and checked if there were any problems found. But no other problem than a problem with Teredo Tunneling Pseudo - Interface. I solved this problem.
    So after all these checks, I restarted again, and it will not start again.
    It starts in Mode safe with no problems, and I have restored the pc a couple of times, but no use.

    Y at - it a fix for this?
    Any help will be very appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hello RubeenaY.

    After looking on this thread. the most remarkable thing I've seen, is that we are able to boot mode safe without problem. Typically, this means that we cannot start because a driver, service, or application takes over at startup which prevents our normal operation.

    I recommend you to perform a clean boot, as they did in the previous post.

  • error 0xC0000225, recovery partition does not start

    Hello

    I have a HP dv7 with Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit.

    A few months ago, I did a factory restore, the recovery partition start (I have no recovery disks). After that, I thought to divide my C: partition where Windows is installed, and I did it with Windows disk management.

    So my new scores were: C: D: with recovery, OS, E: HP_Tools and g.: the new partition.

    A few days ago the sistem ran very hard, so I thought I do another factory restore from the recovery partition. When I rebooted and you press F11, I got the "0xc0000225 error".

    I have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit bootable drive and I tried Startup Repair tool and other repairs of sistem, checks HDD, but everything seems to be ok.

    I reinstalled the operating system, from the disk bootable on C: (OS starts and works well) and let the other partitions as they were... but it seems that the recovery partition still does not start if I can do a restore from the factory with all the drivers and utilities, as they were at the beginning.

    Any ideas on how I can do?

    Thank you!

    It seemed that it there was not much I could do about this problem. My disk is dynamic, there is no Recovery Manager from the Start Menu, there has not been any creation of HP with HP folder recovery support. I managed somehow to make a repair disk, I tried it but no results, the error kept popping out every time.

    I inserted the Windows 7 disc to try to delete all partitions, including the recovery and HP-tools and do a Windows Installer Cleanup, but the Format, New and Delete buttons are inactive.

    I did some scans disk and memory tests, everything was ok... I started with a disc of Hiren and accesed the HARD drive with a program based on linux and so I managed to delete the partitions.

    After I installed a new copy of Windows 7 to work with my SN and everything was ok. Unfortunately I lost partitions recovery and HP-tools, but at least it works well again.

    Thanks for your all your support.

  • Unable to access the Vista Boot Camp partition.

    I've got Snow Leopard 10.6.2 on an iMac Intel Core 2 Duo 3.06 GHz with 4 GB of ram.  My version of Fusion is 2.0.6.  Vista Home Premium (32-bit, of course) is upgraded to SP2.  All I am able to do is a blue screen of death when I try to access my Boot Camp by merge partition.  This senario has never worked for me.  I just use Fusion to access another copy of Windows that I designated merger.  The exact code is available on the attached screenshot.  I am able to access my Boot Camp partition without problems on a restart.  I looked for a specific answer to my problem with no luck.  The only thing I've tried so far is increase the default 512 MB available ram (I think) to about 2 GB.  Please help me to solve my problem.

  • Mavericks on external partition does not start

    Hello

    I'm trying to implement the Mavericks on a partition on my external hard drive. Found several good guides on how but can't seem to boot from it.

    I created a Mavericks install USB and started one. I deleted the partition (guid partition map and extended journaled) where I wanted to install the Mavericks ran through the facility and said it will re-start automatically that it did.

    However it is started on my internal drive with OS X 10.11.4.

    The partition where the Mavericks has been installed is displayed in the Finder.

    The partition where the Mavericks has been installed is displayed as a virtual disk in system preferences, but when Source selected to restart, but after rebooting, it does not appear.

    When I hold the ket Option initially upwards, it does not seem to me to choose.

    I retried with 'createinstallmedia' https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372 and Diskmaker, but the same results.

    How can I solve why it why it seems installed, but is not a bootable disk?

    Thanks for any advice.

    Also...

    I use a partition of 100 GB of the Mavericks on a backup drive Seagate to Office for Mac 4.

  • volmgrx.sys damaged during vista sp2 upgrade pc does not start

    I had this problem after downloading and installing SP2. Well actually the never finished SP2 update correctly because this problem has occurred. To be precise:
    1 - Download SP2 via windows Update and starts the installation.
    2 - installation routine was told he needed to restart to complete update so I clicked on restart
    3 - PC went in "installation of updates do not turn off" or something else
    4 - PC restarted, but could not start
    5 - went to Startup Repair where it could not solve the problem, but it has identified as being "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\volmgrx.sys boot critical file is corrupt.

    That this problem had never occurred before that I can only assume that it was caused by a problem during the SP2 update. The problem is that I now have no way of fixing.

    -The PC will not boot in Vista
    -Startup Repair cannot fix the problem
    -The manufacturer system restore function seems to have been boosted by the problem of too and will not work
    -Booting from a recovery DVDs only gives options of startup repair (which does not solve the problem) or a clean install, I don't want to have to do.
    -I can not replace the corrupted version of the file with a known good because it is protected (access denied) and I have no way to change the attributes of protection to allow it to be removed, or replaced.

    Can someone please tell me how I can fix this apparently simple problem and avoid having to trash the system and rebuild it?

  • Recovery partition does not start!

    Hello dear forum participants!

    I have computer hp pavilion dv6 laptop, recently I reinstalled original OS (win7 home 64 bit that comes with the laptop) to win7 Home premium.

    Now I want to return to the default settings, and I'm unable to start on the HP Recovery partition.

    When I press F11 at startup it boots regular OS, but not the HP recovery software.

    How can I get my work as a recovery partition?

    Problem has been solved!

    It seems that recovery partition boot records have been corrupted by the installation of the non-native OS, but the directory structure and files were intact.

    Steps performed:

    -J' created the recovery USB using HP USB recovery Flash Disk Utility disk

    just add a new entry to point the finger removable WIM image, see documentation for EasyBCD

    It's quick and dirty solution, there will be more estetically without creating recovery USB drive, simply add the for the recovery partition boot record.

    Yes, as long as Vista is still installed on the hard drive you can use a copy of Windows 7 upgrade to upgrade your computer but you will need to boot the computer with the Windows 7 dvd and perform a custom installation.  Which will remove all your programs and data so there will be very practical backups.

    The best option is to repair Vista first.

    Before dismiss you the idea of buying a copy of the full license of Windows 7, remember that it would be transferable to a new computer much more easily that an upgrade copy is.

  • Does not start after the reload of the operating system

    OK, this is my story of boredom.  I have a Lenovo T61 Type 6463-5BU, S/N L3-xxxxx.  The hard drive died a few weeks ago, and since then, I have received a replacement drive under warranty, that is the exact same drive type.  We had a backup image of the old system under Norton Ghost and managed to get the image to the new disk once it has been installed.  To do this, we used a utility called OS
    'BartPC '.

    Since then, I did pretty much everything I can think of to get the system to boot, including playing with the BIOS settings, setting the drive to 'boot' and 'active' with the help of a number of public services, including the good old "diskpart" and many others.  The reader will just not start.  A few times I could read the disc using Bart in command prompt mode, but I never managed to boot from it.

    The laptop has a finger print reader, but I was told several times that this has nothing to do with the problem.  So... before I cut off the finger of a person and drag in the player... What am I doing wrong here?
