• Bootcamp: Installation of Windows 10 USB cannot find bootcamp partition

  Hello

  I deleted the old partition 10 windows using bootcamp, upgrade of the space itself.

  I ran BootCamp again to set up windows 10 pro, as I had already installed on my end 2012 21.5 "iMac and the wizard successfully install on a USB stick, my Windows 10 ISO and any software downloaded from Apple.

  After restarting, start the configuration of Windows 10 until the selection of the partition.

  I, as the statement says, choose partition, BOOTCAMP and Format. Then I click Next, but the Windows says:

  "I can't create or find a partition...". »

  So I can't install it... What is going on? How can I fix this as never before appeared?

• Bootcamp partition Windows will not start since WinUpdate

  I'm working on a MacMini (mid 2011) on which a bootcamp partition has been installed. I had to work on windows update etc...

  So I did update from our wsus server, and then restart Windows, windows no longer starts. There was a line of white underscore flashing on a black screen.

  I tried to see if the Mac partition (10.7) was able to start. It has been altered too, but I was able to reinstall it.

  __

  on windows, I followed these instructions: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4936761?tstart=0

  To do this, I created a USB bootable key WIN10 (regardless of the Version of the OS in this case), I started on it to access the repair menu. Here, I opened the CMD and had results of the thesis:

  
  x:\sources>cd c:\ 
  
  x:\sources>Bootrec.exe /Fixmbr 
  
  Operation succeed 
  
  x:\sources>Bootrec.exe /FixBoot 
  
  Operation succeed 
  
  x:\sources>Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd 
  
  Number of windows installation identified : 1 Add the installation to boot list ? : O 
  
  Asked System Device not found. 
  

  I assumed it was due to drivers for windows compatibility. (something like record of $ $WinPEDriver), but no idea how to put them on my bootcamp partition, previously never worked with bootcamp.

  I should also mention, I tried a classic Windows repair, he told me that my windows partition has been locked. I assumed it was a problem of version of bootcamp. I've updated everything on my mac partition, but he found no update for bootcamp. Right now I'm preparing a bootable usb key with both 'iso' and 'windows compatibility modules' activated with bootcamp assistant.

  I don't know when it happens, but now, when I try to boot on my bootcamp partition, there are only blackscreen (not slider more). But also, my screen flashes as if he finally gets the signal just before the black screen.

  I need your help for:

  -Fixed problem starting Windows partition, OR...

  -Give me a way to get the activation key for the license of the installed windows (without starting it (if it exists)), so I can reinstall it correctly.

  Thanks for the kind help and forgive my bad English.

• 10 Windows Bootcamp Partition encryption

  Hey all!

  First of all, thanks for any help that anyone can provide!

  I've been digging around online for any help regarding encrypt the partition 10 Windows on a MacBook Pro.

  From what I've read online, it seems as if the OSX partition is encrypted with FileVault. the bootcamp partition will break (failed to connect to Windows plus). If the BootCamp partition is encrypted by BitLocker; the OSX partition will break (unable to connect to the OSX partition).

  If the statements above are met, the more desirable (and apparently the only viable solution for my situation) is to recreate the BootCamp partition to be primary (take up more HARD disk space, leave 5 to 10 GB for OS x), install Windows 10, encrypt the drive with BitLocker and never connect to OS x again.

  This line of thinking is right? It's a bit difficult to find information about this specific set of scenarios.

  To help, here are my requirements "in stone":

  • I need Windows 10, cannot work without it
  • I would like to OSX, but can do without them.
  • I can't change the laptop or hardware, the MBP is my only option
  • I need to encrypt my daily driver must be

  Bump! Anyone able to offer some insight?

• Running from a Bootcamp Partition vs virtual disk

  Is there an advantage to run Windows 7 from a vs Bootcamp partition a virtual disk image?

  I started to use a virtual disk image and just created a Bootcamp partition and added to the merger.  Things seem to be quite a bit faster using the Bootcamp partition.

  Is this the case in general?  Just curious to know what others have experienced.

  Thank you!!

  It is normal that you feel.  Realize that a VM is running "virtual hardware", which is generally not as fast that runs the operating system directly on the physical hardware.  Think of it as speaking through a translator.  There is a 'delay' for the message to be delivered. Take a look at the frequently asked Questions on VMware Fusion, about halfway down, the section on virtual hardware.

  For Boot Camp however virtual, take a glance to choose the settings of VM right.  Among the main reasons to use one or the other would be the advantage of the speed of Boot Camp against the convinience of not having to restart the Mac or the ability to run several machines against virtual simultaneously only running an instance of Boot Camp.  (e.g.: simulate an entire network, with the file server, web server, mail server, etc., with just one physical machine.)

• Impossible to install 10 Windows on Bootcamp partition

  #1

  Hello! I just tried to install Windows 10 on my Macbook with a 32 GB USB using Bootcamp. Everything was fine until I came to the part where I have to choose the partition where I want to install my Windows 10 and of course I chose the Bootcamp partition, but in fact I couldn't click on 'next' (I was so stupid and don't format it).
  So I just format the Bootcamp partition and when I tried to click 'next' he just told me 'we could not create a new partition or locate an existing one. I went through google and searched all regarding this problem and there are a lot of guys having almost the same or exactly the same 'error' when trying to install 10 Windows on the Bootcamp partition, but nothing has really helped me. I deleted everything except my USB key and someone told me that I should only have 4 partitions or less.
  He shows me the 4 partition but there are two partitions (3) and two partition (1).
  Is this a problem?
  Here is a picture of my diskutil list: https://i.gyazo.com/f554fb8aac609c2420f55f9696fa06a6.pnggiven that English is not my native language, I'm sorry for my bad spelling.
  I hope someone can help me install Windows 10 with Bootcamp! Thank you very much!

  You have a Fusion drive, which is usually not sold on a MacbookPro? You can check model/year your Mac? Please, do not post the serial number of your Mac.

  If you replaced the optical drive to create your own Fusion player, you can run the questions, depending on the year/model of your Mac.

• Bootcamp partition extended, now cannot start Windows

  Hi all, hope you can help. Running Windows 7 on Bootcamp partition. OS X El Capitan 10.11.5 on the other side.

  Needed to make Windows larger partition to install away from port, although comments, not sure that all this pain is worth it. That's what's happened so far:

  1. I enlarged the Bootcamp using disk utility partition

  2 restart the computer and now the Alt key, I could not see the usual option to start the Windows partition.

  3 then I read that I had to go to the preferences system and make my boot drive Bootcamp, I did.

  4 but on reboot, I get the error message "no boot device - insert the diskette and press any".

  5. isn't a step 5. The hope that you could help me find one.

  Thanks in advance for any wisdom.

  How to enlarge a Boot Camp partition is either:

  a. assistant Boot Camp use to remove Windows and refer the reader to a single partition. Then reinstall Windows using Boot Camp Assistant by specifying the size of Boot Camp, that you need for now.

  b. use CampTune, a third-party application, to resize one already set up to the Boot Camp partition.

• Bootcamp partition is not as boot drive, after running bootcamp to install Windows 10 on MacbookPro 15 "El Capitan running

  Hello

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows on my Macbook Pro. I followed this guide, but I am stuck between steps 3 and 4. In disk utility, I see that the bootcamp partition is created, but it does not appear as boot drive. I also tried to start my mac while pressing the option key, but still it will not show.

  See below for a screenshot that shows the current state of my machine.

  

  

  

  How can I continue to install 10 Windows on my Mac?

  Your BOOTCAMP partition internal not yet have Windows installed on it.  If you're between steps 3 and 4 (the installation procedure standard), your, assistant Boot Camp should automatically rebooting your computer after partitioning, from the installation media (Windows 10 CD), you must have created.  I assume that you already have a Windows 10 installation disk.  Make sure that the disc is inserted when you first enter assistant Boot Camp and you let the computer restart on its own.

  Apple instructions are a bit vague (somehow I'm not surprised).

  Watch (time code 04:26 - 09:15) in next video for instructions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SxA_OsPEgk).

  Good luck.

• Tried to change the Bootcamp Partition, now I can't load Windows.

  Hello

  After trying to change my Bootcamp partition, I'm more able to start Windows. If I restart and hold option, I get only the Mac drive. However, I can still find the content of my Windows disk in the finder. Please can someone explain how I can get it back?

  I have a Mac running OS X El Capitan 10.11.2. I don't know what other information is needed, so please tell me and I can answer. Thank you very much.

  What changes did you make to the partition of BC? Can you post the output of the following commands in OS X Terminal?

  diskutil list

  Cs diskutil list

  sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  The "sudo" commands will prompt to enter your password, and there do not appear to come back. You can also see caution against improper use 'sudo' and the potential loss of data due to an "abuse" of the order.

• A Bootcamp partition is required to install 4 VMWFusion with Windows 7?

  I currently operates Fusion 2 with Windows XP using the Boot Camp partition.

  However, I would like to move to VMware Fusion 4 and Windows 7.

  My question is quite simple: I need the Boot camp to do partition, or can I install Fusion 4 on my HD and from there install Windows 7 without using the Boot Camp partition? This means that Windows 7 would be also installed on my HD and be operated through the VM Fusion.

  Thanks for your advice.

  My question is quite simple: I need the Boot camp to do partition, or can I install Fusion 4 on my HD and from there install Windows 7 without using the Boot Camp partition?

  No, you don't need a Boot Camp to install and use VMware Fusion.  Boot Camp is used to install Windows natively on a Mac, so it can take full advantage of the physical hardware.  VMware Fusion allows the operation of the Boot Camp partition install Windows as a Virtual Machine, but you can also create a regular file based Machine virtual Windows or other operating systems also well-supported.

  Unless you have a specific need to have Windows installed in native mode, there is really no need to install using Boot Camp, and instead simply use VMware Fusion to create a regular file based Virtual Machine and install Windows.  Also, I think you will see that you will have better performance using a Machine virtual normal vs running Boot Camp install Windows as a Virtual Machine.  You will also have access to features that are not available when you use a raw disks as with Boot Camp, snapshots and power suspend the Virtual Machine.

  How do you have a 100 MB NTFS file system and free space after the partition of 100 MB. You have a MSR (100 MB), but your windows are the current MSD.

  SIP is activated. Your MBR has no bootable entry, because it is not marked. Please describe in detail what steps were tried.

• Bootcamp Partition is corrupted or missing.

  Hello

  Update to windows 10 birthday and it seems that my bootcamp partition disappeared completely, I have a fusion of 2 TB drive (end of 2015 iMac) with partitions divided about 1 TB each. Bootcamp cannot see the windows partition more able to reclaim that space. OSX (10.11.6) works well however as a 1 TB fusion drive. Disk utility only sees the drive 1 TB as well.

  Either way, I want to recover Windows, or reclaim space for OSX without a reinstall full Mac OS x if it is possible? (Will reinstall windows if I can reclaim space)
