32bit to win7-64bit MS-7032 K8M disc read error

MS-7032 K8M Ver.1
AMIBIOS A7032VMS V3.3 10/13/04
VIA VT8237 chipset (Rhine II)
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 2GHz processor
2GB RAM
PNY Verto GeForce 7600GS AGP Version 5.73.22.33.51 512MB RAM
I had XP-32 bit SP3 installed, very slow with sound and mouse skips.
I want to upgrade to Win 7 Pro-64 bit (purchased download with valid key).  DVD was burned using instructions with download, BIOS set to boot from CD/DVD.  Upon inserting DVD get the following:
"Searching for Boot Record from DC/DVD-0..OK
CDBOOT:  Cannot boot from CD - Code:  5
NTLDR is missing
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"
I re-burned the DVD multiple times, and "tech support" verified the DVD is valid.  Get the same error every time.  Do not see any option to boot from USB in advanced BIOS tab.
Finally decided to install Win 7-32 bit, then try to go to 64 bit from there.  Downloaded and started setup from .iso file extract.  Win 7-32 bit installed fine.  Win 7 32 bit that I'm running now was installed from within running XP 32, did not boot from DVD.
I still want to go to 64 bit.
At tech support advice, I created a bootable USB from Windows 7 DVD/USB Download Tool.  Copied the bootsect.exe file from 32 bit .iso to Win 7 DVD Tool location, coupled with 64 bit .iso file and ran the Tool; got "bootable USB successfully created". 
Again no USB option listed in BIOS.  Restarted computer with USB drive installed, nothing happened, Windows booted as normal.
Burned new DVD with Win 7 DVD Tool, again 32 bit bootsect.exe and 64 bit .iso file, BIOS to boot from DVD first.  Tool indicated bootable DVD successfully created.  Could not boot from DVD again.  Tech support totally confused.  I did many internet searches, and found that some MSI and ASUS mobo's are having problems loading the boot record from Windows 7.  At least one page told me to update BIOS; software tech support also suggested this.
Then I joined this forum and searched all over for similar problems.  Found one thread that talked about USB Legacy and was told to turn that on.  Went home at lunch and turned on Legacy USB, went to BIOS still no USB boot option, but plugged in USB drive (with 32 bit bootsect and 64 bit iso successfully created from DVD/USB Tool, mentioned above), and restarted, hit F11 to see boot menu and Sandisk USB drive was recognized as a boot source.  I selected it and got the following:
"Searching for Boot Record from USB RMD-FDD..OK
A disk read error occured
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart.
At this point it appears as though if I have a USB drive inserted when I boot the computer, and hit F11, the BIOS will recognize that the USB is a boot option.
Do I need to update BIOS to be able to run Win 7 x64?  Looking at the available BIOS on the MSI Global - Mainboard K8M-Neo-V website there's not even a 3.3 listed so not understanding where my BIOS came from.  I'm nervous about updating BIOS, as the page warns you, if your computer's running, don't update.
I'm having some difficulty understanding exactly how to do a BIOS update, and am worried that if I do something wrong, I'm screwed.  Do I have to update BIOS to 3.7 first, then to 7.0?  Do I do this with the USB utility they're saying to use, or the USB tool on this forum?
Do I just need to update drivers?  Can I do that with the MSI live update?  Or do I have to update BIOS to use live update?
Please help, any advice is appreciated.  I'll gladly find out whatever information about my system you need, and post it here.

  • Disc Read Error Ctr + alt + Delete

    When I booted up my computer today with a black screen it says Disc Read Errir Ctr + alt + Delete. I restart it as it asks only to end up back at the same screen shortly after. Is something wrong with the Hardware of my computer? I unplugged any USB devices and made sure there was no disc in my disc tray. Help would be appreciated.

    A Disc read error is normally an indication of a hard disk failure that requires replacement of the hard disk with a new one. 
    I recommend that you purchase a recovery usb media thumbdrive from HP to restore your PC's operating system to its former useful state when you replace the hard disk. You will need a desktop SATA hard disk of no larger than 2.2 Terabytes. The storage capacity of the original hard disk was 750 GB. That capacity is no longer that easy to find at stores or online websites. 
    You should have made a recovery disk set or usb recovery media four years ago when you setup the PC. The initial setup software for the PC did ask whoever first turned it on if they were ready to make a recovery disk set.

  • When installing iTunes 10.5 64bit on my win7 64bit computer I get a weird error message.

    This all started when one day I plugged in my iPhone 4 to my iTunes 10.4 on my PC (win7 64bit) and I got nothing. I got the connection noise and my phone started charging but it would not show up in iTunes. In My Computer, it sees that I have an iPhone plugged in but shows it as a Camera, not a phone, and I am not able to see anything inside said "camera". At this point I decided to clear everything "Apple" off of my computer and manually install iTunes 10.5. Mid download i came across this error message that I have no clue what it is telling me. After clicking "OK" it then tells me "rolling back session" and then tells me that "Apple Mobile Device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." Since getting this messag I suspected that it was an AMD (apple mobile device) issue. AMD seems to be IMPOSSIBLE to uninstall/delete from my computer... At this point I'm giving up and looking for advice/help on this issue.
    Im lead to believe that it is an AMD issue because iTunes 10.4 reads my iPod Shuffle perfectly but wont read my iPhone 4 or a friends iPhone 3g.
    Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this!! Any help would be greatly appreciated because I dont want to reformat

    Hey donovanjj,
    Thanks for the question. Let’s try to recreate your SC Info folder:

  • HP Pavilion g4, reinstall Win7 64bit fm a DVD disc, not work

    I try to fix a problem for my friend's laptop. It is HP Pavilion G4
    running Win 7 64bit OS. The laptop can not start up the windows. I
    press ESC to pause the start up, and run system recovery, it shows BIOS
    setup, system recovery and others, I then press Fn + 11 key to run
    system recovery, but it never runs.
    I then remove the HDD, and connect to my computer to run testing. It
    seems it has something inside corrupted. It takes so long to recognize
    all partitions. I decide to format all partitions and then resize
    them. Afterwards, I run test and chkdsk. Everything is fine with the
    HDD now. I put the HDD back to Laptop, and insert a DVD disc of Win
    7, the laptop does not start from DVD. The screen shows as follows:
    Hard Disk Error
    Please run the Hard Disk Test in System Diagnostics.
    Hard Disk 1 (3F1)
    F2 System Diagnostics
    I visit the above link, I could not find relevant materials.
    If I press ESC to exit start up. I can hear the DVD ROM is running,
    but still not work. The screen shows as follows:
    Startup Menu
    F1 System Information
    F2 System Diagnostics
    F9 Boot Device Options
    F10 BIOS Setup
    F11 System Recovery
    Enter - Continue Start up
    Only F1 would respond when I press. Other Fn does not respond at all.
    Do you have clue and suggestion for me ?

    You do not use Fn + the key indicated.For instance to enter BIOS you simply tap F10. Recovery would have been F11, not Fn + F11.
    You can order Recovery Media from HP for a small fee>> Contact HP

  • Disc Read Error, Keyboard unresponsive

    After attempting to install Windows XP I have gotten the seemingly common Disc Error. The larger problem is that my wireless keyboard is unresponsive so I can not "Press any key to restart" or hold option to boot. I have even gone the length of purchasing an Apple Wired keyboard and I still can not get it to work. The system was purchased new about 6 months ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I had problems installing Windows XP before but after unplugging extra stuff from USB & Firewire ports like external harddisks and printer the installation worked.
    What kind of mac do you have if my suggestion don´t work.. by holding down the power button usually works to get computer to reboot. And then by pressing down the "Option" - key button you get to choose OS. Hope this is a answer.

  • My laptop has a disc read error.

    Is there anyway to fix it easily, and will i have to take it somewhere to get it fix and i'll pay?

    1Click "Start" or the Windows logo on your lap top. In the Start menu, click "Computer." You may also go to "My Computer" to access your drives.
    2Right click the drive (C, E etc.) that has the disk error. A pop-up window will appear. Select "Properties."
    3Click the "Tools" tab. Locate the "Error-checking" section and click the "Check Now" button. Click the check boxes for "Automatically Fix File System Errors" and "Scan For and Attempt Recovery of Bad Sectors."
    4Click "Start" or the Windows logo on your laptop. Allow Windows to diagnose and fix the disk errors. Windows will give you status-update messages during the process and report when it's completed the repairs.
     You most restart your PC.It may take several hours to complete!

  • Is Wamp for Win7 64bit good quality?

    I just finished migration to a new laptop which involved converting from WIN7 32bit to WIN7 64bit.  I went to download the 64bit version of Wamp but the user feedback wasn't very flattering.  There was only 1 user comment.
    Have others used Wamp 64bit and are there any issues I should be aware of?
    Thanks
    Tom

    Hi Nancy.  Glad to see your still active and involved in the forums.
    My question was very specific to 64 bit WAMP. I've been very happy with my 32 bit WAMP version.  What I want to know is whether to use 64 bit on my new WIN 64 bit laptop?
    In my original post I acknowleged that there was only one user comment on WAMP 64 and it wasn't very favorable.  One comment is questionable.
    Does anyone have experience with WAMP 64 who can help determine whether I should upgrade to 64 it or download 32 bit on my new laptop?

  • Connecting to HP LaserJet 5100 printer on Win7, 32bit PC from a Win7, 64bit PC

    I'm having a heck a time trying to add a printer that is on another machine. The printer is an HP LaserJet5100 and is connected to a Win7, 32bit pc using a pcl6 driver. The PC I want to add this other printer to is a Win7, 64bit. I went to HP Drivers and downloaded a HP LaserJet 5100 pcl6 driver for Win7, 64bit, and ran it, using traditional mode, on the PC that I'm trying to install a printer to. I chose "Add a network Printer..." and then pick the printer that I want to connect to.   I get a Windows Printer Installation pop up that says "Checking for Windows Update. This might take a while..." and then get another popup that says "No driver found". I then get another pop up to locate the driver. Browsing to the driver files that I just download, I find eleven files of the .inf file type, but none of them are the right file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Applicatio​n on Win7 64bit throws error -50103, but not on Win XP 32bit host

    LabVIEW application newly installed on Win7 64bit host throws error -50103.
    Same aplication deployed from same installation disk on Win XP 32bit host have been working for 2 years withourt problem.
    I did have a problem with importing the MAX configuration from the Win XP 32bit machine to the  Win 7 64bit machine.
    My solution was to install all the drivers from my most recent Devaloper Suite 2012 DVD.
    After that the executable did run fine, except when the variuos DAq tasks are executed for the second time in a loop it thows error -50103.
    If i click ok on the erro popup, everything else works fine until in the next pass of the loop I get the same error.
    Why would I get error on one host but not on the other one?
    How do I fix this?

  • .xlsm File use from Excel 2013 64bit/Win7 64bit to Excel 2013 32bit/Win8.1 64bit - Component Removed (not API related)

    Work Environment:  Excel 2013 64bit/Win7 64bit
    Home Environment: Excel 2013 32bit/Win8.1 64bit (1 desktop and 1 laptop)
    I am developing an an .xlsm file at work (with Lists and a single form with controls linked to a worksheet ControlSource). It works and saves all day long just fine in my work environment. I save the file to either a USB drive (or DropBox - makes no difference)
    and then open the file on my home computer. I can open the file the first time with no problem and with no error messages. But then when I try to save the file Excel 2013 32bit most often tells me that it has removed a component. But it doesn't tell which
    component it has removed. After that, if I close the file and try to reopen it, it won't reopen. I get a series of error message: [1] file path errors (error 75) [2] Excel has stopped working errors. [3] Excel hasn't enough memory to complete the operation,
    [4] Excel will close. So I click the close button on the last error message and Excel disappears. I say disappears, because its not really gone. Mind you, its not listed in the Task Manager at this point. But, if I then click the Windows Taskbar icon to start
    Excel, Excel will sometimes automatically open up with the file that I was trying to open before, already up and running, i.e. I do not select the file to open it - it just appears. Other time Excel just repeats the series of error messages noted above.
    The strange part is, once this file has been corrupted, I can still take it back to my work environment, fire it up on my work computer, and it works just fine. No error messages, no saving problems.
    I have totally uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2013 (HUP Click to Run) on both my home computers and it makes no difference.
    I can say though, this is driving me nuts. Anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

    I think I solved the issue.
    Step 1: Moved all my code from the Worksheet_Open event to the Auto_Open Macro.
    Result: File would open from inside Excel but when opening by clicking on the file in Windows explorer I would get the error msg "There was a problem sending a command to the program."
    Step 2: Apply FixIt 20074. Note that to get this FixIt to work in Windows 8.1 you MUST save the FixIt file to your desktop and run it from there. If you follow the instructions on the FixIt page - download and run - you will get the error msg "This Fixit
    does not apply because the computer does not have the expected software (Excel.exe)."
    Excel 2013 definitely seems to have some bugs when starting a macro enabled file. I have seen other comments on the internet about the Excel workbook_open event actually failing to run all the VBA commands that are put into it.
    Environments:
    [1] Home: Microsoft HUP Click-n-Run Office Professional 2013; Windows 8.1, 64 bit; Excel 2013, 32 bit.
    [2] Work: Enterprise Microsoft Office Professional 2013; Windows 7, 64 bit; Excel 2013, 64 bit.

  • CS5 Master Coll installs 32bit Photoshop on 64bit Win7

    I have installed a CS5 Master Collection on my PC with Win7 64bit. To my big surprise I found the 32bit version of Photoshop on my PC now.
    Before that action I had already Photoshop CS5 64-bit installed on this PC, I uninstalled it prior to the Master Collection installation.
    How to get this fixed? I've never been asked which PS version should be installed.

    On the initial install splash screen it shows a list of the CS5 programs, all are checked by default. If you simply select this the installer will in fact install both the 32 bit and the 64 bit.
    So, double check the program list to see if you do not have both installed.
    If not, you will have to try a reinstall for the 64bit. Or possibly unistall everything then do a reinstall.
    There are a number of plugins that will not run on the 64bit so I keep both installed.
