Windows 7 Bootcamp VM Fusion 3.0 problem of reactivation.

Hello

I have problems with the activation on my bootcamp vmdrive.

I have a late 2008 macbook Pro 2.53 Ghz, 4 GB, 9600GT 512 MB. Run mac os x 10.6.2 & Vmware Fusion 3.0.

The bootcamp, I run Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, which activates very well.  It is on a separate partition. Coming up as "/ Volumes/Bootcamp & owners enabled = no.» 54.56 GB formatted NTFS.

I installed the bootcamp VM, then install the vm-ware tools, reboot. Then tried to re-activation, but it doesn't.

I tried to add the line SMBIOS.reflectHost = "TRUE" in the .vmx but that din't solve it either.

Any suggestions?

None.   When you have installed Windows on your BootCamp partition, activate you before added as a virtual machine in Fusion, then installed VMware Tools inside while running molten.

So, when you went to turn it on again when running it in fusion, Windows Activation looked at your current hardware configuration, generated a new hardware to your system ID and tried to activate it.  But, it was so different from the hardware ID, he had on the recording of your previous activation, he assumes that you were trying to install Windows on a totally different system.  Then, he returned this message saying that you have to call Microsoft to reactivate.

This is normal and expected behavior in Windows.  This is why it is recommended to install VMware Tools inside the BootCamp partition during his execution in Fusion, before activating Windows for the first time.

  • can not start after the installation of 10 Windows via bootcamp OSX

    Hello, I need help.

    I tried to install 10 Windows via bootcamp, and I did it successfully with no problems. However, after the installation, I restarted my computer, hold down the option key and tried to boot into OS X, but it won't work. It would be a symbol that boot lead me to windows 10!

    NOTE: when I formatted the partition for windows, he said not bootcamp next to him, but it is clear that the partition that I had to format, it is the same size that I decided to make Windows when I was in bootcamp in OSX + it was empty at 100%.

    UPDATE 1: so I managed to get into the recovery of the internet and deleted the partition that had the windows and install OSX Marverix instead (temporarily) also, I fixed the hard drive MACINTOSH HD, but now I can't boot it at all when I press the option button during the priming of the mac. all solutions?

  • Mac startup showing Mac and Windows without windows in Bootcamp installed

    Hello

    I currently have a Mid-2009 MBP under Snow Leopard.

    In the past, I used Bootcamp for Windows 7 (then at 10 horrible) and had no problems.

    Annoyed, shattered Windows 10, returned to Windows 7. Made backup using the backup utility Windows on/dev/disk1 /.

    Had problems with El Capitan and wiped out all/dev/disk0 /.

    According to the screenshot below, when I start my computer displays the boot Mac and Windows options.

    I narrowed down it to caused by/dev/disk1 /, but there no other Windows operating system or backup are there.

    Is it possible that this is due to the partition on/dev/disk1/and EFI is possible to remove this fact and the option to start Windows without annihilating the entire HARD drive?

    EDIT: I know what may be in the wrong sub, please feel free to move if necessary.

  • Windows with Bootcamp on iMac with only SSD HD?

    I would like to run Windows with Bootcamp on my iMac. Retina iMac late 2014 with no internal hard drive, only the SSD and the 10.11.4. After countless tests, I dropped; I ask the community, is - it possible at all?

    Yes, but your post is so incomplete, you did not provide details of what errors you got. Chances are you have too small a SSD and simply do not have enough space.

    Finally, I ask the moderator to move this thread on the forum of Boot Camp. This is an iMac general forum where most users use only OS X.

  • HP Pavilion & "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor came across a problem.

    Windows 7 would work on my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6132eu)?

    So I used "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" of the Microsofts. Which caused the error "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor stumbled into a problem that your scanning devices. Upgrade Advisor needs to be able to scan your devices to determine whether your computer is capable of running Windows 7 ".

    The laptop is probably not good enough for Windows 7, why?

    I assumed, the Upgrade Advisor would tell me, what pieces of hardware is / are not specific to Windows 7.

    In a forum Technet, say, the Adviser is blocked by some HP hardware. Which?

    Best regards, Willem

    My problem has been resolved.

    Previously, the problem with "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor BETA.

    I waited two months - now, I executed the Adviser again, resulting in "an important upgrade".

    And guess: update Advisor works like a rocket, finishing with a nice report with minor problems.

    So I think that the problem was a "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" - problem - not a HP computer laptop-problem.
