Windows 7 Pro does not start.

When starting my computer, I get the usual BACK info and BIOS works properly.  Now the problem.  All I get on the screen after the BIOS works is these words:

"No bootable device - insert boot disk and press any key".

What boot device?  I don't have a CD or a bootable floppy disk for WIN 7 and have not heard of one being available.

I've been running this machine for months with no probs.  I did an update to a program called System Mechanic.  I have to get back on but still out of habit.

I am running WIN 7 Pro. I have two hard drives.  A 320 GB and 500 GB.  Both are Seagates SATA. One is for the OS and the other to store the data.

The two HD display correctly in the BIOS...

It's the end of it.  Unable to get any further.

Help, please.  Send suggestions.  I KNOW that the two HD did not fail at the same instant.

Looks like you need a computer store real (no leeks and glances at a Best Buy or any other
Big box stores).

  • Windows 8 Pro does not start after windows update updates for April

    Hello

    Pulled up to my PC this morning and was asked to install updates from windows update. Check the list, there are 11 important available updates. I have unchecked and hiding implementing Nvidia updated as I want to do the updates of my GPU myself. Installed the remaining 10, completed and has been asked to restart my PC.

    The problems starts here; I am more able to start windows.

    It is past the bios screen, shows the blue flag with a circle of rotation below and then... nothing more than a black screen and my screen goes to mode 'sleep'.

    I tried to start in safe mode minimum clean using a prompt (bcdedit/set {default} safeboot) repair my installation disk option, but it does not start even in safe mode.

    I run system restore turned on so that the option is not valid for me.

    The system is now check the disk for errors, but it seems to hang there as well as happens for more than 2 hours now...

    Any way that I can return the updates of windows on the outside? Any other suggestions than the reset of the installation disc?

    Disappointed that the "major updates" Microsoft kills my work machine.

    Problem solved now and it was the update of KB2808735 who was / is the origin of the problem.

    I placed my SSD into another computer and was able to pull up in SafeMode off and remove the updates.

    Installed all the updates one by one until it chrashed again installing the update mentioned above.

  • Windows Firewall service does not start after the removal of Virus

    Hello

    I believe that my son's computer has been infected with the Trojan.Agent.Ed virus.  I managed to remove it (from different folders in AppData), but a few vestiges remain of course.  The windows firewall service does not start - it throws an exception to access denied on startup and when I try to start the service manually.
    I tried to run the Sysinternals Process Monitor to display all events ACCESS DENIED and checked the permissions on the key to registry MpsSvc in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services and compared to a corresponding Windows 7 machine.  I've even exported the key MpsSvc and sous-branches of the laptop in good health and tried to import into a failure, but the import does not seem to occur, even if it gives a message "imported".
    I also tried the troubleshooting of Windows Firewall that confusedly says:
    "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall... Not fixed
    "Set permissions for the registry keys involved"... succeeded
    "Windows Firewall service is not started. Not fixed
    "Starting the Firewall Service"... succeeded
    Any ideas would be most appreciated.
    Thank you.

  • the premier pro does not start in windows 10

    Hello

    I have just updated to windows install 10 with a cleaning. Now, I have a problem with the Premier Pro cs5.5. It does not start correctly.  instead of the projection of the screen it goes to an empty p [the age with the bar tools, then falls, disappears. I was wondering if I have to do a re-install or there may be an update to make it compatible to windows 10.

    In addition to the comments of John, a few people with a new Adobe DVA are struggling to get them to open in Win10 but found that by double-clicking the program file, the Properties section and choose "run as Administrator", they had to operate. That said... Win10 and a number of video applications are not on the excellent conditions in any universal sense.

  • Windows XP Pro does not correctly load after the release of the Radeon graphics driver

    Hello

    I have a Shuttle XPC with Windows XP Pro and an ATI Radeon Sapphire graphics card. The entire system is 5-6 years, if that helps my raw description.

    My graphic card Radeon has had performance problems, so I downloaded ATI "autodetect tool" and he did choose the update of the driver concerned. After installation and reboot, my PC load Windows XP, but remains unused in ' grainy 8 colors low resolution version ' of my office. No icons, toolbar or whatever it is well visible. The mouse moves the pointer autour, but does not respond to clicks. The only combination of keys which gives anything is Ctrl + Alt + Delete, raise the usual options (in this case useless) to lock the computer, close the session, stop etc.

    In short, it seems that I'm not really on my desk, even if it loaded my wallpaper by default.

    'Safe mode' or "last working configuration" does not take me anywhere useful.

    How to contact with the system to at least start to change my settings for graphics cards?

    I thank very you much for any help.

  • Tablet Dell coming 8 Pro does not start

    Hello

    The Tablet is only about a year. And I've kept it's safe and sound, no damages or drops. Nothing.

    But yesterday morning when I got it, he went to sea and no matter what I do, it does not start!

    I press and hold the start buttong. Nada. I even press the windows key or was desperate enough to press the volume even toggles!

    I thought that maybe the load isn't enough. So I let it charge overnight. Still nothing.

    He used to have a small problem before that sometimes he used to take a few minutes to actually boot (startup). But it's random and many times, it was when an update has been installed. But not always.

    But this time, he stayed off the coast and after more than 24 hours, does not illuminate!

    What should I do?

    Thank you

    I think just, I solved this problem. Make absolutely certain that you are using the supplied with your coming Pro USB wall wart, similar and ordinary phone chargers don't work reliably and sometimes not at all! There will be a sticker on the side of her windows. The Pro should need more energy than what is normally fed by normal phone chargers. I hope this helps!

    Also, I think that light orange/red momentary while that push the power button is actually an indicator of battery flat (as crazy as it sounds). These types of batteries are supposed to be completely empty as it will ruin their fast enough, so they are designed to power off with a few charges left to protect themselves to be completely discharged.
