Bootcamp "no bootable device" error while trying to install win7 on imac

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to install my original copy of windows 7 on my iMac 21,5 mid 2010 with mavericks as os.
This is what i do:
With my dvd of windows inserted in my cd/dvd reader I open bootcamp, i make the usb with drivers, i make the partition dedicated to windows and then the iMac restarts automaticcally.
When the iMac boots up a black screen (windowslike) appear saying : "no bootable device insert...etcetc and press any key"
First of all i'm using an external dvd reader because since i've upgraded to mavericks my superdrive stopped working (another big issue i've found out these days).
Then i've also tried making an usb bootable device....same black screen appeared.
I've been searching on the internet for days now without luck.
I believe i've tried everying but this funky situation keeps occourring.
I need to say that I installed windows on my iMac in the past and everything worked just fine, more then fine!
I need help please because i need windows on this machine due to working deadlines.
I'm desperate.
Help.

Error while trying to install SAP CE 7.1 EHP 1 on Windows 7

I am trying to install SAP CE 7.1 EHP 1 on Windows 7. I am getting below error while trying to install. can you please help to fix this problem?
Running msiexec failed with return code 1603: undefined
Commandline was msiexec.exe /norestart /L sapmmcX86u.log /i sapmmcX86u.msi /qn
If you want the installer to retry, choose Yes. If you want the installer to abort the installation, choose No.
Thanks,
Sridhar.

I donu2019t think so it is windows 7 or 64/32 bit hardware/software issue. I have faced u201Cmsiexec failed with return code 1603u201D error many times during SAP installation and solved this issue with below mentioned procedure.
Solution:
Just change the location of temp directory to empty folder in user environment variable without cancel installation in current user session. After that, click on yes button to continue the installation. If installation will ended after click on yes button, restart the installation with continue old installation option.
Regards.

Error while trying to install Oracle 8.15 on Redhat 6.1

I have been trying to install Oracle 8i (8.15) on my machine but I got an error while trying to run runInstaller:
Initializing java virtual machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre. Please wait
Error in CreateOUIProcess(): -1
: Bad Address
FYI:
- I downloaded the Oracle 8i from the technet download site (I am not using a CD)
- I am using Redhat 6.1
- I downloaded and installed JRE as advised in the documentation.
- My machine is a AMD K6, so is non-intel but I have not noticed any other problems using Redhat.
- I currently only have 96MB RAM as opposed to the recommended 128MB.
Please Help!!!
null

(All comments are based on redhat 6.0, not sure about other distros)
If u are only using one linux machine, then I don't think you need to have 'DISPLAY' defined. Unset it then. This variable tells X clients where to display its X output. If unsetting does not make it work, then try 'export DISPLAY=ip_address:0.0' and then 'xhost +ip_address', where ip_address is the IP of your machine, or try 127.0.0.1.
If u have two linux machines, like what I did:
* Ran X on client machine (192.168.0.2).
* Telnet to server machine (192.168.0.1 - where 8i will be installed), login as 'oracle'
* On the telnet session, I 'su' as root then mounted the CD, then 'exit' to return to the 'oracle' login on the telnet session.
* On the telnet session, I did 'export DISPLAY=192.168.0.2:0.0' - telling it that all X clients on this telnet session will send its X output to the host on 192.168.0.1.
* On the client machine (where X is running), opened another shell, did a 'xhost +192.168.0.1' - telling the X server on the client machine to accept X connections from the server machine (192.168.0.1).
* Went back to the telnet session to the server machine, then ran the installer.
In short, everything you do can be done remotely, apart from putting the CD on the server machine.
The installer runs on the server but send its output to the client.

1603 error while trying to install skype

I'm having an issue while trying to install Skype on this computer, when I try to install it, it pops up and says "Object Already Exists" and then I get a second window saying "Error 1603 has occured: Fatal Error During Installation." I had Skype and it told me I needed to update so I clicked it and I've been getting this message ever sense. I tried to find Skype to uninstall it but after clicking that update the program was gone. So I went into Program files and deleted all skype related things and tried to download and install again. Got the same message. Please help!

You have to reboot for that fix to work. If you already did this then for whatever reason the solution didn't work on your machine (possibly due to some other corruption). The issue you are having is not Skype based but Windows/OS installer based. Try to install the latest Windows updates to see if that will fix the issue as newer Windows updates were designed to address that problem. If you have already tried that then remove the problematic Windows updates that causes this issue on some computers.

Error while trying to install WS2012 R2 Essentials evaluation copy

While trying to install (Setup.exe) the evaluation copy of Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials which I downloaded from the Microsoft site, after clicking on install and the temporary files start to unpack, I received the following error:
Windows cannot open required file C:\Users\Donald\Desktop\Windows Server 2012 Essentials\9600.16384.WINBLUE_RTM.130821-1623_X64FRE_SERVER_SOLUTION_EN-US-IRM_SSSO_X64FRE_EN-US-DV5\Sources\install.wim. Make sure all files required for installation are
available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x8007000B
I checked in the sources folder and install.wim is present. Should I suspect the file is corrupt? This was extracted from the downloaded 9600.16384.WINBLUE_RTM.130821-1623_X64FRE_SERVER_SOLUTION_EN-US-IRM_SSSO_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5.ISO file.

Hi,
As Dave mentioned, maybe the ISO is corrupted. Please try to download it again to see if the issue persists.

No Bootable Device Error when trying to bootcamp!

Hey guys I have been trying to bootcamp on and off for the past month or so now. Anyway I downloaded a windows 7 x32 bit iso from Microsoft's website. I then used Burn to burn it to a disc by doing: Copy> Dragging the image in> Mount and then right clicking on the image on the desktop and clicking burn to disc. Not bootcamp itself worked fine, a bit slow, but i managed to make a 100gb partition. Now whenever I try to boot into windows, I get the dreadfull "No bootable device - insert a bootable device and press any key"
I know the .iso is valid because i succesfully made a Parallels V<M with it, but parallels is too slow for skyrim.
I think its also important to note that I have using an external optical drive, since my dad got gum in it XD.
Anyways help is VERY MUCH appreciated! If you need anymore info, just ask.

Okay so I found a similar tutorial, only a little more detailed. This can be found here: http://www.andrewsavory.com/blog/2011/2156
So I follow the instructions to a tee, but when I try to start the installation of the VM, I get a "Missing Operating System" Error.
Anyways Heres what I did:
Went to terminal and typed this in:
mkdir Virtual\ Machines
/Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmware-rawdiskCreator print /dev/disk0
Then This:
/Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmware-rawdiskCreator create /dev/disk0 3 windows7 ide
SO I enter those right in terminal as is and hit enter. Then I search using spotlight and found two files:
windows7-pt.vmdk and windows7.vmdk
So I follow the instructiopns again and I think I might be messing up at this step:
" You’ll then be taken to the Customize Settings screen, where you want to configure the ISO to boot from. Click on the CD/DVD (IDE) option [...]
And then select the location of your Windows 7 ISO:"
SO I choose my windows 7 x32 iso FIle and just close the window. Am I missing anything?

Ntfs/mbr error while trying to install windows 8. PLEASE help!

Ok so before I explain anything I beg you to PLEASE not tell me I haven't read/searched enough for this because I'm already very close to throwing my macbook pro down the window and regretting it after a second!
Here's what's happening:
I have a Macbook Pro late 2011 (15 inch).
-I downloaded and prepared a USB bootable Windows 8 file.
-I used bootcamp assistant to create a new partition
When I turn on my laptop pressing the ALT key and choose to boot from eh EFI USB partition. I get asked to install Windows 8 and write down the product code.
Now, here's when it gets annoying:
1) I get the error saying that I cannot choose that partition because it's not an NTFS formatted partition.
There's NO advanced options link on the bottom right corner. However, I can clearly see the Format button and when I choose the Partition and click format I get a new error saying ''Windows cannot be installed to this disk. the selected disk has an MBR partition table.''
So, I downloaded a software that formats the partition to NTFS using Disk Utility. However, when I restart, I will get the ''MBR..'' error again.
2) Concerning this second error (in case it was finally NTFS), I found another solution and that's the procedure of clicking ''SHIFT + F10'', choosing the partition disk from there and manually converting it to GBT or what ever that was.
Problem: When I manually type ''list disk'', there's only ONE partition showing as 495 GB (my laptop is 500gb) which obviously means that I'm not going to choose that and convert it to anything because it's the whole hard disk and not the bootcamp partition.
I closed the window and continued to see if I had forgotten to do the partitioning well, but once I got to the installation, my bootcamp partition was there in the partition windows, still giving me an error for MBR partition table.
So, please, I've restarted my laptop 50 times so far trying different ways to fix this, I've erased, formatted and divided the hard disk 1000 times and if I'm not mistaken that's really not something you wanna keep on doing to your laptop.
ANY help will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
invisible hugs to anyone who wants to help me.

I had modified the bootcamp info.plist file to be able to prepare the USB separately, I had done this step last year and had no problem back then, also it works for so many people so I don't know why not for me. Anyway, I modified it back to how it was originally... and well, unfortunately still not working.
This will not work, as you have already found out. BCA sets the NVRAM based on Model Identifier to boot from the Optical drive for Macs that are supposed to have built-in Optical drives. It works for people because there are a few select models which support both, for example my 13-in 2012 MBP. It is an urban myth that it works. What is the issue with your Optical drive? Did you codesign it properly (you need the --deep qualifier)?
The only resolution I know of, is to re-install OS X to get the BCA package back, if it does not work - OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support.
When BCA restarts by itself after all the steps, I get the no bootable device message. And if I open it using the alt/option key which works fine, I get stuck at the step where I can format the partition to NTFS but I get the error mentioning the MBR partition table...
It is expecting to boot from a DVD in the Optical drive. Please try the DVD method. Make sure you reset NVRAM and SMC. If necessary, delete the current partition using BCA only, and start over again.

Access denied error while trying to install graphics drivers

Hello,
I have a new toshiba laptop P70-A. I have installed windows 7 and the pc was working excellent up until now. Noticed yesterday that the nvidia automated system failed to install the new update. When I tried to install the new driver manually, even from the
device manager, I got the access denied message.
A day now wasted reading all the possible causes and solutions but with no luck. Read all the forums and all the posts, tried almost everything. Below youll find everything I tried as a solution and failed.
1.Disabled UAC
2.Enabled the administrator account and trying to take control from there
3.Run the subinacl and the reset.cmd
4.Tried manually to take control the folder windows (and access denied while changing the rights)
5. Scanned the system with everything there is available ( Kaspersky, MalwareBytes, RegCurePro, Tuneup Utilities, CCleaner) The system came out clean.
6. Tried restoring the system to an earlier time (got again access denied error code 0x80070005)
7. Checked all the group policies (all seem to be fine)
8. Run a script to take immediate ownership over all of C:
TAKEOWN /A /F C:
then the next one
TAKEOWN /F C:
9. With subinacl I run all the above scripts... (still nothing changed)

Hello,
Thanks for the replies, i much appreciate it. I tried all of the above with no luck again. Safe mode allows me though to install drivers but thats reverting the moment im entering windows. Im always running commands and programs as a administrator or in
the Admin enabled account.
It seems the problem is solved today. Via tune up utilities I disabled most of the startup programs and services and it seems that 1 service is causing this issue. Although I havent played much with the disabled services but 3 remain to be checked. One of
the three is causing this.
Thanks again guys and Ill keep you posted about the soft. conflict.

Error while trying to install printer on Airport Express

Hi,
I'm trying to install a HP Deskjet 3930 on my Macbook through the Airport Express. I'm getting an error:
An error occured while trying to add the selected printer Error:-9672
Anyone have any ideas?

BINGO!!
After trying every driver possible (and there were many...), I finally got my HP Deskjet 3930 to print through Bonjour. Here's how:
1. Reset the printing system with Printer Setup Repair from fixamacsoftware.com
2. Add a new printer with Printer Setup Utility
3. Select the HP 3930 connected through Bonjour
4. Instead of using the default HP driver, select the HP PSC 1110 Foomatic/hpijs driver (available at http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/)
I've tested the printer on a variety of print jobs and so far everything seems to be working smoothly. I should probably note that this driver does not grant access to the printer utilities, but at least it works.
Hopefully someone finds this useful.

hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 5
The same lines appear for usb 4-1, 6-5 and 7-1. The only USB device that is plugged in is the USB key that I booted ipxe.lkrn from.
Googling seems to point to a kernel module that needs to be loaded earlier or a faulty USB controller. I do not know how to change what kernel modules are used during installation, and I'm fairly certain the USB controllers are fine. Its a brand new motherboard and I can access my USB key fine (I can boot from it) in any of the available USB ports.
I was close to giving up until for some reason I decided to try and install the 32 bit version of Arch instead. This worked as expected and I am sent to the archiso installation prompt without seeing any of the same USB errors.
Can someone please assist me with this? I would really prefer to have the 64 bit version installed.

This seems to be related, although my errors are giving error -32 instead of -110.
Is there a way I can force the installation environment to use kernel 3.7.6? Does the 32 bit installer use a different kernel to the 64 bit installer?
Is there a way I can use the 32 bit installation environment to install 64 bit as well as the 3.7.6 kernel?
