Big problems. cant install windows xp

Hello.
I was playing BF2 as i did 200 hours on my HW, then i get a bluescreen.
Cant load win again after this.
Ive tried change the disk to a IDE disk, but same problem.
I bougth a new mainboard(had 915p) 945p but still same problem.
I changed cd-roms, gfx-card, PSU, same problem.
I have 4x512mb GEIL DDR2 533mhz ram. Tried to use one and one. same problem with all 4.
HW:
PSU: Termaltake 410w
4x 512mb DDR2 ram. 533mhz.
MSI Geforce 7800gtx (tested Geforce 6600 as well)
MSI 915p mainboard (bought a 945p in hope to solve the problem)
P4 3,2ghz 2mb emt64
Sata raptor 10000rpm(also tried a IDE disk)
So from my point of view its either my cpu or ram the problem is.
Is it possible that all 4 of my ram is broken?
What happens when i install win xp is that when it comes to starting win setup, i get the bluescreen, or it just stays there.

I used a formatted disk yes. both IDE and SATA.
Been running memtest on a single stick and all 4. Looks fine. no errors.

Hi Andreas,
Please specify your hardware and software. Running OSX? Which version? Old hardware/new hardware?
It is not sure what your problem is: is it that the CD will not eject? Or is it that the winbdows cd is not installing?

A lot of problems after installing Windows XP using Boot Camp on a Mac Book

I have been having a lot of problems after installing Windows XP Home Edition (2002).
For one, after installing Windows using Boot Camp with Mac OS X 10.5.1, I opened Windows on my Mac Book, inserted the Mac OS X Disk 1 as in the instructions and got the message: +"This package requires a newer version of the Windows installer. Do you want to update the version of the Windows Installer on your system?"+ When I clicked Yes (I had NO idea what it meant at the time), I got the message: "The required resource 'UPDATE' is missing" and the Installer quit.
How do I fix this problem?
Another problem I have is that there is no sound on the Windows XP, yet it works perfectly on Mac OS X. Is there any way to fix this problem?
A third problem I have is that I can't wirelessly connect to the internet using Window XP, yet I can on Mac OS X. I have no idea on how to fix this, and it's really messing with me. D:<
D: There are way too many problems, and I have a feeling there will be a lot more later on. Help....

Hi, Im new in this forum, so sorry for my bad english
I have a problem which is killing me... today I bought new Transcend SSD370 256GB hard drive. I write windows 8 to bootable usb drive. When I launched setup, choosed custom installation, then it shows just one drive with unallocated space almost 256gb, when I try to push button next for instalation I get error "we couldnt install windows in the location you choose. please check your media drive. 0x80300024 ." then I tried to creat new partition but got error " we couldnt create partition". I tried google fix for this, I tried use cmd and diskpart comands to do clean on disk 0 , but got error " diskpart has encoutered an error: the request could not be performed because of an i/o device error". intresting thing that I put this SSD to other laptop (asus) and after 5minutes windows was fresh installed... and then when I put SSD with windows that was installed on other laptop I got error that disk is unreadable or some disk error and suggestion to do ctrl alt del for reboot... both laptops ar on ACHI and UEFI is disabled... I dont know what to do next.... Im so depressed... any ideas how to install windows?

ok, yesterday I tried somthink... first I tried install ubuntu on ssd and its worked, ubuntu worked fine. So then I tried again to install windows, I run setup, it showed me 3 partitions that ubuntu made, so I delete them and just pressed next with unallocated disk and boom it showed me istallation progress... but stuck on first step of copying files at 0%... so no windwos... I waited for like 20mins then pressed cancel, it gave me next screen that installation canceled and I was unable to turn off setup... so I just powered off laptop. and then... I cant connect my SSD, my laptop was unable to start at all with that SSD, when I connect it with usb adapter it just stuck at recognizing it, I cant to format it nothing, its like SSD is bricked... I tried again install ubuntu on ssd but installation gave me input output error, so yeah.... now I think its just left to me bring it to the warranty... ;(

Problems after installing Windows 7 Professional on Thinkpad T61

I have an old T61 that had Windows Vista installed. I wanted to use Windows 7 but didn't want to wipe out what I already had (for various reasons). So I bought a new disk drive and did a clean install of Windows 7 Professional. The disk drive is a Western Digital Blue Notebook 1TB drive. After installing the drive in the machine, I followed these instructions to install Windows 7: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-74108. I chose to partition the drive into a C: drive (500GB) and a D: drive (431GB). After the install completed, I downloaded all the available Microsoft fixes (this took some time to complete).
For the Device Driver and Application install, I used the ThinkVantage System Update option. The site indicated that Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 with Service Pack 1 or later was required. I downloaded and installed version 4. There were additional Microsoft fixes for version 4, which I downloaded and installed also. Then I downloaded and installed ThinkVantage System Update 5.03. I then executed System Update and selected all the available updates. They all installed, except for Windows 7 Update Module KB2615763 64bit. This update, after failing, gave the option to install manually but when I click on that option I receive a pop up saying: Installer encountered an error: 0xc8000247. The title of the pop up says Windows Update Standalone Installer.
I then attempted to install various applications on the machine: FileZilla FTP Client, Google Chrome, Notepad++, PrimoPDF were all installed without problems. When I installed a Cisco VPN Client for 64 bit machines, however, I was knocked off the network. Clicking on the WiFi symbol in the task bar showed that I had only limited connectivity to the network. I tried to do a IPCONFIG /ALL and neither the WiFi adapter nor the Ethernet LAN adapter showed up in the list. I uninstalled the VPN Client, from the Control Panel, and was immediately able to connect to the network. An IPCONFIG /ALL now showed all the network adapters. I installed/uninstalled the VPN Client several times just to make sure that it was causing the problem of no network connectivity.
I fgured that there might be updated network adapter drivers available to resolve the problem so I attempted both System Update and Windows Update again. System Update showed nothing available, except Windows 7 Update Module KB2615763 64bit. Windows Update had a message saying "Check for updates for your computer" but when I clicked on "Check for updates" it popped up a message saying "Windows Update cannot check for updates because the service is not running. You may need to restart your machine." I checked and the Windows Update service is running. I stopped and restarted it but received the same message when I tried to check for updates again. I rebooted the machine and tried Windows Update again. Same pop up message.
I tried the "Fix problems with Windows Update" option in the Control Panel but received a message saying - An error occurred while troubleshooting: A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting. The error details say:
Package ID: WindowsUpdateDiagnostic
Path: Unknown
Error Code: 0x8E5E0247
Source: Engine
I tried some of the other troubleshooting options and they all give similar errors - An error occurred while troubleshooting: A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting.
I then thought it might be a disk drive problem so I tried to do a CHKDSK /F but when the machine reboots the CHKDSK seems to start (there is a message that says it can be interrupted by pressing a key within 10 seconds) then, before the 10 seconds are up, it ends without checking the disk and the machine continues to boot up.
Has anyone seen any of these problems before? Did I miss something? Could this be related to the disk drive? Or missing device drivers? Bios?
Any help with this will be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

A laptop drive that size is almost certainly an AF drive. You can check by looking up the model's specs on the vendor's site. You can also use the fsutil command to check the drive's physical sector size and verify that the size isn't getting reported correctly - which is what usually causes the update problem.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982018
Expand the "Issue 6 Fsutil.exe tool" entry in that link for more info. The entire KB may also be helpful.
If my guess is actually the problem you won't have to reinstall Windows 7. Just update - or roll back - the driver. You might first try going to Device Manager, selecting the storage controller, and rolling back to an earlier driver.
If that works, configure ThinkVantage System Update to not show the offending driver, or this will happen again. If that doesn't do the job, go to Intel's site and find the latest Matrix Storage Manager or Rapid Storage Technology that is specified for your chipset and operating system. Or just try the latest and if that doesn't work, try earlier ones.
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Software+Products&ProductL...
Here's a local KB addressing this (presumed) issue: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-7-Knowledge-Base/Windows-Update-Fails-After-Installing-New-Hard-...
To repeat, this is a bit of a guess. It's pretty likely that your storage driver is the culprit. Either you need one new enough to support the physical size reporting ioctl, or you've been bitten by TVSU "updating" to a buggy driver. Either way the corrrect driver should fix things.

it like this.Windows would not start.It comes to login screen and freezes there.So I started to install windows from scratch.I did this before 2 times and there was no problems.
Both harddisks were connected as one on promise ide3 via raid,array 1+0.So i put winxp cd and restart.First problem is i dont get a message if i want to start from cd(i used to gei it before).The install just starts.And it goes find untill first restart.then it restarts and dont ask again if i want to start from cd but just starts from cd and starts install from begining.
Then i desconnected harddisks,removed raid in bios,and connected only on hard to ide2.
I start the pc with winxp cd in and it again dont ask me if i want to start from cd but it only starts,goes good untill first install ,then restarts and instead of continuing install start all from begining.
If i remove the cd sometimes i get ntldr is missing but sometimes i get nothing.pc just restarts.(I tried to install win here maybe 15times untill now).
I tried to put harddisk in another pc and install windows there but i get the same problem.
I reformated hard and check for errors ,no problems found.
I took everything out from pc leaving only nesessery parts ,still the same problem.
So now i just dont know what to do anymore?
I sit with this problem 10days know and have tried everything i could come up with.
Hard is formated with ntfs.Could that be a problem?
Hard is 150gb.Is maybe that the problem?
I say again i have to same harddrives ,samsung 150gb ide.Tried changing them but still the same problem.
It would be very nice if somebody could help me.
Thank you

-checking up boot devices,starting install program from cd(not asking me to press the button.starts right away).checking hardware configuration.
-tell me to press F6 if i want and i do it
-after this part finish i load promise fasttr drivers from floppy succesffuly and continue install
-choose only harddisk showing to install winxp
-format drive(ntfs quick format.have done before normal format also)
-when it finish, install loads files to drive
-then it tell me that pc needs to restart and it will continue install upon restart.press enter to restart now or wait untill this bar comes to an end.
-then it restarts and goes through boot,check promise bios(same as before),check for boot devices and then starts install program from cd all over again from the begining.
-install goes good untill the first restart and then again starts all over again.
if i remove cd it tells me:
disk read error

on board promise ide as raid
ddr clock 400mhz
cpu bus clock 200
Just to mention something else also:
I have 3 different winxp cd's and have tried them all so its not the problem with cd.
I have also tried to put harddrive to my older compaq p3 and install win there but i got almost same problems.Also when i connected to my old compaq system as secondary ide it works good but each time when i connected it and disconnected it reports that harddrive is not formated.From my past experience with other hd's it was not like that.So could it be that harddrive is not good.Its few moths old,and i have 2 exactly the same samsung harddrives.Have tried both of them getting the same problems with both.(There is only one harddrive connected to the system now to be clear)
Can you suggest me some good program for checking harddrive for errors?I have used the one from windows,is it good enough?
Well thank you for your time and your help.
Have a nice day!!!

Problem to install Windows 7 with Bootcamp

Hi everyone,
I know there's already quite a few discussion on it but...
I'm desperate... After few days trying to install Windows 7 I'm asking for some help.
I checked soooooooo many forum, tried sooooooo many stuffs, install and desinstall sooooooooo many programs and nothing works...
So I have a Macbook Pro 13" (2009)
Model Identifier:          MacBookPro5,5
Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:          2,53 GHz
Number of Processors:          1
Total Number of Cores:          2
L2 Cache:          3 MB
Memory:          4 GB
Bus Speed:          1,07 GHz
Boot ROM Version:          MBP55.00AC.B03
When I install bootcamp it works and restarts the computer by itself but I ALWAYS have a problem here.
First scenario : black screen and white cursor
        Nothing happens; have to switch off the computer; press Alt to choose Mac partition.
   2. Second scenario : same BUT screen displays "No bootable device, please insert CD and press any key"
        Same
Have to precise that when Bootcamp create a partition it is empty; no file in it. My co-worker told me that Bootcamp is supposed to create files automatically...
I'm really desperate, I try all the key words on Google, download a lot of softwares and nothing works!
Thanks a lot!!!!

Cant install Windows 7 on MacBook Pro running snow leopard.

I just got a shiny new Macbook Pro and i tried to install Windows 7. I partitioned the drive using Boot Camp assistant and proceeded to install Windows 7. Windows 7 Installation started and then it said it cant find device drivers for CD/DVD drives. Since my Windows 7 disk was stuck inside the drive at this point with no way to eject it, i took the Leopard installation disk and connected it through a external USB DVD drive. Then was able to browse the DVD and look at the Bootcamp drivers. But pointing the windows installer to all the directories still came up with "No device drivers found". Though, my leopard installation disc has a folder called x64 drivers etc... Any suggestions ?
Thanks.

1) BootCamp .rtf at root of Leopard disk:
Double-click setup.exe, in the root level of this disc, to install the following:
• Boot Camp drivers, which allow you to use your Mac-specific hardware with Windows, including your Apple keyboard, mouse, trackpad, and built-in iSight camera. For more information on Boot Camp, see <http://www.apple.com/bootcamp>.
• Remote Install Mac OS X, which allows MacBook Air users on your local network to install Mac OS X using a Mac OS X installation disc in your computer's optical drive. For more information, refer to the MacBook Air User's Guide.
• DVD or CD Sharing, which allows MacBook Air users on your local network to use your computer's optical drive. For more information, refer to the MacBook Air User's Guide.
If you can't find the MacBook Air User's Guide, download it from <http://www.support.apple.com/manuals>.
For more information on installing Boot Camp, restart your Mac in Mac OS X, open Boot Camp Assistant (in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder), and click Print Installation & Setup Guide.
2) You can eject without having right click by clicking desktop Computer icon which opens Windows explorer and a view of drives C:, E;(likely your cd/dvd.) if you highlight this with mouse cursor, you can Eject from column above drive icon.
Using Windows Explorer, In the Boot Camp Folder on the Leopard disk is Setup.exe Running this should install Bcamp & drivers for you.
For me autorun at leopard disk insert has 3 icons to select from; for boot camp installation is third or one on the bottom. Maybe you don't see it due to screen resolution setting.

Monitor calibration problems after installing windows 8.1

I have a hp envy m6-1105tx and right after installing windows 8.1 my monitor changed completely.
When i have a photo open in photoshop tones, colors luminosity, gamma etc are all wrong. Before i never had problems, when i looked at a photo in photoshop and i will see the photo on a different screen it would be basiclally identical but now the photo in photoshop is much different than the actual photo, and this doesn't apply only to photoshop but to everything. I already try to do the calibration through the control panel but it didn't improve the situation, is there a way to get the screen back to the way it was before?
Thanks

Wehodancer, welcome to the forum.
I checked for an updated driver for the video, but there is none for Win 8.1. Therefore, I suggest installing the original driver for the video to see if it helps. It may be that it was corrupted during the update process.

(OS X Lion) cant install windows on HD with multiple partitions

I have installed os x 10.7 lion the day it rolled out from the app store and everything was good. But now, I decided to re-install windows 7 on my macbook on lion. I currently have 2 partitions: 1 for media files and the main partition for the os files. But I cant use boot camp because it keeps on notifying me that i can only have one partition so I could install windows through boot camp. Is that the thing with lion, when I was able to do the same with snow leopard?
Now, I figured that I could not really do anything about and decided to install windows on a single partition and everything went well, though I am still sick that I had to copy everything on one parition.
My next question is: how come that after everytime I get to install windows, the partition does not recognize it anymore after I try to divide the mac partition on disk utility? Here's the scenario, I am able to install windows properly, so I boot to the lion parition and divide it into 2 through disk utility (making the total number of partitions to 3), so I could have one partition I could access both on windows and lion, but after that, when I try to boot windows, the system does not recognize the boot camped anymore. Do I have to stick with just 2 partitions(1 for lion and 1 for windows)? Or there is something wrong with my windows installation?
I am certain that I do not erase the windows partition as I can still the files on that partition through the finder.
I am in need of serious help here. Please.

Greetings,
Use Fusion, or Parallels. They are better for running Winblows, and you don't have to reboot in to it, you simply run Win 7 as an app. I have tried Boot Camp, a few times since it first came available, and it has always been cumbersome, and problematic, to use, and allows typical Winblows issues to happen. Running Win 7 virtual seems to not have those same issues.
Until I retire, soon, I still have to use Windows, along with Macs, Linux, and UNIX, but after that, it all goes, except for the Macs - no more headaches.
Give Fusion, or Parallels a try, they are cheap, and work really well.
Cheers,
M.

Crazy problem after installing Windows 8.

For years I had my EA4500 without single problem. And then I had to reinstall windows and I decided to select Windows 8.1 sinse then I can't connect to the router. I still can connect to work router, router at StarBox and Macdonalds and phone tethering WiFi and basically all AP and Routers but my home router. All other devices still work okay. Like my ipad and phone. This thing is driving me crazy. I can't understand why in the world by installing Windows 8 router decided to decline me of service. When I press connect I see message "takes longer than usual to access" and nothing happens.
We Got What It Takes

Typically this is due to driver issues in Windows 8. Sometime removing the adapter and letting Windows reinstall it works and other times a driver update is required.
