WIN XP boot problem

At the start of Win XP, I get the expression "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME".  What is the problem and how can I get the machine to reboot?  Turning market does not work cannot find the CD...

With so little information (because MS Answers forums don't invite any), see if it sounds like your question:

  • Win XP / 7 activation to dual boot problem...

    Here's the scene:

    1 / have installed Xp and CS4 works fine... (used to have CS3 as well but there was a problem of mobo and CS3 now give an error of activation.) Too much hassle to reformat and reinstall... blah, blah, blah.)

    2 / just installed Win 7 to test as a dual boot and CS4 installed option. PS and HAVE both gives me a message "The product License has expired" without any options. There is no other activations, which means no alternative on another system or your laptop, etc.

    Is there a work-around, or do I have to make a completely fresh install? Which means, deactivate CS4 in th XP boot and then reinstall CS4 in th boot Win 7?

  • Satellite L50D - Boot problems after replacing the hard drive

    I just upgraded my hard drive of the pathetic crod 5400 they provide to a SSHD@7200rpm, but now have a major issue.

    I initially image the operating system from the old hard drive to the new drive and have had chronic start-up problems (1-3-4 attempts to start to succeed if it fails at any time (often to the Toshiba start screen)).

    I reinstalled from a drive under Win 8.1 plain own ENT (trying to avoid the bloatware) and it is exactly the same number and is what I used to format the laptop very well with previously and had previously worked.

    I tried reformatting and reinstalling (by removing all partitions on each attempt) to the CSM, unsafe UEFI and UEFI secure. MCS is a straight line never works not proceed and both UEFI methods have the same exact result.

    I tried with original restore disks and it seems to work (not had time to fully test) but I don't want the bloatware and it shouldn't be serious since, if I were a customer who forgot to make restore disks (too often) and just have to have a failed hard drive or replaced sacrificed the laptop would be now a door stop.

    This seems as bad as Apple to lock people in.

    So I would appreciate ideas of people to please, I don't know if there is a program that is supposed to take place on a new drive as PS3 etc (I doubt it), but that leads me into the wall, and will be the last time that I consider Toshiba as anything other than a joke, if there is no solution.

    I had to replace the hard disks many times in my previous Toshiba laptops and were devoid of this crod, it has something to do with UEFI which seems more a nuisance than a help right now.

    TIA.

    Hello

    In my opinion, you should first check if the startup problem is related to the new installed HARD drive or new installed system.
    You said that the laptop fails to start up often to the Toshiba start screen.

    The splash screen appears during the POST (power on self-test) procedure. During this test, the material will be checked.
    I m wondering if the hybrid SSD/HDD isn't recognised by the BIOS during this particular step.

    From my point of few, this could be the reason why the system cannot be started.

    Another important note:
    The 8.1 win requires enable start secure as well as the UEFI boot mode.
    Therefore, you must enable both options in the BIOS.

    Last but not least check if you are using the latest BIOS version as latest firmware for the hybrid SSD/HDD

  • MDT 2013 Thinkpad Yoga 12 - WinPE boot problems

    We have two models of Thinkpad Yoga and use the same ethernet USB dongle to run MDT and their image with Win 8.1.

    Type 20 c 0 works very well. When we arrived the 20DK of a new type, we had some problems with our image of fat because of the different hardware profile and we weren't using a configuration of total control for drivers on our MDT.

    I created a new MDT installation on a virtual machine and I use the method of total control of the management of drivers by model. I have a profile of selection for winPE and imported the drivers of storage and network for both models (x 64 only, we don't have any x 86). I tried initially the USB3 Ethernet adapter driver I found under downloads for the 20 c model 0 but have tried since the upload of pack pilot SCCM and other I found specifically for the adapter realtek and SCCM, but nothing has changed. The current versions of pilot in my winpe folder are 8.15.0701.2014 and 8.8.0911.2013. Have updated the deployment share, copied the contents of the x 64 folder and copied the litetouchx64.wim in the sources on our USB startup folder and renamed to boot.wim.

    Currently on the 20DK I get the initial screen for MDT spash with blue background, but before any connection charges of screen I get the blue screen of crash with error (ndis.sys) System_thread_exception_not_handled. I guess I do know for sure that it is a problem of network driver but because it fails before the same connection to the deployment share it led me to believe that this was the case. I tried to turn off 3 USB mode in the bios to see if this will have an impact, and he didn't.

    The 20 c 0 still works fine and I was able successfully to the image (from my old wim of fat that I copied from my old server mdt)

    Completed up to add all the drivers for this model in the folder of WinPE drivers and who took care of her.

  • Need code Win/XP boot.ini to boot Win7-System Restore from boot on another drive Manager

    I'm migrating to Windows/7 Pro x 64 Win/XP Pro SP3 system on a tower of M58p 3063-B8U PC.  I would like to encode a Win/XP Pro boot.ini file line beginning on screen (choice of Windows 7 or system restore) boot manager which is located on a different hard drive, installed in the PC.   I find that F12 on the ThinkCentre BIOS screen is delicate and does not reliably to the top of the boot list, so for the weeks I'm going to need Win/XP Pro SP3, I want to select the hard drive Win/7 Pro SP1 via a Win/XP Pro boot.ini file entry.   As always, your help is greatly appreciated.

    The end result is two panels 'boot' if Win/XP Pro is not enabled: the original boot.ini Win/XP Pro and the Windows 7 Boot Manager Panel and the restoration of the system that starts Windows/7 Pro in about 5 seconds.

    Thanks for your comment.

    It is a forum of thinkvantage technologies, so the recommendation to move to win7 discussion group. Never, I said that there is a problem with win7

    Your request can be resolved simply.

    Help to change the file Boot.ini in XP does not work.  XP knows zero on a win7 bcd. Win7 does not have a ntloader.

    You have 2 hard drives, 1 with xp, 1 with win7.

    Follow the link to sevenfourms:

    (1) set the bios to boot from hdd win7

    You can see your screen. Now the BIOS is out of the picture.

    (2) use easyBCD to add your xp system to the BCD

    (3) during startup, you can select xp or all your options to win7.

    (4) when the transfer goes xp, it will present (second form), who will all be choices coded in the boot.ini file.

    I think that will solve your request.

    (5) Note: the Bios selects the first active partition to find a boot loader, in this case, it should be win7.  on the HARD drive provided 1 in the boot list.

    (6) If you start to XP, you will also have the issue of win7 all deletion of restore points.

    (7) http://superuser.com/questions/225770/migrating-windows-xp-boot-ini-settings-to-windows-7-boot-loade...

    (8) personally, I unplug the Sata cable on xp then boot in win7 and vice versa.

    (9) Please stay on topic<>

    The sevenfourns post also shows how to add win7 for start XP.  This also requires easybcd to add the loader win7 on xp system.

    Good luck.

  • Installation of Win 7 USB problem reboot s10-2

    I did successfully my usb boot with win 7 on it. It also starts the windows installation. BUT THE ARISES PROBLEM WHEN THE SYSTEM IS RESTART FIRST TIME (after a few necessary files copy) it STARTS again ON THE DISK USB AND ALL PROCESS BEGINS once AGAIN (IN A LOOP AGAIN AND AGAIN)... But if I eject the usb drive it gives an error. HELP PLZ...

    He asks you to press the keys. If it starts on your USB drive when it is inserted, it means its default configuration in the BIOS at startup of the removable drive, click hard disk if the removable drive is not present.

    To do this. As soon as it starts, hold down the button F2 repeatedly until he catches and brings you to the BIOS. From there, set the boot order to boot from your hard drive first. Save and exit. It will restart and all the lights will be turned off. As soon as the lights go on again, hold on to the Fn key while pressing the F11 several times. If you do it right, the start menu appears, select start from your USB key. It will then start to your flash drive and windows 7 will begin the installation. The next time that it restarts, you need not to do anything about it either, since it will now reboot your Windows HD will continue to install. When it's done, it will charge the second time and the bureau will appear.

  • V2V - Windows 2003 - Boot problems

    Hi all,

    I have a little prob with a V2V Windows 2003 Server Standard (Hyper-V) after his conversion to ESXi 4. The powers of the virtual machine, but no boot process not begins - only a cursor flashes.

    Environment:

    Original Machine IBM 3650 (1.Generation) with Win 2008 x 64 Standard as a Hyper-V host

    Target the Machine IBM 3650 M2 with ESXi 4.0 (effective from the website)

    Conversion took place on the original (hot cloning) to the Server Machine target with Converter Standalone 4.0.1 (effective Web site)

    The conversion is completed successfully (100%) and didn't report any errors.

    The next steps I tried, were the steps listed in KB1006269. Unfortunately without success.

    After the above, I tried another conversion of a Machine of Hyper-V (Windows 2008 32-bit Standard), which works quite fine on the new hardware.

    Now my question: what would it be, Win 2003 Server does not start? The volume is accessible (as described in KB1006269 - CHKDSK does report no errors) but no chance to see something other than a cursor blinking. Please give me a hand - I don't got no more ideas...

    Thx a lot for your support

    Jens.

    I was ING p2v & had a similar problem and this fixed it.

    I converted from vmware server 1 started on that, then converted to ESXi4 equipment 7

    A bit of a pain, but it worked...

    VMWare Converter seems to have special characteristics, IE. It's a good idea to recreate the swap files once the machine virtual windows starts.

  • 4030CDS WIN 2000 pro problem

    Hello
    I try to install win 2000 pro on the laptop next - Satellite 4030 - I insert the CD and press and hold the 'C' key to boot from the Windows CD 2000 Setup screen appears and begins to install the drivers. The installer gets so far then the following message appears on the screen:
    STOP: 0X000000A5, 0X814884DC, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)
    The ACPI BIOS in this system is not fully complient with the ACPI specification. Please read me text for possible workaround solutions. You can also contact your manufacturer for an updated BIOS.

    So, what do I have to Flash the BIOS with the latest version, or is it possible that I can work around that? I've done a few things with PC (built some etc etc) BUT I have never tried flashing the BIOS before and I heard that it can go very wrong! Any suggestion would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hi Marc,

    If you update BIOS there are always good. The last, you can find on http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com under Support & Downloads Download BIOS.

    This is the zip file, and there is also a text document that contains the BIOS update procedure. Follow this description, and you can do it with success.

  • Tecra S10 - 123 and Linux Mandriva boot problem

    I have a Tecra S10 - 123 for two months and wanted to install Mandriva on it (I have no experience with Linux...). I burn the Image on Cd image .iso file and changed the bios settings to boot from the CD-ROM. It works without problem, but Mandriva stops to boot from the Live Cd once the kernel is loaded.

    What can I do?

    Maybe it's a SATA question, have you tried to set the SATA Mode in the BIOS to "COMPATIBILITY"?

    Work the other flavors of Linux? Maybe Ubuntu will install properly.

  • HP P6110F desktop PC: win 10 update problem caused by the integrated audio system

    I have a problem of Windows 10 with a HP Pavilion - PC Office HP P6110F, 64-bit, 6 GB.  The motherboard is an IPIBL-LB/BENICIA-GL8E/G33/HP. The upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 went ok but after the last reboot, the system would crash immediately with the message "system_thread_exception_not_handled. Windows should restart and it repeats. I replaced the NVIDIA driver to the latest version of the driver for the video card GeForce 8400GS, which is supposed to work with Win 10 (v341.74). The problem continues. Eventually, I discovered that if I disabled the integrated audio system then the problem disappears. The integrated audio card is an ALC888S Audio integrated Realtek HD Audio Manager, so I downloaded the latest driver from Realtek and installed. The same problem. I then decided to try the generic audio driver for Windows. The same problem. The only way I can run 10 win on this PC is to completely disable the audio adapter. Then, everything works fine (except for the audio of course). Has anyone go through this? Is there a solution before buying a sound card for a 6 year old PC?

    BlueScreenView to watch mini dump.  Problem caused by stdriver64.sys... This traced to SoundTap NCH software.  Uninstalled SoundTap.  Problem solved.  The version of Win 7 of SoundTap is apparently not what you want in Windows 10.  There is a version more recent SoundTap which may (or not) has solved this problem.

  • Satellite A660 - boot problems USB after BIOS update

    Hello

    I own a Toshiba Satellite A660 and have recently updated the BIOS with the latest version (1.80). Since then, the laptop freezes on the splash screen (the one with the Toshiba logo) whenever a USB flash memory is attached.
    It works without the memory flash connected and if I connect it after I enter the starting or the BIOS Setup menu. I can even start her like that.
    As far as I'm concerned, this is a serious regression. Is there a way I can downgrade to the version of the BIOS, or any other way to solve this problem? I rely heavily on external USB drives.

    Kind regards
    Claudiu.

    Claudiu salvation,

    That is really interesting, I have to say so I tested on my new Satellite A660 and Transcend 4 GB USB Stick. Well, I also installed 1.80 BIOS but I can t view this problem HARD drive is set as first boot device and all the other BIOS settings are default. The Toshiba screen and Windows computer starts as usual.
    No problem at all!

    Have you tested different USB devices?

    In General, it is not possible to downgrade BIOS. It is possible to an authorized service because Toshiba on page you can download the latest version only but I doubt it s a bug in the new version of BIOS because it works on my A660.

  • Satellite PRO C660 - 1LR Boot problem

    Had this laptop for a little less than 2 months, was in course of running really slow so I backed up my data and do a factory reset, during the reset of the machine restarts automatically several times. After about 6 reboots everything I got a black with a cursor screen (ctrl + alt + delete does not work), the cursor moves but nothing happens, I guess that something was wrong with the recovery so I id try again, only to find the menu F8 at boot is no longer list of computer repair. Ive tried to boot from a CD but when I press '0' and press F12 when prompted, nothing happens, I'll be just the screen windows mem test.

    Also, trying to get into the bios, I press F2 when prompted and the message very quickly becomes "HDD Recovery" then continues towards the screen of windows mem test.
    So im a bit stuck now, I tried to remove the power and battery all night, but that did not help either.

    Any suggestions how to get this working again?

    Hello

    You mean that you cannot access the BIOS?
    To access the BIOS, you will need to press F2, immediately after pressing the power button. You can press F2 repeatedly in the line to make sure it worked.

    > Ive tried to boot from a CD but when I press '0' and press F12 when prompted, nothing happens, I just go back to the screen of windows mem test.

    In order to boot from recovery disc, just press F12 (don t press the 0 key). This should allow the start on-screen menu. Then you may choose the CD/DVD drive as the boot source

    But this sounds like a hardware problem; I think memory or HARD drive problem so maybe that these two parts must be checked also.

    There is a nice tool called Drive Fitness Test that allows to test the HARD drive for errors
