Win 7 Boot shows the Win XP Recovery console

Installed Win 7 Pro from MS Store a session on a Win XP computer. The installation went well, but when it starts it shows the next time you start the menu - Window 7 and the Recovery Console options. In my opinion, the recovery console is XP and cannot be deleted in the start-up boot menu. Any thoughts on how to remove and start automatically on Win 7? Thank you

Removal of D:\MiniNT in the window of the System Configuration and you'll be fine.  Windows 7 has been installed in C:\Windows as a 'clean install', which is normal when upgrading to Windows XP.

  • dv7 7338ea: recnot recognized the media start Recovery Console

    I did a backup and recovery media set before installing a second operating system in legacy (from bios) for dual boot mode.

    The second operating system starts up fine, but the options of grub2 to boot win8. 1 and win8. 1 recovery mode gives the error "windows couldn't boot...". »

    I see all my data from drive C: is there. It seems to me that just the trunk has been corrupted.

    I put in the first disc of recovery and boot from that medium. The option to check the disc I choose command line. Then, I try to run "bootrec /fixboot" but told me that bootrec is not recognized as an internal or external command.

    Where can I find bootrec? Which would normally be my problem.

    I don't want to take an option to format the drive. That would be stupid.

    After that, I installed fedora 21, which is UEFI on Qubes. Still no luck the windows startup that gives the same error. Fedora trouble when I installed the driver from rpmfusion nvidia. So I reinstalled fedora and restarted.

    Start-up went directly into windows.

    In conclusion, bcdboot is the key to fixing screws this GPT UEFI boot upward. Installing a bootloader UEFI since Fedora seemed to update things.

    I wouldn't have to reinstall windows for something like that. Maybe an option in recovery media to replace the boot for UEFI data would be good?

  • Recovery Console hangs after selecting 1

    I can't start windows. It is said system32\config\system is damaged or missing.  I tried to use the XP CD and recovery console, but it crashes after selecting 1.  It does not have a password, freezes right after that I typed 1 and press ENTER.  Also, it crashes when you try to install XP from the disk, it sticks to the 'Search previous versions of Microsoft Windows... "I can't get in the consol to run checkdisk, and apparently, I can't reload even windows XP.  Any ideas?  I have a full backup of the important stuff to an external drive, so I can do a full charge if necessary.

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    Okay - you have two immediate problems...

    You must run chkdsk/r from the XP Recovery Console.   The chances of the file really be missing or damaged are slim.  Always start by chkdsk /r from the Recovery Console when you see this message.

    Since you have a SATA HDD, when you start in the XP from a CD Recovery Console, you may not understand the configuration either hang (trying to figure out), or if you get into RC, you will not be able to run chkdsk/r because it does not include the SATA HDD configuration.

    You must enter the BIOS of your system (i.e. before XP starts to load), sometimes pressing the "Del" key on your keyboard and temporarily change the settings of your HARD drive to a sort of IDE or IDE compatibility mode, and then boot into the Recovery Console, and then run chkdsk /r (several times until it runs its own) and then put your BIOS to the way it was before you started.

    That means that when you change the BIOS, you must take note of the way in which it is implemented here, so you can change it when you are finished (or worse).

    I have accumulated the following can help you to adjust your BIOS, but you have to understand it maybe just to experiment a little - be sure to make a note of what it is that you change so you can restore the settings.

    The adjustment is done in the BIOS and could be in Integrated Peripherals, Configuration of SATA, SATA Mode device.  After you make the changes, save them and see how your Recovery Console works now.

    If you find that the mode is set on the RAID/SATA mode, change the IDE mode.

    If you find that the mode is set to SATA, change the IDE mode.

    If you find that the mode is set to SATA, SATA mode off.

    If you find that the mode is set to AHCI, change the ATA mode.

    If you find that the mode is set to AHCI emulation Mode, change the IDE emulation mode.

    If you find that the mode is set to SATA, SATA mode off or change the ATA mode.

    If you find that the mode is set to SATA Native Mode, disable the native SATA Mode.

    If you find that the mode is set on AHCI/RAID Autodetect, change the combination mode.

    After completing the settings, ACCEPT and SAVE changes and reboot the system and see if it will now boot on the CD from Recovery Console.

  • For the recovery console administrator password

    OP: Dual boot, password Admin

    I have dual boot windows xp and ubuntu. My bf has removed my boot partition, so I can not even boot to any OS.

    I tried to make the windows recovery ""fixboot"then 'fixmbr' and reboot."  I know will fix my problem. But the thing is that I don't me remember my password admin Ive not tried all the ones I use. Nothing works. I was wondering if there is something I can do in addition to a complete re install of XP?

    I don't mind losing ubuntu, but I really don't want to loose whats on my XP partition.

    Thanks for your help!

    Sara

    Hello Sara,.

    The password of the Windows XP Recovery Console is ideally empty. I suggest you just press ENTER when you are prompted for the password to the recovery console.

    If you are not able to access the recovery without password console, this means that the password is configured by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), you will need to either consult the user manual or contact your computer manufacturer.

  • SG300 how the cli password recovery

    Hello

    We want to change the password of our switch, but we don't know. We can gain physical access to the console, but he asked to the user and the password?

    We read that you can launch the start menu password recovery service. But, how can we get the boot without the password menu?

    Best regards

    Hello

    In order to reset the password in the start menu, you need to interrupt the boot of the switch process.  Console in and power cycle the switch, you should see the Cisco logo, then you have about two seconds press a key to get the boot menu.  If you miss it (or it expires once your inside) power cycle just the switch again to bring it up again.  The switch in front of me, it is option 3 to reset the password.

    However, it is possible to disabled this option, so if it is not available in the start menu the only way to restore access to the switch will be factory default by pressing the button, rest for 30 seconds.  Then you will need to reconfigure the device, but the default cisco/cisco connection you will get once the switch resets.

    Thanks for choosing Cisco,

    It's hard to type this command every time so I saw the batch command
    But if I type lot has my recovery console (I use windows 7 recovery and it works) it seems that the command is not existing
    So where can I download this file so that I can use it?

    batch.exe fix001t, txt
    batch.exe fix002.txt
    txt - s are so in these commands that I usually type
    I hope that I wolud find this file
    Thank you.

    Look here:

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial161.html

    Unlike the Windows XP Recovery Console, "batch" is not a command recognized in the Windows 7 system recovery environment.

    You must also have a bootable Windows XP Recovery Console CD. For more information:

  • Different on the MS recovery console administrator password

    When I was with the XP CD recovery console, he asked my password.  When I typed in it, it is incorrect.  However, once I typed in anything, it worked.  I have a single installation of windows, so the first question, which is "what Setup do you access", had only one possibility, of course.  Maybe it was a virus that has changed.  But once I took action, the usual log on screen appeared, and my password worked.  Is the recovery console suppose to do?  Why?  This is my 3rd time only having to use the console. most of them have been guided, anyway.  I'm not familiar with the controls.

    Unfortunately, we do not know much about your system, so we have to endure a round of Q & A to provide the best advice.

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    The XP Recovery Console "must" the XP administrator password, and the default XP administrator password is any password empty or empty, so if you just press the Enter key has the prompt for Password Recovery Console, which usually works.

    The RC will always ask you which installation you want to use - even if you have just a single installation (this is normal).

    Sometimes people may not enter the RC because they do not know, I forgot or never knew their administrator password... then they're stuck - but only temporarily.

    Sometimes the way XP has been installed (as in a store bought system) can thwart attempts to get past the Password Recovery Console.

    If it is your desire, you can configure XP simply do not ask for a password when starting in the Recovery Console.

    If you do a search on the Internet (Google, Bing, etc.) you can find a lot of articles on the use of the Recovery Console.

    Here are some links of Microsoft on RC orders:

    I'm not a total newbie, but it's been some time that I used the recovery console.

    Help?  Thanks in advance and greetings to all

    Morey

    Try to be more specific with the error messages you see, so it does not guess or try things.

    Here is an example of a popular error message that sounds like yours (maybe):

    STOP: c000021a {fatal system error}
    The Windows logon process ended unexpectedly with the status of 0xc0000034 (0 x 0000000 0000000 x 0).
    The system has been shut down.

    What exactly tell your message?

    There should be copies of XP system files backup all critical already on your hard drive in the windows\system32\dllcache folder (it is this case), you may not need any expansion.

    I would like to see the exact error message, make a CD bootable Recovery Console, run chkdsk/r even if he doesn't find anything to do and then see the replacement of missing persons or suspicious files, either by copying it in the backup copies of replacement of the recovery, or from another CD Console, you can do if the Recovery Console gives you a hard time (first do the CD Recovery Console).

    First of all, you need to start on something...

    You can do a restore bootable XP CD as follows:

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

    This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the command prompt.

    Start by checking the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

  • If I get the dvd of recovery to win s 7 of the manufacturer, what problems is I meet when I try to boot from a usb dvd player

    Separated from this thread.

    OK here is what I was asking.  If I get the dvd of recovery to win s 7 of the manufacturer, what problems I will get when I try to boot from a usb dvd player.  I worry because my computer is uefi firmware. should I disable secure boot, make sure the dvd usb drive first in the boot order.  What other bios setting I would be worried.

    You will get a facility better if you find the ISO to create such media as discussed in step 1 of the clean reinstall Windows 7 follow these steps to get the best possible installation.  You can even create flash media if that's easier for you.

    Regard to Recov disks that reinstall all the bloatware factory, Yes, you must disable Secure Boot in firmware that doesn't support UEFI to install Windows 7, and then start the media as a UEFI device.

    After installation, you can pick up some performance and optimize the installation by following Clean Up Factory Bloatware .

    You can also do a Clean install Windows 10 improvement using the Windows 7 product key, as this is explained in this link.   You can at any time change to Windows 7, even move back and forth until only is installed at the same time.

    Let us know if there are any questions and how it goes.

  • XPS 12 / Win 8: how to boot from the recovery partition / reinstall Windows?

    Messed up things on a newly purchased 12 XPS in Windows 8, and I want to boot from the recovery partition and reinstall windows.

    Support online pages point by pressing F8 during startup, but this does not at all.

    How can I access the recovery partition?

    To access to the menu of, , press F2.

    To enter the boot options menu, press F12.

    Because the XPS 12 boots so fast, it is better to repeatedly press F2 or F12 after restarting the machine. During the startup process, texts for options should appear at the bottom right of the screen. If you enter Windows, you will need to restart again and press F2 or F12 until it works. However, I don't think there is an option in the BIOS to restore the computer to its factory condition. The previous post by DELL-VIKRAM M describes how to properly restore the machine to its factory state.
