Blue screen after upgrading to boot camp 3.0 (snow leopard)

after updating my vista ultimate 64 to the latest boot camp drivers, i experience a blue screen right before logging in (5 seconds after the password requester appears), the error is "systemserviceexception" i tried to uninstall all the apple stuff in safe mode, but boot camp itself and the updater can't be uninstalled, i also tried to start from a fresh copy of vista, installing as the first thing bot camp, same blue screen.
So i reinstalled and updated to sp1 and other patches, then boot camp, and got blue screen... now i am installing selectively only the drivers i really need from the SL dvd, i am tired to reinstall.

  • Mac Mini mid 2011 Windows 7 64 Bit crashes to blue screen after install of Boot Camp Drivers

    Hello.
    I have installed Windows 7 64 bit on my Mac Mini mid 2011. After the install, I install the Bootcamp Drivers and then after the restart it starts to load and then crashes. Is there some trick to get it to work, It runs fine if I do not install the drivers, but not much works on it.
    Thank you in advance for any help.

    Hi,
    Same thing here - but on Mac mini mid 2010...
    I have installed the newest drivers downloaded via Boot Camp Assistant 4.0 (from Lion 10.7.1) on Windows 7 64-bit but the updated graphic driver causes my both screens (monitor - MiniDisplayPort and TV - HDMI) to go black, and eventually computer restarts or freezes.
    I did some checks reinstalled whole windows, narrowed search to graphisc drivers and can confirm that up to BootCamp version 3.3 (nvidia ver. 19x.x) everything is fine but drivers from Boot Camp 4.0 (nvidia ver. 26x.x) simply render Windows 7 in 64-bit variant useless.
    I look forward to some sort of solution or update from Apple as soon as poddible...!!

  • My iPhone 4S no longer syncs after upgrading from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard 10.6.3

    y iPhone 4S no longer syncs after upgrading from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard 10.6.3 - any solutions out there?

    Thanks - got stuck with the upgrade to 10.6.8, but Apple Support was able to navigate me through that, the date settings caused a problem here.

  • Windows 7, Boot Camp version and Snow Leopard?

    Hi folks, I have a 2009 quad Mac and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. The questions I have are:
    Was the upgrade to Boot Camp 3 automatic?
    If not what do I need to do to upgrade that?
    How do I tell which version of Boot Camp I have?
    Is the update for Boot Camp yet ready for Win 7? I read that an announcement was made yesterday of an update, but not sure it was released.
    I wouldn't dare install Win 7 on my old XP PC Laptop, but I need to check web pages for my design work, and looks like Win 7 may become the standard as opposed to Vista on newer PCs.
    I am also running Parallels 4, don't know if updating bootcamp will mess up that install... or functionality.

    Okay, Boot Camp assistant, I get. I guess I was mistaken about the meaning of Boot Camp? When I boot into Windows on the installed XP system in my computer on its own partition, is Boot Camp involved in any way like an operating system or software platform foundation like DOS allowing Windows to operate, or is Boot Camp just for setting up a partition in the first place? I guess I'm wondering why Boot Camp Assistant 3 needs to be upgraded to allow the install Win 7, if I could just boot into Windows and run the upgrade in Windows? Does that make sense why I'm asking the questions?

  • Blue screen after upgrades - 3000 J115 7387-A32

    I recently upgraded the graphics card and memory on my Lenovo 3000 J115 7387-A32.  After the memory upgrade I noticed that when the computer booted it would 1) go to the blue screen, 2) automatically reboot, 3) boot normally to windows vista. 
    I upgraded the Graphics Card from an onboard Nvidia 6100 to an Nvidia 8500 GT pci expressI completed this upgrade a couple days prior to the memory upgrade and noticed no issues when booting the computer.
    I upgraded from 1 gig (2 x 512 mb) of memory to 4 gigs (2 x 2g) ddr2I did notice that the bios system summary notes the memory as 2.5g while the vista - control panel - system notes 4g, but based on the other posts that seems to be a 32-bit OS limitation and should not be causing the blue screen.
     After the computer boots normally, it acknowledges that it did not boot properly and offers to find a solution.  It notes that the problem is due to the NVIDIA nforce serial ATA driver (which as far as I can tell is not related to either graphics card?) and takes me to the NVIDIA site.  I scan my system for both graphics and motherboard, and the results of both scans are that I have the most up to date drivers available.
    I did update my bios through this process.
    It does eventually boot up and seems to be working fine, but the blue screen shouldn't occur and I would like to prevent it if I can.  I would appreciate any help on this issue.

    what are you specs cause i also had some bluie screen errors b4 ( didnt upgrade anything at that point)..and btw i am also looking for an upgrade on a graphics card...i found couple but i have no clue how much my lenovo 7387 can handle (in terms of power supply) can you please help me out here...

  • 10.5 server blue screen after upgrade

    Hi there,  I just upgraded my server from 10.3.9 to 10.5 server. The installation went fine but after the restart all I get is a blue screen. I left the machine alone for about 15 minutes before I booted again. In safe mode I can enter name and pass but nothing happens even after 3-5 minutes. 10.5 Server is on the same partition as 10.3.9 was. What am I missing?

    Never mind. I booted again in safe mode, entered my log and pass and went out for a few hours. When I came back 10.5 Server was up and running. Checked permissions and booted again in normal mode. All is well and I ran all available updates after checking permissions every time. Now I'm busy setting up new services.

  • "Blue Screen of Death" in Boot camp on Macbook Pro i5, Windows 7 64

    Hi there,
    when running bootcamp I get BSOD (0x0000007F and automatic reboot) about 5 or 10 times a day.
    I am running Windows 7 64 bits, and I have tried with different Nvidia drivers (260.99 and 257) but the problem always comes back.
    What can I do? Is this a common problem?

    Most likely, Apple HFS read-only, which is AppleHFS.sys and AppleMNT.sys - rename those and see.
    You might want to run chkdsk after all this to make sure there are no errors with the drive and file system.
    Windows Explorer will not accept HFS+ filenames with special characters and will "green bar" and hang when it does, too.
    The faulty HFS driver is a valid concern.
    Rename AppleHFS.sys and AppleMNT.sys
    By doing the following you will disable HFS mount / read mode on windows XP, Vista, 7.
    Navigate to c:/windows/system32/drivers/AppleMNT.sys, rename the AppleMNT.sys file to something like AppleMNT_keep.sys or something of your likings.
    The faulty HFS driver is a valid concern. It seems to happen on many systems.
    You find it in Windows/system32/drivers/AppleHFS.sys
    Renaming to AppleHFS_disabled.sys will avoid the blue screens until you have found another solution or Apple updates Bootcamp 3
    After renaming both myself because they are no longer "*.sys" or something? they are gone. In my case AppleHFS prevented Windows Backup from running to end and was causing error "some files skipped" and while some might find reading convenient, I prefer Windows not have even read-only access.
    You can probably do better with MacDrive, or probably Paragon's HFS driver, to read AND write if needed, to HFS from Windows.

  • "No bootable devices" screen after Windows 7 Boot Camp failure.

    As a lifetime Windows user, I thought that it would not be such a bad idea to install Windows 7 via Boot Camp Assistant.  The process went smoothly until I reached the 3rd and final section of the procedure titled "Install Windows 7 or Later Version."  I adjusted the MacOS and Windows partitions and proceeded to the final reboot.  It is then where I was greeted with a Windows 7 screen tht stated something along the lines of "No bootable devices. Insert boot disc and try again."  I have tried the Boot Camp Assistant (Same exact steps I used initially) and have yet to defeat the dreaded No Bootable Devices screen.  I would really enjoy having Windows on my device so any help would be GREATLY appreciated.  Thank you!

    Hmm, I had an 8 GB flash drive connected to the compter at all times.  When just using the "Install Windows 7 or later version" feature, shouldn't the flash drive be conncected throughout the duration of the procedure?  And I may not be using the correct vocabulary but when I was referring to "adjusting the partitions" I meant the section of the procedure where the user selects how much hard disk drive space is granted to each OS.  The response is much appreciated!

  • Imac stuck on Blue screen after upgraded to 10.6.8 combo

    Hello,
    I been using imac since 2007, I started upgrading my imac this week from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I want to get mountain lion so I was doing the final upgarde from Snow Leopard 10.6.7 to 10.6.8 and it was almost completed the install when my screen went black. I shut down the computer and when it rebooted the screen stayed on blue and it's not moving. The wheel is spinning on the screen like it searching for something. I try to reboot in safe mode not doing anything. I don't have the original Tiger 10.4 disc that the iMac came with, all I have is the Snow Leopard disc that I just purchase to do the upgrade. I am stuck and I don't know what to do at this point...HELP!! Can anyone confirm if there is an issue with the Snow Leopard upgrade 10.6.8 combo. I downloaded it from the apple support site.

    Hi, there is no problem with the combo10.6.8 for 99.99999% of the people.
    Do NOT attempt to use a Tiger/10.4 Disc to repair anything even if you had one.
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X 10.6 Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    If it still reboots to the blue screen, reinstall 10.6.x
    Then the big 10.6.8 Combo...

    Repair Permissions afterwords, reboot.

  • Custom icon for Boot Camp partition on Snow Leopard desktop?

    I have a Boot Camp partition (NTFS) with Windows XP. In Snow Leopard, the partition shows on the desktop with a generic hard drive icon. I'd like to change this to a custom icon, but when trying to paste over the generic icon in the Get Info window, Edit->Paste is grayed out.
    In Leopard, it was possible to have a custom icon for a Boot Camp partition by formatting a thumb drive as FAT32, pasting the custom icon onto it in the Get Info window, booting into Windows XP, and copying two invisible icon files from the thumb drive to the NTFS drive. This would display the custom icon for the Boot Camp partition icon on the Leopard desktop. This doesn't work in Snow Leopard.
    Is it possible to use a custom icon for a Boot Camp partition on the Snow Leopard desktop?

    I don't see this option in Properties for the Boot Camp volume. In any case, I believe the custom icon is set correctly for the C: drive in Windows. I followed he procedure in the second paragraph of my initial post, which I learned from a post over a year ago. I copied the two hidden files .VolumeIcons.icns and ._ File _ to the C: drive. When I boot into Leopard, the correct custom icon for the Boot Camp partition appears on the Leopard desktop. But when I boot into Snow Leopard, only a generic hard drive icon appears on the desktop for that partition.

  • Fonts are slightly off position after upgrading to new Mac OS X Snow Leopard

    I just upgraded from a Macbook that was using OS X Tiger to a new Macbook with OS X Snow Leopard. Now, when I open my flash files on the new computer, they are rendering the fonts slightly differently and off position. I am using the same software (Flash CS4) and the same font library. Anyone ever encounter this problem? Is there a fix for this? Thanks so much!

    You are lucky they are only slightly off!
    It seems that there is a serious problem with how the new Snow Leopard is reporting font metrics to all programs. Those from Adobe (particularily the ones for layout type like InDesign) seem to be the most affected.
    I saw somewhere that it had something to do with some version of a Helvetica or HelveticaNeue font and that apple had give there font the same internal name as a different one and that was causing the problem. Some folks seem to suggest that replacing/removing the offending font worked. Others saw the problem mitigated, but not removed.
    As far as I know the only solution is to go back to regular Leopard. But if you have a new machine that is most likely not possible.
    Sorry.

  • My Macbook will not boot the operating system.  It just goes to a blue screen after the apple logo and the spinning wheel goes off.  I took the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM.  I have the old mac os disk.

    My macbook will not boot.  It goes to a blue screen after the logo and wheel goes off.  I have taken the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM.  I have the the original os disk but have not put it in for fear of losing un backed op data.
    Thanks

    You won't lose any data unless you erase your hard drive.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c"key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it.When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've selected the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
