BIOS error on reboot after installing iTunes/Quicktime

Installed QT first, to correct first error I got when installing iTunes. Have QT on C drive, installed iTunes on E drive - since it takes up gobs of space and I only have a 10GB for my OS, antivirus, etc. I run all apps from my E drive. No probs until this happened. I get an error that says that bios is not installed and to press [g] to continue. I do this and it boots normally into windows, BUT my E drive has now gone missing. I know I'm returning this God-forsaken device, but I have to get my PC back to normal. Please help!

This is where you should really be posting this:

Why not try installing iTunes and QT both on your C: drive and see if the problem stops? At least it gives you a starting point. You can keep your iTunes library on E:

  • ITunes Error 7 (Windows error 127) after installing iTunes 64-bit for Windows

    After installing iTunes 64-bit for Windows (latest build), I get an error pop-up saying:
    iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes
    Error 7 (Windows error 127)
    I've gone thru the uninstall, reboot and reinstall process three or four times now. Still nothing.
    Furthermore, after clicking okay to the error, it continues to pop up on it's own every 45 seconds or so.
    There was one other error I came across after trying to launch iTunes after installation.
    See both error messages here:
    http://screencast.com/t/DSg4PpKF5BeX

    Brilliant. Thanks a lot. I've wasted a couple of hours on this nasty bug, & trying all the other suggestions across various threads again and again.
    I now find I had the same registry entry hanging on, despite uninstalling & wiping everything again and again. Having now deleted this key, (I don't even have an iPod), & iTunes 11.1.14 now opens at long last.
    But WHY is this bug not fixed? Enough people are suffering with this across the forum. WHERE is Apple support on this?
    It should have been added to their page at 
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    by now, why hasn't it???
    It's not good enough!
    Re:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDlls]
    "C:\\Program Files\\iPod\\bin\\iPodService.exe"=dword:80000000
    AHA! This entry for iPodService.exe still exhisted.  So I had no folders on the PC, no installs on the PC and no services running.... BUT this was still in the Registry.
    Step 5 - Delete only the Registry entry above.  NO REBOOT
    Step 6 - Reinstall iTunes64.exe

  • Fix for VBScript Error When Installing iTunes/Quicktime on Vista

    With GREAT THANKS to http://www.keathmilligan.net. I was able to fix this problem by performing the following steps:
    The iTunes/QuickTime installer will fail with a "VBScript not installed" error on some installations of Vista. I'm not sure exactly what leads to this situation as it does not seem to affect all Vista users, but there is a relatively simple fix:
    Click Start, All Programs, Accessories then RIGHT click on Command Prompt and select "Run as Administrator"
    change directory to your windows\system32 directory
    enter the following command:
    regsvr32 vbscript.dll
    This will re-register VBScript and allow the iTunes installer to run.
    After almost pulling my hair out for a month, this worked like a charm and I was able to install iTunes/quicktime with the latest version and get to hear my music again after a month of trying everything. THANKS KEATH

    Issue was very happily resolved with great thanks to Keath http://www.keathmilligan.net/node/139

  • Error 0x800736FD when installing iTunes + QuickTime

    Well, I finally caved. I bought my first digital portable media player. The people on the street were throwing things at me, and my doctor said he might have to operate my shoulder. The boombox had to go!
    So, I'm trying to install iTunes. My Dell machine came with an "Apple Software Update" program installed. It's been bugging me to install iTunes since I got it, so this time I clicked OK and let do its thing.
    The automatic updater "Apple Software Update" is trying to install "iTunes + QuickTime" version 7.4.3. It goes through the download phase OK, then starts the installation. After about 10 minutes (wherein the installation has not progressed in the last 9 minutes), an error message appears in a separate window:
    iTunes + QuickTime
    (X) An error has occured during the installation of Microsoft.VC80.CRT,publicKeyToken="1fc...",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.762" ,processorArchitecture="x86". Refer to Help for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736FD.
    Has anyone seen this before or know how I can get around it? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Have you tried downloading iTunes yourself and installing it manually?
    You can download the iTunes installer from here:

  • After installing itunes 10.5 itunes wont open it says i have an error , i need help so i can update my ipod , HELP!!

    after instaling itunes 10.5 i cant open itunes , my pc says its an error . . what do i do  ?

    In order to download iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8, you have to buy OS X 10.6. It's available from the online Apple store, in the US by calling 800-MY-APPLE, or online here.  After OS X 10.6 installation, run Software Update until there are no more updates available, at which point you'll be at OS X 10.6.8 and can install iTunes 10.7.

  • After installing itunes 10 installation was successful but then tells me error 2 (windows error 2), After installing itunes 10 installation was successful but then tells me error 2 (windows error 2)

    After installing itunes 10 installation was successful but then tells me error 2 (windows error 2).

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Svchost.exe errors after installing iTunes 7.0.1.8

    I have two computers that starting throwing svchost.exe errors immediately after installing iTunes 7. First it happened on my desktop. In preparation to reinstall Windows XP on my desktop, I prepared my laptop to use while my desktop was out of commision. I installed iTunes 7 and immediately I started getting svchost.exe errors. I don't have the blaster worm on either machine (already checked). My desktop is behind three firewals, runs Norton, and I already did a full virus scan on both.
    This is causing significant problems as my computer can't see the network, outlook can wig out, and in general my machine is unpredicatable. I hate to think that installing iTunes 7.0 leads to the need to reinstall Windows. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate any help.

    I changed my "Startup Type" for "Terminal Services" from "Disabled" to "Manual". Resolved issue.

  • After installing iTunes 10, external drive error

    The library which the previous iTunes 9 was connected to is on my external WD 2TB drive. After installing iTunes 10, I played around with the interface for a few minutes, and then I shut my computer off.
    This morning, I turned on my computer and my external drive loaded up. But when it opened iTunes and started reading, the external started to be read, and it ejected automatically... and error window popped up warning me that it wasn't ejected properly.
    From then on, this kept on occurring. The drive loads up but after a few minutes it gets ejected again. I don't know what happened.
    I checked with Disk Utilities, and there was zero problems.
    Could someone help me with this problem? I have changed to different firewire cables from very short, to long etc but still the same issues. I don't want to keep doing this as it might corrupt all my data...many years of of collected photos, music, movies etc...as well as a major part of my work files.
    This is so sad, and I just wished I bought a second drive to clone the one I have. Lesson learnt.
