  • Windows 7 on Bootcamp I am locked into a DOS screen and it is not installing.  I have been on line with Apple and microsoft and they can't help.  I have lated versions of Lion and bootcamp. HELP

    I ran bootcamp and tried to install Windows 7.  I end up with a DOS screen and an unresponsive keyboard. 
    I have been on line with Apple and microsoft and they can't help.  I have lated versions of Lion and bootcamp. HELP!
    My Lion is up to date.
    I used the 64-bit windows disc.
    Should I try parallels?

    Do you have a DOS screen with a command prompt or just a blank screen?
    Is your Windows 7 x64 an original MS Full Version Installation DVD?
    Did Windows 7 Install Disc start?
    If it did you would have had to choose the location of where to install Windows 7.
    Did you select the Partition named BOOTCAMP that corresponded to the Partition Size you created in BootCamp?
    Were you asked to format the Partition?
    Did you format the partition to NTFS and then get an option to click NEXT and actually start the Windows 7 installation?
    Do you have a wired USB keyboard and wired USB mouse?
    If you actual went through the installation and restarted then here are some things to try:
    First try doing a CONTROL-ALT-DELETE and see if a Windows Option Screen appears.
    If you get the Screen you will have some options displayed.
    You want to highlight and click TASK MANAGER which should be the bottom choice I beleive.
    If Task Manager runs you will get a window showing all the processes running.
    See if you can find EXPLORER.
    If EXPLORER is running highlight it and go to the bottom right and click the END TASK button.
    Now go to the Top Left Menu Bar.
    Click FILE
    In the sub menu that opens select RUN  or RUN NEW TASK (Not sure which it is in Windoes 7 as I am running Windows 8)
    Once RUN is selected a new window will open to CREATE NEW TASK
    Type in EXPLORER and then the OK button.
    If Windows 7 installed properly the Desktop should appear after a bit of time.
    Your first concern is to get your keyboard running so you may have to remove and reinstall Windows using Boot Camp on the Mac Side.
    Let us know how it goes..

  • Bootcamp question in respect to gaming (Starcraft 2 and Heroes of Newerth)

    Hi, I have a 2010 Macbook Pro. Ive been playing games on it since I got it, and its gaming performance has deteriorated somewhat. Although at first it was decent, now its very obvious that the laptop is struggling to keep up with the graphics. I play Starcraft 2 and Heroes of newerth. On Heroes of Newerth I can put the settings on moderately high with few problems, but not with everything cranked up. Seeing that my 4GB ram is twice that of the system requirements Im wondering if bootcamp will help. I was also wondering if bootcamp affects my laptops performance in terms of video and graphics. The same for Starcraft 2, except I can barely run most settings on Medium with alot of the extra effects and settings off and it still gets fairly choppy during big fights. The graphics card is an Nvidia Geforce 320m. Is this something I should be asking on the Starcraft 2 and Heroes of Newerth forums?

    I don't know how much help I will be.  I do know that a lot depends on what version of Windows you will run on the Bootcamp partition.  I used to run XP Pro SP3, which only sees a portion of the RAM, 3 gigs I think.  I would assume the newer 64bit versions of Windows would work better.  Good luck.

    I forget security question, help me recover?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • About Java 2 opaque font color question, help needed!

    About Java 2 opaque font color question, help needed!
    I was trying to test opaque font (the string has a foreground color and a background color), but i can't find the method for doing that.
    i can change foreground by Graphics2D.setPaint(Color.black).
    Anybody know how to change the background of the string?
    Thanks!

    Hi. The way I'd do it would be to use the font metrics to find the length of a string and draw a rectangle and then drawstring over the rectangle. If you want an example, I can post it although I suspect theres a better way.

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within, I think, about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

  • Bootcamp Question? Should I update bootcamp before installing Vista SP1

    Hi,
    I am about to install Vista SP1 on iMac, Leopard 10.5.4.
    About a month back, there was a bootcamp update that had been posted on support download website. The question is; Do I need to install the Update before installing Vista or is that needs to be done after the installation of Vista?
    Thanks for the help,

    The update is consists only of new device drivers for Windows XP and Vista. There are different updates depending upon whether you install 32-bit XP, 32-bit Vista, or 64-bit Vista. So Windows must be installed first, the original drivers included on the Leopard DVD should be installed, then you can install the update in Windows.

  • Installing windows 7 on bootcamp questions?

    So because I'd like to be able to play a few games on my iMac, I've decided to install windows 7 in bootcamp and have it as a second operating system to use when I play games.
    However, I have some questions.
    1) In every tutorial I've seen, at some point they say enter your mac OS cd, but my iMac didn't come with a cd? (As I got my iMac a couple of months back) What do I do at this stage? Or do I not need the mac OS on cd anymore?
    2) Is there a chance if I don't do this properly that I could mess up my machine?
    3) Can I do this with an AMD radeon graphics card?
    4) what exactly do I do if i get the 'blank screen' problem? I've seen varied responses for this.. I have the latest iMac so i might have to do something different.
    I'm probably making this sound way more complicated than it even is..
    Thanks for any help in advance though!

    You are reading old tutorials. Run the BootCamp program - on the first screen there's an option to print instructions. Do so. It answers most of the questions you have.

  • (not) another bootcamp question!

    Hello,
    Well after reading many posts and seeing the repetitive nature of them I find myself reluctant to add to the list...
    However... Despite my trawling and repeat attempts keep failing dismally! So appologies in advance at asking what I am sure is a repeat question!
    My Aim is to install drivers for camera and sound card for Windows 7.
    I have an iMac mid 2007 running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Boot camp v3.04
    The steps taken so far is this:
    1. Ran apple software update (no results returned)
    2. Opened Bootcamp and selected option to install from disc (the option to download drivers returned an error cant remember excatly)
    3. Created a partition 200gb
    4. Installed windows 7 on partition
    Now windows seems to run perfectly with the exception of the sound issue and missing drivers for the camera, peformance counter & usb input device.
    The issue I have is I no longer have the Snow Leopard disc, after reading previous posts I have downloaded multiple versions of bootcamp, 3.####, 4.#### & 5.####. When I run the setup.exe it comes back with an error saying "this version of bootcamp is not intended for this computer model"
    One thing I have recently read is that in Windows there should be a boot camp icon on the start menu tray, this doesnt seem to be there and when I navigate to unistall programs it isnt there either, could this be a potential sign/issue?
    So anyway, I am looking for some kind of a solution to the problem, if anybody can help?,

    Well, I have now managed to succeed and thought I would share the simple solution with anybody that may be having a similar issue.
    This page will help identify what version of bootcamp to download:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
    It will also take you to the download page so you get the correct verision in my case 4.4033, run the installer and it should install drivers for everything!
