Can't boot into Windows after installing with Boot Camp

So I installed Windows 7 on a separate 70GB partition using Boot Camp. Everything seems fine, but once installation finished and the computer restarted for the final time, the computer shows the blinking "_" on the black screen and then promptly reboots and this cycle continues without end.

please re-post in the more appropriate Boot Camp forum

Can't boot into Windows after splitting Mac partition with Disk Utility

Hi everyone,
I installed Windows 8 with BOOTCAMP, creating a large 871 GB partition with a smaller 127 GB partition for Windows. After installing Windows, I then went back to Disk Utility to shrink the Mac partition and add two new partitions, one for storage and another blank, hoping to use it to install Linux into one day.
I did that, and now Windows doesn't boot. A Windows blue screen tells me I need to use the Windows DVD to repair it.
I tried to use Disk Utility to delete the two new partitions I made and grow the Mac partition back to the max size of 871 GB. But it doesn't let me do this. The Disk Utility log doesn't report an error and thinks it worked but the partition stays the same size. However if I make the partition a little smaller, like 870 GB then it works. I'm wondering if the Recovery partition is hiding there and preventing me from fully expanding the Mac partition.
What can I do?

Kappy,
I can boot into OS X just fine so if possible, I'd like to avoid reformatting everything. If you know of a way I can add more than 2 partitions with OS X and Boot Camp, please let me know. As far as I know, rEFInd can recognize more than two partitions, but I don't think it can edit partitions on a GPT / hybrid MBR system. Or am I wrong?

MSI GE620 can't boot to windows after installing CoreCenter 2.0.6.8

I have made a very huge mistake by installing an overclocking software without knowing anything about overclocking :(
Here is what I have done
- I installed CoreCenter version 2.0.6.8, after the installation finished it ask me to reboot the system, so I reboot.
- First my system won't shutdown it tell be that S-Bar (an toolbar that come with my GE 620 laptop) prevent me from shutdown, so I hit force shutdown. Then the system started to shutdown but it stuck at windows logo (Shutting down screen) so I hold down the power button to force turn off
- Windows gives me an option to boot into safe mode (because I hold down the power button and it is unexpected shutdown), I hit start Windows normally
- It goes into a Windows logo screen like normal, but it won't boot. It's just stuck at the Windows logo screen. At this time I tell myself "OMG what I have done!???"
- I try most option in a boot option (not sure what it called, it's a menu brings up when you press F8). I tried boot into safe mode, safe mode with cmd (both stuck at loading disk.sys), repair system, enable low res (640x480), last known good config, Directory service restore mode and debugging mode. None of them are able to boot.
- I grab a Windows 7 Ultimate repair disc that I have created long time ago. And.... "Oh no! It even cannot boot into a repair disc!"
- I give a Hiren's BootCD 15.2 a try. I boot Mini XP from that disc and..... It can't even boot XP from the CD.
- Ok Ok, maybe it mess something with BIOS setting, I press DEL into a BIOS setting (I believed) and hit restore all setting to default. Unfortunately, my system still won't boot.
Any idea of how I can uninstall this CoreCenter or any clues that what it have done to my system?
The only thing I know for now is just re-installing Windows, but I need to backup some data in C:/ first. I think I can install windows without formatting and backup some data and re-install it with format.
My system information
MSI GE620 laptop (All of hardware is stock, I didn't change anything. Just install extra 4 GB of RAM)
CPU: Core i7 2630QM
GPU: nVidia GeForce GT 540M / 1 GB DDR3
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Update: I can't even boot from a Windows 7 installation disc!! *cry*

Having not yet installed Developer 6 on my own system, (still running most recent 200 version), I can't be exactly sure. However your problem sounds a lot like the problem I encountered in trying to get my Dev 2000 install to connect.
Here are some things to check:
Is your listener running?
Is your listener properly configured to look for your host machine?
Look in the Oracle Net 8 Assitant utility and see how many listeners have been established. This is where my problem existed. I had 2 listeners. One was trying to connect to my loop back address (127.0.0.1) and could not. The other was properly configured for my host address but would not run because of the failure of the other. Once I removed the listener the was using the loop back address things began to work.
Make sure you have the appropriate alias set up through SQL Net Easy Config and/or Net8 Config.
Thats all I can think of for now.
Hope something I said will help.

Cannot Boot Into Archlinux After Install

I'm trying to install Archlinux on my Lenovo Z570 laptop. I've already installed Windows on this computer, and I'm installing this in another partition I've created (created 3 partitions when I installed Windows with the default Windows tool).
I'm using a bootable USB drive and have tried both downloading the complete .ISO file and downloading the .ISO for the netinstall and booting through that. Both times I follow the steps in the install guide (as detailed https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … ion_Guide) and after I reboot the system, my computer does not boot into anything. I'm trying to use syslinux as my bootloader, although I've tried the steps with Grub and they don't produce any better results. Additionally I installed it with my friend (he installed on his computer) and he used syslinux so I'd just like to keep our system with similar configurations (so I'd like to make the install work with syslinux).
My partition table (extra partitions created with cfdisk) is laid out as:
sda1 primary ntfs
sda5 logical ext4 bootable
sda6 logical ext4
sda3 primary FAT16 (empty formatted drive)
sda4 primary (windows)
I've set sda5 to be my root and sda6 to be my home. They are 15 and 85 gigabytes respectively.
My syslinux.cfg file (/boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg) is the standard generated file modified such that
APPEND root=/dev/sda5 ro
for both arch and archfallback.
I've also tried the steps in (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … al_Install), specifically using the altmbr, by entering:
# printf '\x5' | cat /usr/lib/syslinux/altmbr.bin - | dd bs=440 count=1 iflag=fullblock conv=notrunc of=/dev/sda
However the results are the same.
I've tried the steps in the guide where it mentions setting acpi=off and booting - when looking at a terminal with a wall of text (that I can't move through). I can type but everything I've tried to type, but it always says "Cold not find kernel image: <text>", where <text> is whatever I entered. If I type "boot", it says "Invalid or corrupt kernel image."
I would greatly appreciate any help as I've been trying this for a while.

confusion-is-my-sedative wrote:Personally I don't use syslinux, but I know that with grub you have an option to go into command mode and manually give the parameters from which to boot. It could be that syslinux also has such options. You might want to check the config through a live cd if the bootloader menu isn't coming up. It could also be the windows. I'd say that a few diagnostic commands from a livecd would be your best bet. Then you could copy the output to a usb thumb drive, and we'd have better info to assess the situation. Good luck.
Any advice on what diagnostics to run? All my config info I posted through viewing my system by inserting the USB drive and booting into a live Arch image - as it is there's nothing I can do by booting the computer without inserting this (or another live medium). Thanks.

How do I "get Windows" to install with Boot Camp

I never, ever thought I would have to utilize Windows ever again, but the real estate industry is so outrageously hostile to the Mac platform, most or all of the industry software and websites ONLY run with IE on Windows. So I'm f'ed. But I don't know much about Windows. What is the latest version? I heard Vista is really crap? Is XP better? My man question though is:
According to the Apple site, all I need to do is "get Windows" and install it through Boot Camp. On the Microsoft site under "Buy", they funnel you straight into buying a whole PC in order to get Windows. I can't find anything about just buying a copy of the OS.
Would appreciate some basic clarification on getting started with this subject...
Thanks!

Hi Christopher,
first for clearance: your signature states a G5 dual 2GHz. Is this still correct ?
Because BootCamp only works on Intel-Macs not on PPC-Macs like yours !!
Bootcamp itself is merely a helper application which sets the Mac up so that Windows can be installed.
For a Windows installation you have to have/buy a Windows XP Home or XP Pro with Service Pack (SP) 2 or 3 or a Windows Vista Home / Business or Ultimate.
These can be found at Amazon or Newegg for example.
You can not use so-called Upgrade-discs and manufacturere-branded OEm-disc (from Dell, Hp or the like).
You can use so-called System-Builder discs.
Personally for your use XP would be my first choice, since Vista is for my a 'Nice Try' but not more.
If you can wait a little bit, the I would propose to get Windows 7 which should be out later this year, since it's the Vista that Vista has never been.
Apart from BootCamp there are Virtualization applications like Parallels, VMWare Fusion and VirtualBox which would better suit your needs, since they allow you to run Windows while still be in OSX, whereas with Bootcamp you have to restart your Mac in order to run Windows.
http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/
http://www.virtualbox.org/
For these you also have to have/buy a Windows license/CD.
Hope this helps.

Is it possible to bypass the number of partitions limitation (no more than 2) when trying to boot into windows by not using boot camp assistant, and instead just partitioning the drive manually?

I can't find a specific answer to this question.
I did have a functioning Windows 8 installation on my MacBook Pro previously. I tried to make a third exFAT partition so as to have a drive mutually readable/writable to both operating systems. This made it so I could no longer boot into my Windows installation.
I know I'll need the boot camp drivers installed on the Windows installation after the fact, but would manually creating a partition and installing the OS without Boot Camp Assistant work? And would I be able to boot from it while having a total of 3 partitions?

That's the spirit!
Just be sure to have your OS X junk safe in a tested backup, in case the whole thing craps out and you end up having to do a low-level partition and erase of the entire drive.
And like I said, the problem is not OS X. I've set up mine at least once with 4 partitions holding as many flavors of OS X as can run on the hardware, all perfectly bootable on demand.

Windows automatic startup on Mac Book after installing with Boot Camp?

I installed Windows XP Home Edition 2002 using Boot Camp on my Mac Book with Mac OS X 10.5.1. This is probably a minor problem, but every time I turn on my laptop, Windows XP automatically starts, and the only way to start with Mac OS X is by holding option during start up and selecting Macintosh HD. Is there anyway to automatically start up using Mac OS X and not Windows?

Hi every/any-one
I had this initial problem whereby it automatically started Windows. I couldn't change the default in my Startup Disk pane in OSX because it didn't show either the Mac or XP partition. Once the bootcamp drivers were installed on XP though I could change it in windows - however this is where the real trouble has begun
Now if I restart my computer in either XP or OSX (5.2) I have massive pixel dramas on my screen - like a colour phase shift or something
However, once I am have chosen XP as the default system (whilst in XP boot camp bit) and then immediately restart I can continually restart in XP automatically without any pixel issues. Also if I choose OSX (whilst in XP) and then immediately restart, it will start in OSX correctly (BUT ONLY THE FIRST TIME) - The next time I automatically boot to OSX it is pixel dramas all over again - Similarly if I restart from OSX and want to change to XP and then hold down the option key to swap to XP, XP also has the pixel dramas and will continue to until I ask it to automatically start XP from teh boot camp menu - It is only if it automatically boots to XP that the problem is ok in XP.
I have down loaded the latest leopard updates and the ATI 8.43 graphics driver (the catalyst one didn't install properly so I have uninstalled that) and I still have the same issue - There is nothing on my XP partion at all except the new drivers and the Apple Mouse Utility which I initially put into the start up menu but have since removed and just left on the desktop - Aside from that nothing has changed in XP from its initial installation. I have only gone on the web twice in XP and been to highly reputable sites and not downloaded anything so it would be virtually impossible for it to be a virus. I also couldn't properly download the latest OSX updates via software update (it stalled at 239M so I restarted and got the rest but then it wouldn't install so in the end I had to download the update file manually to trigger the updates) - I am not sure if this is related, to the pixel problem or not.
Does anyone have any answers as I have restarted my computer at least 40 times in trying to isolate the specifics of the problem - but still can't work it out
Could it be related to the fact that neither of my partitions can be seen in startup disk in OSX?
Is it something to do with the screen res in XP ? (I have changed a bit but no good)
Could it be related to the Apple Mouse Utility (I downloaded this so I could right click in XP)
Any help other than formatting my drives, re-doing bootcamp, reinstalling XP would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Slow Boot of Windows after installing Anyconnect Client

We have just migrated our Windows 7 x64 SP1 machines from the Cisco IPSec client to Cisco Anyconnect 3.1.02x.
Users have immediately noticed the negative effect that the AnyConnect client upgrade has had on their machines - Adding an additional ~20 seconds to PC boot time. (NB: Boot time classified as the time it takes from power on, to the 'Ctrl+Alt+Del' logon screen).
Has anyone else encountered issues like this post migration? Anybody know of any timeout settings, or other settings that I could adjust within the AC client to reduce the impact on boot time?
Thanks,
- Scott.

I haven't tested with Anyconnect 3.0. Is there a particular reason that I should?
Good point re: the modules. The modules that I have installed (beliving that this would represent a fairly standard install) are:
Base Windows Client
Network Access Manager (Used to connect to our corporate WiFi)
Start Before Logon
DART (Not sure if I need this component?)
--Perhaps I could look at ditching SBL and DART if these are not typically installed?
I have been scanning the Windows System, Application eventlogs, as well as the Cisco Anyconnect eventlogs. I have tried to locate any mentions of a timeout, but have had no success as yet.
Setting the Cisco AnyConnect Network Access Manager, Network Access Manager Logon Module and Secure Mobility Client services to disabled has the machine booting some 20 seconds faster (of course Anyconnect client is then disabled)
I was expecting a small impact to boot time, but had not prepared our users for a 20 second increase!

hey all - I cant boot into windows after a clean install of XP...will either hang on OS loading screen or on 'detecting IDE drives' after mem check. I''ve updated the bios to current and i've tried using all Nforce SATA drivers out (2.5, .2.6, 2.7) with no luck. The only way i seem to be able to boot into windows is not to install the SATA drivers. When i go that route my machine runs slow. Anyone help me out?

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.

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 a better screenshot.

FreeBSD didn't install, i can no longer boot into Windows

I unsuccessfully installed FreeBSD and I can no longer boot into an OS from the HD. I attempted to install BSD onto the "G" drive below however the the install gave me some kind of storage error and I can no longer boot into Windows. While going through the BSD installation process I opted to NOT install a boot manager (I incorrectly assumed that this would leave my existing boot manager intact).
Here's how I was partitioned pre-FreeBSD (these are all partitions on the same SATA 80GB drive):
C:\ Windows ME
D:\ Windows XP sp1a
E:\ Windows XP-64 beta
F:\ Longhorn 64 preview
[G]:\ unpartitioned 4GB
[F]:\ uformatted 4GB
H:\ NTFS Storage
I:\ FAT32 Storage
Before I attempted to install BSD, I used c:\boot.ini as my boot manager.
Now when I try to boot it says:
Code: [Select]
Invalid Partition
Invalid Partition
No /boot/loader
FreeBSD/i386 boot
Default: 0:ad(0,a)/kernel
boot:
Invalid Partition
No /kernel
FreeBSD/i386 boot
Default: 0:ad(0,a)/kernel
boot: _
Has anyone else ever had this happen to them? If so how can I reenable booting into Windows?

Hi
You got a prob I think, if you can boot a windows, MSconfig, startup options might restore the boot files.Only other thing is to try and either load a new windows and let it setup a boot file, or perhaps a win98 startup disk, and fdisk, then set active partiton, which will set an MBR. But that would leave a load of work to do, I think I'd opt for an install of XP, and let it repair existing installation, and make a new boot file.
Hope you don't need the info on disks. If you do, I would install another HDD, load XP, then copy original Disk to save place.
Good luck

I just bought a 15" macbook pro, do the cds that come with the mac have the drivers i need to update windows after installing windows using boot camp?

What DVDs are this ?
If it is OSX Snow Leopard Installation DVD then yes this disc contains the BootCamp Drivers version 3.x and is needed after the installation of Windows to install the BootCamp Drivers.
With OSX Lion BootCamp is at version 4.x and the BootCamp Drivers have to be downloaded during use of the BootCamp Assistant in OSX.
