Cannot (Re)Load Operating System - OptiPlex 755

I have an OptiPlex 755 that was wiped clean.  When I boot the computer I get the warning the System Battery Voltage is low..  After I press F1 to continue I get the message "Error Loading Operating System".
I tried again this time selecting F5 to run onboard diagnostics and nothing happens.
Any help will be appreciated.

Optical drives like Floppy drives are on their way out.
F12 booting a USB Flash device is the way things will become in the future.  You can even install Ubuntu alongside windows to dual boot.
It resizes your NTFS partition and installs UBuntu in its own EFS partition.  When you reboot you can choose Linux or XP.  That way you dont lose any data files.

  • SSRS 2005 report: Cannot bulk load Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.)

    I built a SSRS 2005 report, which calls a stored proc on SQL Server 2005. The proc contains following code:
    CREATE TABLE #promo (promo VARCHAR(1000))
    BULK
    INSERT #promo
    FROM '\\aseposretail\c$\nz\promo_names.txt'
    WITH
    --FIELDTERMINATOR = '',
    ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
    SELECT * from #promo
    It's ok when I manually execute the proc in SSMS.
    When I try to run the report from BIDS I got following error:
    *Cannot bulk load because the file "\aseposretail\c$\nz\promo_names.txt" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).*
    Note: I have gooled a bit and see many questions on this but they are not relevant because I CAN run the code no problem in SSMS. It's the SSRS having the issue. I know little about the security of SSRS.

    I'm having the same type of issue.  I can bulk load the same file into the same table on the same server using the same login on one workstation, but not on another.  I get this error:
    Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
    Cannot bulk load because the file "\\xxx\abc.txt" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
    I've checked SQL client versions and they are the same, I've also set the client connection to TCP/IP only in the SQL Server Configuration Manager.  Still this one workstation is getting the error.  Since the same login is being used on both workstations and it works on one  but not the other, the issue is not a permissions issue.  I can also have another user login into the bad workstation and have the bulk load fail, but when they log into their regular workstation it works fine.  Any ideas on what the client configuration issue is?  These are the version numbers for Management Studio:
    Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 9.00.3042.00
    Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 2005.090.3042.00
    Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.085.1132.00 (xpsp.080413-0852)

  • Error loading operating system (windows 7)

    Macbook pro 8,2 (early 2011)
    Samsung SSD 850 evo primary drive
    OWC electra 3G secondary drive in place of the original DVD drive (with disk doubler).
    My original HDD was removed for the two SSD configuration.
    It contains two partition (OS X and Win 7 pro) and everything works fine.
    I use Winclone to clone Win 7 partition to the new OWC drive.
    My OS X partition was placed on the primary Samsung drive.
    OS X works fine.
    Win 7 works fine when i use Parallels Desktop (virtualization).
    But when i try to boot with Win 7, i have the " error loading operating system" black screen.
    I cannot repair Win 7 with the installation disc because when i try to boot with the DVD, i have à black screen with a white cursor and nothing happend. (original DVD drive is used in usb, inside a dedicated external cradle).
    Here are some of terminal commands :

    Thank you for your help !

    You are creating a new protective MBR, not a Hybrid MBR. A protective MBR encapsulates the disk into a single entry the size of the disk so legacy partitioning tools leave it untouched to 'protect' the GPT.
    In your case, since disk1 has only two partitions, GPT1 and GPT2, you should have two entries.
    Here is an example, where GPT3, 4 and 5 are hybridized.
    Rebuild MBR to match the new GPT information thus resetting the Hybrid MBR.
    Use defaults for other questions (for example Enter an MBR hex code (default AF): AF).
    Sudo gdisk /dev/disk0
    P  (Print list of parts)
    R   (Recover)
    H (chooses Hybrid)
    Partitions numbers to be hybridized: 3 4 5
    Y (Good for GRUB question)
    N (part 3 boot flag)
    N (part 4 boot flag)
    Y  (part 5 boot flag make NTFS bootable partition)
    P  (Print list of parts again)
    W  (Write the new MBR)
    Y    (Yes! write the new MBR)
    Reboot
    Please ensure that the following questions get appropriate defaults or correct values for the MBR hex codes as suggested by Gdisk. These are examples using a standard, your partition numbers will have a differential of 1. Given the prior Gdisk steps, your mapping will look as follows
    GPT1+2 (EFI+OSX) = MBR1 (You lose read visibility to OSX from Windows).
    GPT3 = MBR2 (Recovery HD).
    GPT4 (Shareddisk) = MBR3 (Shareddisk)
    GPT5 (Bootcamp) = MBR4 (Bootcamp - This should be made bootable).
    You can create variants of which partitions get mapped to which MBR). If you use 2 4 5, then Recovery will look like Free Disk space to Windows and can be corrupted. If you use 4 5, then EFI+OSX+Recovery HD will end up in MBR1. Try and see which works the best for you. In this configuration, I would also recommend not using any third-party NTFS tools.
    The following is an example for 2 3 4
    Creating entry for GPT partition #2 (MBR partition #2)
    Enter an MBR hex code (default AF): AF
    Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): n
    Creating entry for GPT partition #3 (MBR partition #3)
    Enter an MBR hex code (default AB): AB
    Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): n
    Creating entry for GPT partition #4 (MBR partition #4)
    Enter an MBR hex code (default 07): 07
    Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): y
    In your case the steps will become...
    Sudo gdisk /dev/disk0
    P  (Print list of parts)
    R   (Recover)
    H (chooses Hybrid)
    Partitions numbers to be hybridized: 2
    Y (Good for GRUB question)
    Y  (part 2 boot flag make NTFS bootable partition)
    P  (Print list of parts again)
    W  (Write the new MBR)
    Y    (Yes! write the new MBR)
    Reboot
    After the reboot, check the output of sudo fdisk /dev/disk0.

  • Error loading operating system- windows xp/windows me

    Hi,
    So, I have a Hp Pavillion 9715 desktop with windows xp professional and basically yesterday I turned on my computer and all it would do would go to the black screen saying "error loading operating system"
    Now I'm not really sure what tp do I was going to reinstall window xp, but i dont how to do this as i don't have the cd and the computer wont even power up in safe mode. I then realised that my computer's operating system is windows millenium edition, which i havs the recovery cd for. i could use this, but id lose all my data. i was wondering if there was a way to save or transfer all my files to a different hard drive. Or if there was a way to use the recovery cd to repair everything without me losing all my personal files, or would this not work because it would be windows me that is reinstalled and not xp?
    If anyone at all could help me id be so grateful, its quite annoying/upsetting. Thanks

    Wow! Your PC is almost as old as my  (1996) Compaq 14XL244 Notebook.
    It still works, but required hard disk replacement about six years ago.  I suspect you will have a very hard time getting any files from your IDE hard disk. You can try putting the hard disk in an external enclosure and connecting it via USB to another PC. 
    The error message that you are seeing means that the BIOS can no longer recognize the hard dive.
    It is probably time to consider updating to a more recent PC. You certainly got plenty of good service life from it.
    Kind regards,

  • "Error loading operating system" in windows 7 bootcamp

    Hello, Im trying to boot up my windows 7 and its giving me "Error loading operating system". But the wierd thing is from Mac OS X i can access my bootcamp without any problem "browsing it", all my music is on it actually. Any solutions guys?

    Hi guys,
    Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I am suddenly having a very similar problem and maybe one of you can help me.  I have searched the problem using many different phrases but have not found a solution to my specific issue anywhere so I turned here.
    Problem : I am getting the "Error Loading Operating System" error on the windows side after trying to boot up using BootCamp.
    More Info / History :  Everything was running fine until I updated OSX to 10.10.02.  I have an unsupported card with no EFI : GTX 980 so I couldn't tell what was going on with the update but it just hung in black screen for a while and then when into an infinite restart-loop.  Sooooo, I pulled the card and put my old GTX 120 with EFI back in to see what the **** was going on and miraculously it decided to finish the update.  (Maybe it had something to do with the unsupported card? IDK)  The update finished successfully after i swapped out the cards but I fear i screwed up something by restarting during the update (I was hung up, I waited a very long time before hitting the power button).  OSX is running ok, I put the other card back in and it is working ok now, but...  BootCamp was working...  once.  Then I restarted and it wouldn't work, I got the error message.  So I tried doing a verify/repair disk on both drives, OSX and W7, and that didn't do anything, so I tried to start BootCamp assistant and I couldn't...  So I reset the PRAM and that fixed the problem with BootCamp Assistant, so now that starts up, but I don't know if I can repair the issue with it?  However I still can't boot into Windows.  Again, when I hold down option on boot, I do get the menu (BootCamp?) to choose which OS to go into.  Side Note, when I pick Recovery Mode from that menu, I get the mac error message and it restarts.
    All the W7 Files are still present on the drive...  Is there any way I can back up the image, re-prep the drive for BootCamp and re-image it to repair it?  All thoughts, suggestions, etc. welcome.
    Hardware:
    • Upgraded 2009 Hex-Core Mac Pro flashed to 2010
    • OWC PCIE SSD - OSX 10.2.2 installed here
    • nVidia GTX 980 - EVGA
    • 1TB HDD - 1 Partition - Windows 7 installed here (Bootcamp)

  • "Error Loading Operating System" Message on startup. Need Help~~

    Hi Peoples,
    I got the "Error Loading Operating System" message when restarting widows. Been pulling my hairs off the past few days looking for solutions, but with no dice. anyone have a solution??
    I think the problem occurred when my computer got crashed, so I forced to turn off the computer buy hitting the power button, the next time I started the computer and it gives me a "Error Loading Operating system".
    I have tried the recommendation from Microsoft by updated the bios. Didn't work.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326676
    Other solutions that recommended from varied resources, recommanding to set the drive from LBA to Large. But I don't see that option in the Bios setup.. maybe because my HD's was setup as RAID 0?
    and other recommended to use a startup disk boot into DOS and use the  fixboot/mbr to fix the mbr. But when I tried to boot with a startup disk I can't seems to find my C:\  (which is the RAID 0). How can can boot to the into the RAID?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Specs of my computer
    CPU: P4 3.0
    Mother Board: 875P Neo-LSR/
    Graphic Card: Nvidia Quadro FX 1000
    Memory: 2 GB
    HD: 2X 80 Seagate SATA Drive Configured as RAID 0

    Hey Stu, Thanks for your reply. Yes, I think the bios is configured correctly and the Raid is configured as the way it use to be.
    About the crashed, last time when I shutted down widow, using the Shut down button in the Start Menu, Window got got freezed and the power is still on, due to frustration I hit the Power button to turn off the computer, the next day I turn on the computer, and it gives me the error message.
    <-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I am using Amibios version 3.31a,
    Harddrives I have the following:
    2X80GB Seagate SATA figured as RAID 0 for C:
    80GB Maxtor on Primary ID Master
    80GB Western on Primary ID Slave
    Samsung CDRW/DVD on Secondary IDE Master
    NEC DVD RW ND on Secondary IDE Slave
    Bios setting > Intergrated Peripherals > On-Chip IDE Configuration  I have the following setting:
    On-Chip ATA  Operate Mode: Native Mode
    ATA Configuration: S-ATA Only
    S-ATA Keep Enabled: Yes
    P-ATA Channel Selection: Both
    Combined Mode Option: P-ATA 1st Channel
    S-ATA Ports Definition: p0-1st./P1-2nd.
    Configure S-ATA as RAID: Yes
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->
    PS: Is there a way to boot into the C: (Raid 0 drive) Using Dos? or maybe I can check the files is still in C drive? If the files are there, means the drives are OK? and Maybe I can use the "Fixboot" the problem? Please advise, again thanks for your help.
    Thanks.

  • I cannot get the operating system back on

    after erasing everything off my macbook pro I cannot get the operating system back on.  It says my machine cannot be verified.

    can yout machine not be verified or can the software not be verified?
    If it's the software, you'll need to download Lion again as your isntaller is likely corrupted.
    If it is the former, I'm not sure.. sorry

  • "disk read error" and "error loading operating system"

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my N100 0768 BSG with Windows XP system. When I turned it on there was a lenovo screen with a sign: "to interrupt normal startup press lenovo care button" as usual. But after that instead of Windows loading there was a sign: "disk read error". I rebooted it, run rescue and recovery and started recovery proces.
    However after about 20 minutes of recovery process, I saw a blue screen with some error and I could only shut down the computer. When I turned it on again, there was lenovo screen and after that I saw: "error loading operating system". I rebooted it but now I can't even run "rescue and recovery".
    I downloaded some diagnostic programme from lenovo site, burned it on dvd and run on my lenovo. When it was doing "Surface scan test" of my hard drive, there was an error: "Error : Found uncorrectable data error."
    I thought about buying rescue and recovery cd from lenovo but I heard that they do not sell it in Poland.
    Please help me.
    Sorry for my English.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you have a dual core processor and 2 GB of RAM you will have no problems running Windows 7.   You can check the microsoft hardware compatibility site to find out for sure.
     Why 32 bit over 64 bit?
    Unless you are doing an application like Video rendering or using a Digital Audio Workstation you probably won't notice any performance difference.  Most applications today aren't written to take advantage of a 64 bit OS.  This will happen over time but for now - you just don't need it.  The 32 bit OS will be more compatible with older peripherals like printers and other devices where the manufacturer may not have built a 64 bit driver.  Also when you get the upgrade disk you will get both versions so you can start with the 32 bit and always upgrade to the 64 bit at a later time if you really need it.  You can only address a little more than 3 GB of RAM in a 32 bit OS but that is usually overkill for most applications people use.  A 64 bit OS will allow you to address more memory but you will not gain any performance increases unless the specific application you run is written as a 64 bit application. 
    I have also found certain older applications that don't work with the 64 bit OS. So it really depends on what peripherals you are using and what applications you tend to use.  The safe bet is to go with the 32 bit version. 
    If you decide to use XP just burn a copy of the XP disk and then you will have one the next time you need to reload.  The licensing has nothing to do with the media - it is all about the license you own.  Your license key should be on the bottom of your laptop. 
    Hope this helps. 

  • Satellite A205-s5809: Error loading Operating System

    I currently have a problem with my laptop as when I turn it on now, it goes straight to the loading screen for f4/f12 and then after that it goes black and goes right into a Error while loading operating system.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Edit: Now I have a new problem, when I go to insert the CD and hold down "C" to do the recovery options, right when I am about to finalize the recovery options to go to factory settings, an error pops up and tells me to shut down the computer.
    Error : 08-064B-0000
     Paration creation failed
    Please press [OK] To turn off the computer.
    Edit2: Ok, now I have done some reasearch and they say it is the BIOS that is what is wrong with my computer, I have not been able to get into the BIOS at all, I have mashed every button from f1-f12 and ESC, DEL, "C", and no BIOS.
    Can anyone help me?

    Agree with Chris that the harddrive failure on partition is corrupted.  Look into a new one to have  less headaches.

    Do the BIOS recognize the HDD? Check this in BIOS.
    Can you boot in safe mode?
    If you can go in the advanced boot menu, choose repair my computer and select the Toshiba recovery option. This procedure reinstalls the OS.
    This feature is only available with a preinstall Windows Vista. If you have Windows XP, you must use the CD.

  • P2vhd and error loading operating system

    I used p2vhd to create a windows server 2003 server to a vhd file.  I have done in this in the past wihtout any issue but it seems this time when i load the vhd i get the message.  error
    loading operating system.  Any idea why this is?

    Hi KirkSH,
    I am assuming that you are using SCVMM to achieve P2V .
    And the following article indicated that server pack2 is required to install into
    server2003 when you try to do P2V :
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh427293.aspx
    Also it is recommended to use windows server 2003 with sp2 as a VM  in hype-v 2008/R2 and hyper-v 2012/R2 .
    For details please refer to following links :

    hey Xtiansdomain,
    i do hope that you created recovery media via One Key Recovery. If you did, use that to recover your system.
    however if no recovery media was made, get in contact with the support crew via : http://bit.ly/LNVsuppNum
