  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  This problem may be due to a corrupt or damaged files in the system partition or boot record that are required for Windows 8.1 start successfully. You may need to run the automatic repair of Windows 8.1.

  However, I would recommend at this point, contact the manufacturer of the Tablet for the best support possible, since you use dualboot.

  Please respond to this topic, after you talk with the manufacturer so that we can continue to research the issue and help you accordingly.

  Do not hesitate to write to us in case you have any problems/concerns while working on your computer, we will be happy to help you.

  Thanks for the quick response. This machine has been flaky (Norton 360 will load but not run and other programs run very slowly at the point of being almost unusable. Since I got this computer from a deceased relative, I'm not sure what it does for her.

  What I do is the backup of the machine and do a full restore back to the original state and from there.

• DELL refuses to honor the Windows 8 Pro downgrade rights

  XPS13 (early 15) purchased for the CFO.  No. 7 Pro achievable so I bought a Pro 8 model with the intention to exercise my downgrade rights.

  Spent 4 hours shoehorning 7 Pro plus all the drivers on it.  Last step is activation.

  Try to activate and call Microsoft by them Backgrounder:

  

  They tell me to call the OEM as only the OEM can make OEM key.

  Call Dell (politely and patiently) over and over again and get:

  -hooked upward on

  -told to call Microsoft

  -said to return the system and order a version of Windows 7 (does not exist)

  -said to order Windows 7 Media (does not exist)

  -a said several times by several representatives that Dell has a 'special' OEM license that does not include downgrade rights.

  How the hell do you expect Dell maintain the SMB space (i.e. people not their operating system volume licensing) with this skin and * - and - bull story?

  Nobody knows the correct channel at Dell to get this very basic need met?

  Right of demotion for the license OEM Dell Windows 8/8.1 Professional requires a Dell Windows 7 Professional reinstallation DVD order to use the OEM System locked preinstallation. See here where I explain licensing and how SLP activation works more in detail:

  License OEM is a minefield and with Microsoft break the digital distribution of windows 7 that it becomes even more difficult.

• Windows XP does not start in a dual-boot system

  I have a Windows XP and Linux Mint 10 Julia on separate partitions in a dual boot system. Windows has been installed first, followed by Linux. Initially, the two worked, then, for some reason any I had to reinstall Linux. Now I can't get into Windows.
  I can't enter the recovery by using the Windows CD Mode if that helps.
  GIA

  booting from cd is not always the best way to start an operating system installed on disk 0, for example drive C.

  Yes, the default value for fixboot will always be the first drive to the motherboard, regardless of how many additional hard disks are installed.  It is the way windows is designed to be.  but in all fairness, you can start windows via a USB key with recent technology created by hp.com

  also, if the disk check found a few errors then it means that there are corrupt or missing files.

  so, at the command prompt go ahead and Run fixmbr, fixboot, bootcfg /rebuild and a chkdsk/r

  You can also type help at the command prompt to get the details of the above.

  An in Windows 7 Startup Repair can solve the problem - give it a try.

  Try to use BCDEdit: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/2676-bcdedit-how-use.html. You can modify the startup files to create a situation of dual boot (make sure that you use the existing boot files - be they on the Vista partition or partition Windows7).

• Can you install Windows XP Professional utility: Setup for floppy diskettes Boot Install on a flash drive?

  Can you install this on a USB flash drive, if you don't use no floppies? If you can, how?

  Can you install this on a USB flash drive, if you don't use no floppies? If you can, how?

  In addition to the above answer, even if your computer supports booting from a usb key, based on my experience, it is easier to use a cd rom. usb Flash drives can be very difficult to use to install windows. I did a couple of times but not without problems. If the computer you are using is able to boot at all, and you do not have a cd rom USB that you can try to install windows over the network.  Install windows from a flash drive is a long process. $30USD for a usb CD-ROM.

  See the article on the link below if you need to install a flash drive.

  I have two in my lappy.one OS is xp in the 'c' drive and the other a W7 would ' player .when I install software in W7 drive 'c' will the files... any body can help me?

  You say that the files will drive c but, check this out. When you start in Windows 7 it is listed as being installed on the 'C' drive and Windows Xp is on drive "D". If you start Xp a list as being installed on the 'C' drive and show Win 7 on drive "D". By default, Windows installs the reader 'C' no matter what you previously selected to be drive letter. In other words, Windows will identify the hard drive that you have chosen to settle in the 'C' drive Hope that makes sense.

• License OEM Windows 7 Professional 32-bit come with downgrade rights to XP Professional?

  If I buy a copy of (System Integrator) OEM Windows 7 Professional 32 - bit, does include downgrade rights to Windows XP Pro?

  I build essentially the individual PCs for personal use and small businesses; However, I have a client who seeks PCs 35 at point of sale that will have access to a central server.  Although I recommended the use of XP mode in Windows 7, my customer has been informed by its supplier of software that XP Pro is the best option for the current version of the software.

  Although I could purchase copies of XP Pro OEM, my concern is that - during the life cycle of these PCs - my client will have to migrate to Windows 7, as new versions of its software point of sale are available.  If possible, I would like the opportunity to buy Windows 7 Professional OEM licenses, installation of XP Pro with downgrade rights and later have the ability to change to Windows 7 without having to purchase new licenses.  Is it an option if I buy Windows 7 Professional OEM licenses?

  Also, I need 35 licenses for a single customer, volume licenses would be more cost-effective?  My current Windows 7 Pro OEM or Windows XP Pro OEM price is about $ 150 per license.

  Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

  Yes, a version of Windows 7 Professional OEM rights to downgrade to Windows XP Professional.  Volume license is not a scheme of licensing "for resale.

• Clean install of Windows 7 Professional on a new ssd.

  I intend to buy an ssd. my pc was originally run under windows vista and I had him upgraded to windows 7 Professional. is it possible to do a clean install of my windows 7 Professional on the new ssd? If so, how? and Microsoft will allow this? It's always the same pc.

  If you have a win7 upgrade version, you must install the earlier version of the victory first then move to win7.

  If your version of Vista was preinstalled by the PC manufacturer you pourriez have encountered problems with your recovery disc for the ssd.

  Personally I would not buy a smaller than 256 GB ssd

  Depending on the size of your current C drive, it might be better advised to clone the SSD using a third party, software of imagery of the installation, for example Acronis TI, as she has more options than the buit in win7 imaging tool

• Dual boot Windows vista 32 bit with win 7 64 bit

  Is it possible to dual boot

  Windows Vista Business 32-bit
  with
  Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
  I do not want I want to have two operating systems
  Now, I have a 25 GB Partion ready for Windows 7, I only have Vista currently.
  Apparently XP32Bit can dual boot with win7 64-bit but can vista 32 bit?
  There will be problems with a Dual Boot Vista/Win7?

  Hello

  You must ensure that 64-bit Windows 7 drivers are available from the manufacturer of your computer for all the hardware, or it will not work properly.

  And is the same for your printer, etc.

  Read this tutorial on dual boot them, including system requirements:

  See you soon.

  p.s. We need a full license of Windows for two operating systems, as upgrade does not here apply.

• Try to have a dual-boot with Windows 10 & FEDORA

  Hello
  I have 10 Windows installed. I want to have a dual-boot installation of Fedora 23.
  I created a partition. I installed Fdora. Everything seemed fine, but my system keeps on startup on Windows 10. I never get a dual-boot menu.
  No idea where this can be configured?

  I did or tried things:
  -updated my bios to the latest version
  -looked for installation of UEFI, I can't find where I can add the grub Fedora (something) any idea?
  -changed the quick boot setting in the Windows registry to 0
  -tried many things in the BIOS but no luck

  Thank you
  Damien

  Hello

  Please tell me a little background here.
  -C' was a unit of 10 Windows factory installed? Means to come with factory Win10? If not, this operating system has been installed on the factory unit? 7, 8, 8.1?
  -I guess that the aircraft had Win10 and you then added 23 Fedora. How did you go about to achieve this? Did you use the installer to resize a partition first? Which partition?
  -Don't you let Installer automatically configured partitions or did you do it manually?

  I tried it myself and was only partially successful, but got a quite different result that you did.
  Win10 has been installed at the factory.
  I resized the partition system (c) allow about 100 GB for Fedora 23.
  Let the installer automatically created the partition in that space.
  Once installed, the unit can restart in GRUB2 (Please note: NO of Win10) and let me choose boot Fedora or Win10.
  The boot of Win10 was however broken and I had to take a few steps of dignostic before Win10 has finally started ok (as did 23 Fedora of course).

  Then when everything was done, the device starts in GRUB2 and let me choose between Fedora and Win10.
