Can I boot into a PC laptop on an iMac using Bootcamp through a eSATA to Thunderbolt connection?

Can I boot into a PC laptop on an iMac using Bootcamp through a eSATA to Thunderbolt connection?  Work forces you to use their computers, but it would be nice to use an iMac and extra displays while at home.

Set up a VNC connection between the computers.

  • Can I boot into Windows XP from a firewire enclosed Hard Drive? Boot Camp

    I understand you can install XP (as long as it has service pack 2 or 3) on an Intel Mac using Boot Camp, but I was wondering if it would be possible to take a HD from a PC computer which already has XP installed, and, using an firewire HD enclosure, boot the Mac into XP from that. Would this be feasible?

    Yes, but not exactly. The page says:
    "Can I install Windows on an external drive?
    No. Installing Boot Camp on an external hard drive is not supported."
    But I don't want to install Windows, I want to boot my computer into it.
    It also says:
    "External FireWire disks are not recognized by the Startup Disk control panel in Microsoft Windows. To start up from a bootable external drive, press and hold the Option (Alt) key while the computer starts up, then select the external disk."
    I don't mind if external disks won't appear under Windows, as long as I can still boot into it.
    I found another helpful post:bootcamp windows 7 Firewire external drive NTFS?
    Here someone writes:
    "I still use Windows XP with my Mac but still never had such a problem with my two Firewire external HDs (one FW400 and one FW800).
    And I did a lot of things with these
    Partioned one for use with OSX and Windows (one HFS+ partition; one NTFS partition); copied my complete MP3-collection (180GB) from one external HD to the other; etc.
    All without any kind of glitch or slowdown."
    So it seems this person was successful in booting XP from an external drive. Windows 7 or Vista on the other hand will encounter problems booting, which that tread explains.
    In another thread (Boot camp on an external hard drive) someone wrote:
    "I believe there might be a way, I just haven't gotten around to trying this out.
    1) use disk utility to partition the external drive to ntfs (i think)
    2) attach this disk to a pc and install the OS
    3) install refit onto your mac
    4) attach the drive via fw800, or even better yet esata, to you mac.
    5) Start up your mac
    6) choose the win xp option from the boot menu
    7) install bootcamp drivers
    this seems, in theory, that it should work."
    So from what I gather, I think this method would probably work, I just want to know if anyone had any specific knowledge regarding this subject.
    From here I only have two questions:
    Is it possible to take a working drive from a PC which already has XP installed, and change the format to ntfs under OSX without damaging the drive or OS?
    And, would I need a version of XP with service pack 2 or 3, or will anything do, since we are not installing it with Bootcamp, we are only running it under Bootcamp at this point.
    Thanks for any help!

  • My 2007 Intel Macbook Pro had Tiger 10.4. Can I boot into that drive,now an external, with my 2011 Macbook Pro?

    I have software that is no longer compatible with my 2011 MacBook Pro that I would like to continue to use.
    When I upgraded my old 2007 MBP from Tiger to Leopard, I did a clean install on a new drive, and put the original internal in an external case.
    This same software did not work with Leopard, but I could boot into the old drive when necessary, and use it that way.
    But so far, I have not been able to do this with the new computer.
    Since that MBP had an Intel processor, shouldn't I be able to boot into the old drive, or is the problem due to the i7's quad core?
    BTW, I have Parallels 7 (and 8 available, but not installed yet) running WIndows Pro 7.
    Can I use Parallels to install Mac 10.4 as a VM as a way around this?
    Thanks.

    You can upgrade from10.4 to 10.6 with no problems. Any program that runs under 10.4 will run under10.6 but you might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc....  I recently upgraded an 2006 MacBook (model 1,1) from 10.4 to 10.6.
    You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least1gb of RAM and 5gb offree space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY You won't need the box set unless you want the full iLife '11 and iWork '09. If you only want iPhoto or other single apps you can get them from the App Store after you've upgraded to10.6.6. iPhoto, iMovie or Garage Band for $15 each and Pages, Keynote or Numbers for $20 each.
    A 10.5 Leopard disk will run you over $100

  • Can't boot into Windows 8.1 partition after apple store repair

    Can't boot into Windows 8.1 partition after apple store repair
    I went to the apple store about a week ago to get my screen fixed, and when I get it back I don't have an option to boot into my windows partition. The bootcamp partition is still there, but I can't boot into it. I can still see all of the files on the drive. When I try to boot into windows from the startup disc setting I get "no bootable device — insert boot disk and press any key” on a black screen. I went in for a dead pixel, and the guy at the genius bar ran something on my computer and went into disk utility application. I’m not sure what he was doing, but obviously that’s what messed up my windows partition. How can I be able to boot back into windows? Here's what disk utility looks like on my computer.

    Here's the output

  • Hi, can anyone help with the problem I am having with pro book 4440s? I can't boot into windows 7.

    Hi, can anyone help with the problem I am having with pro book 4440s?  I can't boot into windows 7, nor can I enter the bios cause i fogot the password. the error I am getting says "windows failed to start. a recenr hardware or software change might be the cause.   it then gives me options to boot from a disc but I can't do that cause I am unable to get into the bios to change it to boot from a disc.

    Please help.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If you don't already have one, use another PC to create a Windows 7 Rescue CD.  Download the relevant ISO from the links below.
    Windows 7 32bit
    Windows 7 64bit
    You should use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here.  Once created, or if you already have this, tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu.  Insert the Rescue CD.  Select Boot options ( usually f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter.  You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.
    When loaded, select Repair Your Computer and choose the Command Prompt.  When this loads, enter the following commands and hit enter after each one - include spaces as shown.
    Bootrec.exe
    bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
    c:
    cd boot
    attrib bcd -s -h -r
    ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
    bootrec /RebuildBcd
    bootrec /fixmbr
    bootrec /fixboot
    Remove the Rescue CD and try rebooting the notebook.
    Regards,

  • Can't boot into windows 7 anymore......

    Hi all, I have a Mac mini late 2012 with windows7 installed through bootcamp5. It has worked flawless until recently, now I can't boot into windows anymore. I've checked in finder and the bootcamp partition is present and also all the files. Before that, I did have some trouble with my LaCie 2big thunderbolt hdd, it kept on saying I had to reformat one of the discs in the drive, but only when used in windows, in OSX there was/are no problems reading the hdd .......
    Any idea of how I can make windows bootable again?, do I really have to make a fresh install of windows to make it work??
    Any help is very much appreciated
    Kindly

  • Can't boot into anything after EasyBCD's "Write MBR"

    After upgrading my windows 8.1 install to windows 10 about a week ago (week ago), I decided that I no longer wanted the Windows/Ubuntu dual boot I had setup. So, in an attempt to delete GRUB and set the bootloader back to the windows bootloader, I downloaded EasyBCD and fiddled with it a bit before finding the "Write MBR" option. I figured that would allow me to boot directly into windows, or at least delete Ubuntu's GRUB Bootloader, so I could use one of my many windows install DVD's to set the bootloader to a windows one. Unfortunately, I'm an idiot, and after doing that, I can't boot into anything. I've tried everything I could think of or find on Google to get it to boot into absolutely ANYTHING. I've tried boot into every one of the boot options, including the main boot menu, but none of them load. instead, it shows me a loading screen that displays some mobo info as if it were loading a boot option I selected, but it hangs there. Maybe it was just taking its sweet little time right? Wrong! I let it sit for hours, still nothin'. HP has a "solution" where you hold the windows key + B for one second as you start up the pc, and it should start a bios recovery. Feeling hopeless, I tried it, hoping that it would do SOMETHING. Of course, it didn't boot into that either. Just a black screen. Finally, I learned that sometimes problems like this could be cause by hardware issues, and a lot of the times its the hard drive. I highly doubted that it was a hardware issue seeing as I bought this PC late last year (around November or December of 2014) but I removed the hard drive just in case and started my computer. Same result. FML. Can someone, anyone, help this poor idiot get his baby up and running again? I don't have the money or the confidence in their abilities to give it to Geek Squad or anyone else for that matter and let them have a go at it, so i'm depending on the internet ((

    but if my PC's bootloader or something related is messed up, can the neosmart forums actually help?not trying to be rude or anything, i'm genuinely curious. you see, i cant really load anything, including any recovery disks or USB's, which is why i was hoping that there would be some sort of HP utility that could help me restore my PC back to its previous state. i'll still ask the neosmart forums though. i'm pretty desperate to fix my PC at this point!

  • Client boots into WinPE but then it will fail and reboot after the step: "Preparing network connections"

    I  have a new issue with all DPs.
    When I pxe boot, it will boot into WinPE but then it will fail and reboot after the step: “Preparing network connections”
    I have tried reinstalling the DP and MP. Also redistributing the boot image.
    When I press F8 to go into debug mode, ipconfig show me an IP address and I am able to ping my Management point, my DHCP server and also my Distribution point.
    I have attached the smsts.log file.

    Every time a query is sent to the MP, it receives 0x80072ee2 which translates to "The operation timed out". This has nothing to do with your MP or DP though so reinstalling them won't make any difference.
    This error is indicative of network issues -- basically, the "client" is not getting a response back in a timely manner (and probably not at all). Assuming the MP is healthy though, then only other piece of the puzzle is the network.
    You can try setting the SMSTSAssignmentsDownloadRetry and SMSTSAssignmentsDownloadInterval task sequence variables in the boot image to increase the client's tolerance for latency or other weirdness in the network. This has worked for many.
    If that doesn't work, you'll have to break out a sniffer and watch the traffic to see what's going on at a network level.

    Apple doesn't monitor here. Best we can do is to push you to contact Apple directly.

  • I have a Macbook Pro (2013) OS 10.8.1.  Moved into a university house and need to use ethernet cable. Bought the Thunderbold connection but when I try to use the ethernet with it a webpage comes up saying Wireless Setup? No idea what to do.

    I have a Macbook Pro (2013) OS 10.8.1.  Moved into a university house and need to use ethernet cable. Bought the Thunderbold connection but when I try to use the ethernet with it a webpage comes up saying Wireless Setup and Router Setup? I have previously used ethernets in similar situations and never had to input information like this?

    I have tried to turn of the wi-fi but that doesn't work either. I think it could be a something to do with the internet provider because virginmedia comes up on the webpage. This is what comes up:
    Wireless Setup
    WGR614V9
    V1.0.11_1.0.1VGUK
    Wireless Setup
    Name (SSID):
    Security Passphrase (WPA-PSK):

    any ideas?!?

    The manual is no help. Neither is FAQ's.    
    Thank you.

    Yes, if you're talking about the photos in the camera roll.
    Plug it in and open iPhoto. It should appear like any other digital camera.

  • Can't boot into Windows??

    Hi!! This is my theory about not being able to boot into windows. If you have made a system repair disc like you should have made on day one; and your PC will not boot with the system repair CD, you probably have some serious hardware problems.
    I'm going to steal this reply from cee64 again. A system repair CD can be made from any PC that is running W7 ect.
    Hi I'm going to steal this reply from cee64. I'm sure he won't mind!
    "It is quite possibly the hard drive is failing or has failed.  The reason you can't get into the bios or boot from a CD/DVD is because the bios it hanging trying to recognize the hard drive.  Try removing the hard drive and see if it will allow you into the bios or boot to a CD/DVD.  If it does, go the hard drive manufacturer's support site, downlod their hard drive diagnostic ISO image, then use the burn from image option to create the self booting cd, then boot to it and run the most exhaustive diagnosis on it if it will boot.  If you can't get it to boot to the diagnostic disk while the hard drive is installed you'll more than likely need to replace the hard drive. 
    If it won't get you into the bios or boot to a CD/DVD with the hard drive out of the system you need to try reseating the ram.  If that doesn't help you probably have a bad motherboard.  In this case it would more than likely be cheaper to just replace the laptop than fix it."

    If Seatools found your HD good, then you have a good chance of using the recovery disks or the recovery partion to restore you back to factory setting. If that fails, you may be down to a bad motherboard. I know of no program to test the MB. You can use memtest 86 to test your Ram. I think it tests some parts of your MB, but can't say that for sure.

    Hi! I stole this reply from Jerry Edited One link, because it failed to open
    Let's start here. The spec above says your machine came with 32-bit Windows Vista. Have you changed it?
    We need to reach the recovery environment. Can you do it this way?
       http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-happened-to-the-Recovery-Console
    If not, burn a system repair disc from this download (assuming 32-bit Windows).
       Download Windows Vista Recovery Environment ISO X86 version (32 bit)
