Failed to install Windows Vista SP2 on iMac

I was trying to install Windows Vista on my iMac. In fact, I have successfully installed before but I deleted it because something wrong with it. However, the second time I installed was failed (Stuck at "Completing Installation") I tried 4 times and they were all the same. But the weirdest thing was I could install Windows Vista through Parallels Desktop. (but can't install it through boot camp)
I just thought of one problem
-I plugged in an external hard disk
Would it be the problem?
Is there any method that can solve this problem?

Hi,
I just thought of one problem
-I plugged in an external hard disk
Would it be the problem?
It is most likely the cause of your problem.
During installation of Vista (and personally I do this with OSX system upgrades as well) it is advisable to disconnect all non-essential external devices, leaving only mouse, keyboard and, if neccessary, display connected.
SO, disconnected your external HD, use the BootCamp Assistant to revert the partitioning back to a single-OSX volume and start again.
After reverting back you should restart your Mac.
Hope it helps

Is there any method that can solve this problem?

BOOTCAMP fails to install Windows XP SP2

I ran the assistant, partitioned ok, but running the Windows XP disk that used to work with the public beta versions of bootcamp fails to install after rebooting: [in windows style] "disk error...press any key to restart" All I can do is shut down the mac and reboot in Mac OS.
Anyone?

Not to sound stuffy - but you would do better posting this in the BootCamp forum.
It's not an unusual problem and others have posted ways to fix it.

HP Pavilion dv6 1133-ea Windows Vista SP2

So after install windows vista sp2, I have noticed that the sound has disappeared...all the drivers are installed! AND I really cannot see why the sound would not be there because the drivers and everything are fine...is it some sort of compatability problem?

Hi,
Try the following.
First, uninstall Skype and when this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has reloaded, download and reinstall the Chipset driver Here.
When the installation has finished, restart the notebook again.
Let windows fully load, then download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45044.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook.
Let Windows fully load, then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
Reinstall Skype and see if the Mic now works Ok.

3000Q 100 and Windows Vista SP2

Recently I installed Windows Vista SP2 on my 3000Q 100 desktop. However, after the installation there was an error at bootup.
0162 Configuration Error. Press F1 to change settings or F2 to use previous settings.
Pressing F2 allows me to enter into Vista, but the date will be reset to 1 January 2006 12.00 am. It is not pleasant having to change the date everytime I boot up.
I wanted to do a system restore, but I don't know how I managed to erase the system restore file before installing SP2. So system restore is not possible.
I uninstalled SP2, and now I have a new error:
098: Unauthorized change in BIOS detected. Press F1 to change settings or F2 to use previous settings.
Similarly, F2 allows me to go back to windows, but then the date resets again!
Anyone can help?

Thanks for the head's up Walter.
Do we have any idea when 7 will be released?
Secondly, is there any known workaround? I've found some of the web that extended the FileSystemView, but when I attempted one of them, it kept *.lnk files from appearing the Drop Down menu, but if I clicked on one in the window of the chooser, it broke with the same error.
The only reason I ask for a work around, is my employeer is not the fastest about updating the JRE allowed on the network/machines, so I may be stuck with 1.6.0_22(b02) for a while.
Again, thanks for the guidance.

Hello,
Based on your description, it seems that this issue only occurs on Windows Vista SP2, and I get that connect you shared and have helped to vote it.
I think that Microsoft engineers will evaluate them seriously and provide you better support. In addition, you can post the answer here once the issue is resolved.

Windows Vista Ultimate on iMac 24" Experience

I wanted to share my experience installing Windows Vista Ultimate on my new iMac 24" with Bootcamp 1.2.
Background: My iMac is a 2.16 Dual Core with 1GB memory, 128MB of video memory, and bluetooth keyboard and mouse. It has the latest and greatest version of OS X and Bootcamp 1.2.
Experience: I installed bootcamp with no problems. I followed the setup wizard, creating the windows drive cd, and partitioned my hardrive with ease. I placed the Windows Vista Ultimate dvd in the drive and restarted my Mac. To my suprise, Windows Vista setup loaded recognizing the bluetooth keyboard/mouse and proceeded to install. The installation took about 15 mins.
Conclusion: I was quite impressed with Vista's speed. When I double clicked the applications they bursted open. The new Aero interface was incredible. The colors were vibrant and bright. I was expecting Vista to run dog slow with the hardware configuration but it was quite the opposite. The configuration was no problem for Vista. I know Vista has the ability to use unused ram dynamically for video so maybe that was it.
I know some people will get mad but I found myself switching back and forth looking at OS X and Vista. Reason is the speed was noticeably quicker in Vista. I did discover that Vista uses a "prefetch" technology which stores files of the recently used applications. It allows them to load commonly used applications faster.
Anyway, I thought I would share my experience. Best part was Bootcamp 1.2 and Vista Ultimate (30 days) are free. Back to OS X.

Compare the price of vista ultimate to tiger, and you might notice something...
Okay, maybe that version might be beautiful (the graphic art) but all clean and clear, it is still running on a failing foundation, aka windows platform.
I suppose I would share your opinion on speed when seeing it, but I want to mention that, when I experienced Windows XP with a previous bootcamp version, I also noticed that windows was verrry speedy. A friend of mine installed the same cd of xp on his computer with exactly the same config-specs as mine, only difference was: it was a non-apple machine and mine is (ofcourse).
Guess what we both experienced, there was no way that the speed was the same, although they both had same configs (and then I mean not only for ram, but every aspect). Don't ask me how that is possible (maybe that, for recognizing mouses and stuff the so called plug and play system of microsoft gets overwritten by the driver from mac you need to install to run windows on mac?) but I know it is just true.
To me that proves once again that mac is just way better. (and for your information, I've been working with windows for 8 years, until last year July, so I'm not just a un-XP'd anti-microsoft apple fan) but that anti-microsoft might in fact become true.
And just a little Tiger tumb up;
Now ofcourse, can't blame you for that because on a desktop you won't see all of that, but have you seen what happens with your battery life of a macbook or macbook pro when running both xp or vista on it? **** man, I have 4 hours battery-life when running os X with "best performance" settings, airport and bluetooth out, mighty mouse with cord (ofcourse, the bluetooth is out), ethernet cable plugged-in, full brightness. When running XP, that changes to 2h 26min, same config. Now, there vista is heavier in a graphical way, you see the battery life under vista shrinking to 2h 01min...

HT1455 I tried to install windows 7 on my imac but the computer was not booting again what shall I do?

I was installing windows 7 on my imac but the installation was not completed and now I cannot boot what shall I do?

Provided you used BootCamp to do the installation, with your machine off, press and hold down the "Option" key while turning it on. Hold the key down until you get the screen where you can select which OS to boot into. Select OS X (you'll need to physically click the button here... tapping won't work if you have it enabled). Once in OS X, go into System Preferences and Startup Disk. This is where you set the default OS to boot into. Change it to OS X. Relaunch BootCamp Assistant to remove the failed installation of Windows. You can try again if you wish.

Problems mounting ISOs on Windows Vista SP2

I've been trying for the last few days to try to mount and ISO through Daemon Tools and Magic Disc to try to run a setup of a game. However, whenever I get into the autorun of the disc and click the setup button, all I get is a command prompt line for a split second and then nothing. I've tried mounting this disc on my PC running Windows Vista and it installed perfectly, no trouble at all. It also seems like Daemon Tools on my Mac is breaking some of the files, because on my MBP I noticed that some of the pictures are corrupt, but when I run it on my PC those pictures are fine and it's the same ISO file!
Does anyone know a remedy for this? I'm running Windows Vista SP2 on a 17" MBP Unibody 2.8GHz. Thank you!

Having some Issues After Installing Windows Vista

I just recently installed Windows Vista Ultimate 32 Bit SP1 on my Intel iMac running OS 10.6. I thought everything was good until I noticed 2 things. 1. I did not have a Boot Camp icon in the system try, nor could I find it listed in control panels. 2. When I tried connecting to the internet via Internet Explorer while in Windows, it told me that I did not have a internet or network connection. When I'm on the Mac OS X side my internet connection is fine. I tried reinstalling the drivers, but my only options were install CD/DVD or to connect my computer to another computer. I tried installing them manually but I noticed a yellow exclamation point on my iSight and Broadcom drivers. I can't update them because I can't connect to the internet. Can anyone help? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I'm not a PC expert. Thanks!

Hi Adeedo,
Even I have the same kind of problem. After reading an update features list, I turned off and on the "Network Time Zone" button, its the same issue and its almost an hour its still saying that "Waiting for Network Time. After reboot the msg didn't appear but after turn off and turn on, same issue.
Seems like the update broken this issue while fixing the part of not showing the city and country when the "Network Time Zone" option is turned on.
I have got the 1.3.5 features info from the following link.
http://www.everythingpre.com/forum/palm-webos/official-webos-1-3-5-update-discussion-25209.html
( Date & Time
When the user has Network time zone enabled, a city and country are no longer displayed.
I got this phone recently two week ago, and it was on WebOs 1.2.1 till i upgraded to 1.3.5 a week ago.
I am also having some other issues like Alarm. I have set two alarms one at 6.30 am and another at 6.45 am. It used to work fine, like getting buzzed for two alarms one after the other till before I update to 1.3.5. Today morning i observed that i got the buzz for first alarm, but i was waiting for the second one and it didn't come at all. I dismissed the first one. The phone was in charging using AC power.
(Sprint Navigation

Either this statement is wrong or the update is not working as it supposed to if this statement is correct. When i click the address from the open contact entry it takes me to Googles Page but not to Sprint Navigation launcher. Either i am doing wrong. Some one can help me how to launch Sprint navigation from the contact entry.

CS-15 and Windows Vista SP2

Hi,
I´m wondering if it is possible to connect to internet with the CS-15 usb modem when I´m using Windows Vista SP2? It hasn´t been any problem when installing the modem and it gets contact with the 3G net too.
The problem is that I can´t connect to internet. When I´m trying I get the message "No available connection profile". When I go to options/settings/connections in the Nokia Internet Modem software there is the same "No available connection profile" message too. If I try to create a new profile I get the message: "The name is invalid: (connection name)"
I have tried every possible solution I have thought of and that I have find on different forums on Internet with no result. When I tried the modem on my parents computer with Windows 7 it worked just fine!
Because of all this I think that the CS-15 modem isn´t compatible with Windows Vista SP2. Does someone now if this is the case, and is there any update available to get it working with Windows Vista SP2? I have to get a solution soon because i just trying the modem out, and if I don´t get it working within a few days I have to return the modem back to the seller.
Thanks,
Moffa

How do I install Windows Vista on my New Macbook Pro

I need to use DOS for work to fill out reports for my organization. I have the newest 15.4 macbook pro with intel core 2 duo. I want to know the exact steps to install windows vista on my computer?? please help me.

It depends on what you want to use Windows for, are you going to work mainly in Windows or OSX? Will you need to cross between the two and if so will restarting your computer be a pain?
I use Paralles, a copy of that is around $75 as far as I can remember.
Personally I had a copy of Windows XP so that was the first Windows OS I used with Paralles, then Vista came out so I though I would get a copy as it was supposed to be * the * Windows OS, when I installed Vista I was so dissapointed with it. I would go as far as say it is one of the ugliest OS's I have seen, I actually prefer XP, it's like the old space programs when you look at the sets, they made an effort but you can see the budget was low, it looks like a really poor effort at copying OSX but they didn't spend the money on doing it right.
Anyway, I just use XP so Vista for me was a waste of money. XP works faster and is more intuitive than Vista 'If Windows can be intuative that is'.
I also read out there that security in Vista isn't what it is cracked up to be.
Hope this helps.

Qosmio G20 Vista drivers? Not needed to install Windows Vista

Hello,
I am new at this forum. My name is Francisco and I live in Brazil. I own a Toshiba Qosmio g20_105 and it is running Windows Vista Ultimate EN RTM 6000 without problems.
To do this, you must perform a fresh install of Windows Vista. The drivers for network (Intel PRO100),for audio (Soundmax), for TV (Toshiba PCI Tuner), modem (toshiba modem), Alps pointing device are installed directly from microsoft. You must install Toshiba nvidia display driver, Toshiba Bluetooth (monitor and stack), Toshiba texas flash media driver, toshiba RAID (driver and utilities), toshiba remote control manager and ConfigFree for Windows Vista.
You must have the Toshiba RAID drivers to install from the windows Vista DVD. Otherway, Windows does not recognize Toshiba RAID 0 and RAID 1.
Below some pictures of my G20 Desktop screen:
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/myqosmiog20screen1.jpg
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/myqosmiog20screen2.jpg
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/myqosmiog20screen3.jpg
And here is an example of using deskscapes animated backgrounds with Windows Vista, called dreamscene.
It is in paused mode
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/myqosmiog20screen4.jpg
To perform a fresh install of windows Vista:
Please, download the Toshiba RAID drivers from here:
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/drivers/raid.rar
1. Copy the contents of this archive onto a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive.
2. Insert your Microsoft Windows Vista Edition Bootable DVD.
3. Power on your computer and press F12 to display the boot menu.
4. Choose the option to boot from the CD/DVD drive.
5. On the first setup screen, choose your language options then press "Next".
6. Press "Install Now".
7. Type in your Product Key then press "Next".
8. Accept the license terms by checking the box then press "Next".
9. When asked "What type of installation do you want", press "Custom (advanced)".
10. When asked "Where do you want to install Windows", make sure your media containing the Toshiba RAID drivers is connected to the computer, then click on "Load Driver".
11. Browse to the location you have copied the RAID drivers to then press "OK".
12. Setup will return to the previous screen, but it will show that you have selected the TOSHIBA RAID driver.
13. Make sure the TOSHIBA RAID driver is selected then press "Next".
14. Continue the installation of Windows Vista as normal.
Now you will need the Toshiba drivers for your Qosmio G20:
See the Device manager info:
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/qosmiodrivers1.jpg
Drivers:
1. SD memory controller
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/drivers/SD_memory.rar
2. Bluetooth monitor and stack
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/drivers/bluetooth_mon.rar
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/drivers/bluetooth_stack.rar
3. Nvidia display driver GeForce Go 6600
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/drivers/nvidia97.52.rar
4. Texas FlashMedia controller
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/drivers/flasmedia.rar
And finally the Toshiba utilities:
Toshiba Configfree
Toshiba Assist
RAID utilities
Remote control manager
Toshiba SD Memory utilities
That's it...
So I must tell to you that Toshiba Qosmio G20 is Windows Vista Ultimate capable, indeed.
Hope this helps people who need and want to install Windows Vista Aero on their Qosmio G20 machines.

Windows 7 is the same and will run the same as it would on a Windows computer. All programs that run on a windows computer will run on your Windows once installed. You will need anti virus software for your Windows partition. Microsoft Security Essentials is free and it works well.

Help! Can I still install Windows Vista through Bootcamp?

I am currently running Lion 10.7.3 on my MacBook Pro.
When I purchased this laptop 2 years ago, Bootcamp allowed me to create a partition and install Windows Vista.   Then, over time I upgraded to OS X Snow Leopard and then Lion. Never really paid attention to the bootcamp . . upgrades that came along with the system upgrades until now.
I was having issues with my Windows Vista Partition, so I decided to use Bootcamp to remove the Windows partition (with the thought that I would just re-create it and start fresh). Easy right? Wrong.   Now, bootcamp won't allow me to install Vista. Only Windows 7. I don't want to run out and buy Windows 7 when I have a perfectly good (if you can call Vista good lol) copy of Windows . .    I only need it to run a thermal printer for UPS because it is not compatible with MAC.
IS there any way to get around this and install Vista on the partition instead of windows 7?   If so . . how?
My gosh I am actually wondering if it's cheaper to run out and buy a cheapo Acer computer for $250 . . then to deal with this headache.
Any suggestions?

Vista is not supported by Lion. There are no drivers.

Do I need to install boot camp on Windows 7 as well as on Lion? I already installed it some years ago on Leopard when installing Windows Vista on my Macbook Pro. But now after installing Windows 7, many things in windows doesn't work (sound etc.)

Do I need to install boot camp on Windows 7 as well as on Lion? I already installed it some years ago on Leopard when installing Windows Vista on my Macbook Pro. But now after installing Windows 7, many things in windows doesn't work (sound etc.). I made a clean installation because I needed to go from 32 bit to 64 bit.
Or should I just update bootcamp in Lion? (cause when I search for "boot camp" in Windows 7 there's no result)
