Bootcamp - Changed partition settings now Windows will not boot

Hi,
I suspect I've created a problem that I've made progressively owrse in trying to solve... Any help appreciated!
A month ago I created a bootcamp partition (about 850Gig OS X and 150Gig for Win7), successfully installed Windows 7 and everything was fine.
After an acciental delete of itunes media incident I thought I would create a Time Machine backup partition on the OS X part of the drive so used the Disk Utility to do so, making sure I "took" from OS X and not the Bootcamp partition. I now had three partitions: OS X (500Gig), a Backup (350Gig) and a Bootcamp (150Gig) (I now suspect some of you might be screaming I've created the problem here already...) noting that the 150Gig Bootcamp partition is still as it was and the diagram in Disk Utility has always shown it as the bottom section.
Perhaps I'm being naive here but it never occured to me that splitting the OS X partition would have any impact at all on the Bootcamp partition!
Anyway, now I'm unable to boot to Windows (black screen "No bootable device" etc message).
Checking Finder, all the files on the Bootcamp partition still seem to be there - User settings/accounts, Program Files, the lot.
Is there anyway I can easily rectify this? (eg put the Windows 7 disk in and repair the install or something?!)
I tried deleting the extra Backup partition I created without luck (the space just gets greyed out and unallocated)
Help! I really don't want to have to go through the whole mess of reinstalling Windows 7 on to the Bootcamp partition (that to my mind still hasn't been touched!)

Your Boot Camp partition number probably changed, Windows does not like more than 4 partitions, you had 3 + Lion Recovery and one that Windows makes, and that is one too many.
You can try running Windows startup repair from the disk, but>
Before you do anything make a backup (a clone, for speedier disaster recovery)
If startup repair fails then reinstalling Windows is called for, so while you are at it I would repartition the drive completely, put your Lion installation back on the Mac from your clone, make a new prtition in Boot Camp and reinstall Windows. Then if you have backups of the Windows side (Windows Backup or similar) restore the data.

It has and can be done but backup to the same drive is rather pointless, shadow copies and file revisioning... external and separate. I thought with Lion and notebooks that there already is a temporary hidden backup folder, hidden, check iwth Lion Comm. already.
Boot from Windows DVD and do some BCD magic to get it back.
You changed the partition ID number.
I wish we could be more flexible:
OS X
Windows
Data
so that Windows wasn't relegated to the inner slower platter tracks for one.
you can get it repaired.
Also, there are programs and even Windows 7 will create a system recovery CD and image... something you should be doing already so you never face loss or if a worm/mal/trojan/virus should cause havoc.

While most things in /dev are created on the fly you do need a console node and a null node to boot the system. If you boot a cd, mount the drive (eg /mnt/disk) and then
mknod -m 600 /mnt/disk/dev/console c 5 1
mknod -m 666 /mnt/disk/dev/null c 1 3
That might fix the problem.
The other times I've had kernel panics have been when the root=/dev/sda? bit of the kernel line in grub was pointing to the wrong place (kernel was looking at my /home partition and wondering why it couldn't find init) so thats another thing I would check.

I have reset my ipad using General Reset Erase All Content and Settings. And now it will not boot. All i see on screen is the Apple logo. What do i do?

When you restore, you can restore to factory settings or to a backup. Restoring to factory settings removes everything and takes you back to out of the box status and you start all over again. Restoring from your backup will replace all of your app data, bookmarks, email settings and things like that. You still may need to sync all of your purchased apps and music, photos and so on back to the iPad.
I assume you want to restore from your backup to put all of you data back on the device so connect the iPad to your computer, launch iTunes, right click on the device name on the left side under the devices heading and select restore from backup. After you restore from your backup, make sure that you sync all of your other content with iTunes.

HT3053 I removed battery without turning off computer, now it will not boot up or eject cd

I removed battery without turning off my mac book pro. Now it will not boot up or remove cd. I tried restarting with eject, spacebar, command e, option, trackpad, and f12 depressed, individually each time to no avail. I installed a 2 gb. ram kit and loaded OSX Snow Leopard after removing battery. I tried reinstalling the old ram with no luck..................Any help or suggestions would be welcome...........Thank You!

And you eject the CD by holding down the mouse/trackpad button before powering up; that is, before the startup chime.
BTW, if no startup chime or a different melody, RAM ist kaput.

Windows will not boot

Hi,
I got after couple of years perfect comp. an terrible problem. The Windows will not boot, i can start it only with CD or sometimes i am getting message: how I wish to start Windows . I already tried to repair it, but no success. In the event log I could see only one notice : Service Control Manager event 7026, but this I had before with perfect comp.
Thanks in advance

Hi guys.
here i foud the cure:
* Power off the PC
* Power off the monitor
* Disconnect all cables from the monitor (USB, power, etc.)
* Disconnect all monitor cables from the PC (USB, VGA, DVI, etc.)
* While disconnected, press and hold the monitor power button down for 3 seconds
* Reconnect the power cord to the monitor
* Reconnect the monitor VGA or DVI cable to the PC video card
* Power on the monitor if it does not power on by itself
* Power on the PC
* Once into windows, open the Device Manager (Press the Windows key and the Pause-Break key)
* Click the Hardware tab
* Click the Device Manager button
* Click the plus by Universal Serial Bus Controllers (notate what is listed)
* Connect the USB Uplink cable from the bottom of the monitor to a USB port on the rear of the PC
* Under Universal Serial Bus Controllers, you should see additional Generic USB Hubs
* This means the monitors USB Hubs were seen by the operating system

I took my iMac 2010 to a "Third Party" company to replace my hdd, they did, but now it will not boot. if i took this to the Apple store, how much would it cost to fix? if i buy my own SSD (£70) Thanks a LOT!

The way I read that comment – you seem to suggest the Mac was broken before the third party replaced the disk - is that the case or was it working before the HD was replaced?
Since the Mac is out of warranty you will have to pay for any repairs wherever you take it. Authorised Apple service centres will be able to get parts whereas any non certified technicians will have to use 'grey market' parts since Apple will not sell parts to the public. These may be reconditioned or not official parts - it's a risk to use them. Visit the Apple store & ask them - there is no point in lying about it being handled by a third party. An Apple tech may be able to tell when they open the case, depending on how meticulous your third party was.
If you are handy with a screwdriver & have tools and a lot of patience you could use a guide on iFixit.com, but there is no indication of why this Mac not booting up.
It could be that the disk is not formatted correctly.
Are you sure the tech copied an OS onto the disk? Did they install the OS for you or did they clone the old disk?
Can you boot from a backup disk or from an install disk? Does the disk appear in Disk Utility when booted from another OS (either the installer or a backup).
'Not booting' can mean so many things, what does booting do exactly? Grey screen, black screen, any noises or tones, any signs of life at all…?
If you look at the iFixit guides you will see many fiddly connectors, if the tech failed to hook them all back up it could explain the failure, or perhaps you just have a disk that is 'dead on arrival' - sometimes that happens. A properly trained technician should be able to figure that one out.

Windows will not boot GTX 770

Hi there,
I recently bought new MSI gtx 770 lighting edition LE. When i choose in uefi as a primary gpu - PCIe, windows will not boot, and after few seconds screen goes black. If i go with primary gpu as integrated in processor i am ok to boot even i can play on monitor connected to GTX770. When i ran passmark benchmark, i get for VGA 3600 points, againt average 6300. Is there something wrong ? Thank you. Motherboard Asus sabertooth z77, cpu i53470k. PSU 600W, 8GB ram...

Silly questions as this should be a no-brainer, but have you installed specific drivers for the 770 from the geforce website?

Tried to update Mac book pro to maverick now system will not boot

I downloaded the maverick update but something happened during the update and now my Mac book pro will not boot into the os. What should I do?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Windows will not boot to my boot camp partition on a DIY fusion drive - gives "No bootable device found" error

I have a MacBookPro 9,1 (mid-2012, non-retina) running OS X 10.8.2. Here is what I have done to my system:
Installed Windows 7 x64 Pro to a boot camp partition; installed all windows updates.
Using WinClone, save an image of this boot camp partition.
Removed optical drive and HDD.
Installed HDD in place of optical drive.
Installed SSD in place of HDD.
Booted to recovery partition, installed OS X on a flash drive.
Booted to flash drive, created fusion drive using [MacWorld's instructions](http://www.macworld.com/article/2014011/how-to-make-your-own-fusion-drive.html)
Booted to recovery partition on flash drive.
Restored system to fusion drive from a Time Machine backup. Unfortunately, it seems that because I never installed OS X on my fusion drive, I do not have a recovery partition. But that's an issue for another day.
Using Boot Camp assistant, created a boot camp partition on my HDD.
Using WinClone, restore my Windows installation from the previously created image.
Now, Windows boots to a black screen telling me that it can't find a bootable device. I have tried a few things to resolve this, all without effect:
I know that VMware Fusion has to prepare a boot camp partition in order to virtualize it, so I figured it might inadvertently fix things. Alas, while it *did* successfully boot my boot camp partition into a virtual machine, I still can't boot into Windows.
I figured I'd just try to reinstall Windows. Surprisingly, my system booted to my Windows install disc, which was in my original optical drive (which I had put in a USB case). But, Windows refused to install, giving me a an error 0x8030024. It seems the solution to this issue is to disconnect all drives but the one on which you want to install Windows, which is something I would dearly like to avoid. It would be a pain, but more than that, I'm afraid it would bork my fusion drive, even if I'm careful to never boot to OS X with the SSD disconnected.
A lot of places said that this error results from a borked MBR, and suggest using a tool like gptfdisk to rewrite it. I followed the instructions [here](https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4144252?start=0&tstart=0), but *that* didn't work either.
I am now completely at a loss as to how to proceed, and Google isn't much help either.
In conclusion, here is some information that you may find helpful:

My setup is very similar to your's, Ryan, on a Mac Mini5,2 and the ordering is different and Winclone was not used.
1. New Mini with internal 500GB with Mountain Lion(ML), put into an external FW enclosure, so the Mini can/could be booted using an external drive for contigency.
2. Replaced internal stock HDD (500Gb/5400rpm) with SSD/HDD (256Gb SSD/1TB 5400rpm).
3. Installed W7 x64 on 64GB partition on HDD, which was a single-partition drive to begin with.
4. The remaining HDD partition and the entire SSD was put into a Fusion drive.
5. Using Command-R, new ML installed on Fusion HD.
Here is what I currently have...(Disk0 - SSD, Disk1- 1TB HDD, Disk2 - Fusion, Disk3 - External FW).

Windows will not boot (SSD in optibay with OSX/Window, HDD in main bay for Mac storage)

Main bay: HDD for storage (Mac-formatted)
Optibay: SSD for operating systems
Version: OSX Yosemite
Description of issue:
I removed power from internal HDD so Windows install would work properly on SSD. I didn't think/realize that once it was installed and I plugged internal HDD back in that I would not be able to boot into Windows.
This is where I am now:

I had boot camp set up previously, but I think this may have been before I installed the SSD, and maybe I just had it running on the HDD.
I've seen what seems like this same issue posted many, many times, where it is an issue of Windows seeing a GPT partition/drive, so it won't boot. Is that not what's going on for me, too?
1. I have Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X v12.2.313
2. Yes.
3. I can only see the Mac partition (but when I hold option when booting, I can choose Windows from there. Will boot if HDD unplugged) :

Windows will not boot. Recovery media not working. Satellite L675D-S7052

I am using a Satellite L675D-S7052 with Windows 7. When the laptop is powered on, it will only run to the Windows loading screen (windows logo on screen) and will stop. The logo remains animated but it will not load any further.
I attempted to reset to factory settings using the recovery partition. It will run through "Windows is loading files" to completion, but it will then go to a blank screen with only the mouse cursor showing.
Finally, I attempted to recover from recovery DVD's I made previously. It loaded through the same screens as the recovery partition, halting again on the blank screen with the mouse cursor.
I backed up all important files on an external hard drive already. I was able to successfully boot an Ubuntu 12.04.2 live disk and it ran correctly. I can access the files on the hard drive for back-up from Ubuntu. I have not altered anything.
That's as far as I can go on attempting to fix this. If anyone can help me find my next step, please advise.

Hi! Sense you're not getting any replies, I will offer my opinion. Sense you can boot Ubuntu OS and it runs correctly,what else could be the problem but bad software?? You tried the recovery partition and the recovery DVD's and they reacted the same?? It's good that you can recover your important files. The recovery options are great, but a back up image on a external USB is your best protection. I just don't understand why people don't create a back up image of their OS. It's so simple!! When did you create your recovery DVD's?? Sense both recovery options act the same, I suspect corruption. That's the only thing that makes sense to me??
Dokie!
I Love my Satellite L775D-S7222 Laptop. Some days you're the windshield, Some days you're the bug. The Computer world is crazy. If you have answers to computer problems, pass them forward.

Aperture 3 installed, now MBP will not boot

I installed Apeture 3 and attempted to update the photo library. The computer locked up and after a hard reboot the computer will not start in normal or safe mode.

Hi fogtownjohn,
Try to do a PRAM reset.
Also did you try to calibrate the battery?
When plugged in without battery try to boot in safe-mode by holding down the Shift key after you hear the startup sound. While is safe-mode, repair permissions on disk utility.
After, Shut down the computer, insert the battery and try to boot.
If non of this works , then you have a faulty battery.
Call Apple and set up an appointmeny with a Genius.
Did your computer pass Warrenty?
Regards,
Andrew
