  • Attempted to install windows 7 for dual boot but OSX installation now missing???

    I've tried to install Wndows 7 on my macbook air for dual boot but got the kernal error on boot.
    I loaded from the CD again and it sucessfully installed win 7 but when I start the macbook air up it only appears to have windows installed?
    How can I get my OSX back?

    For some odd reason when you use bootcamp to install the second OS bootcamp is defaulted as the primary OS you will need to hold option key to select the apple OS then in the sys preference under startup disk select apple as primary.

  • How to add another operating system for Dual boot in Windows 7 boot configuration

    Hi,
    I have dell laptop with excellent configuration. On which i had windows 7 Home premium on C Drive and Windows server 2008 on D Drive.
    Now i upgraded my Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. But after fresh installation of Win 7 Ultimate my dual boot screen has gone and Win 7 is getting start directly.
    Now i want to add my Windows server 2008 again for dual boot which is still on D Drive.
    Can anyone please tell me how to add windows 2008 boot option in boot configuration to active my dual boot options.
    Thanks

    1) Using bcdedit.exe /enum
    To enable the computer to also boot Windows 7 you again use bcdedit.exe with the following command which will copy the current Windows
    Boot Loader details for Windows Server 2008 to Windows 7.
     bcdedit.exe /copy
    {current} /d "Microsoft Windows 7"
     bcdedit.exe will
    respond with something like the following.
    The
    entry was successfully copied to {................................}.
    Using
    bcdedit.exe /enum to again enumerate through the current entries within the BCD store you'll see the newly added entry.
    Before you can use the newly created Windows boot loader configuration, you'll need to change the partition for Windows 7 using
    the following two bcdedit.exe commands.
    bcdedit.exe /set {.................................} device partition=D:
    bcdedit.exe /set {.................................} osdevice partition=D:
    If you now reboot the system you should now be able to boot into either Windows Server 2008 or Windows 7.

    Business rule: a combination consists of a maximum of 4 subjects (must contain)
    and the user is less relevant to a COMB_NAME(name of combinations) but user need
    the subjects contained in combinations
    i need the following output
    COMB_ID COMB_NAME SUBJECT1 SUBJECT2      SUBJECT3      SUBJECT4
    383     S1     Biology Chemistry      Computer Science Physics
    384     S2     Chemistry Computer Science Mathematics Physics

    COMB_ID     subjects
    383           Biology,Chemistry,Computer Science,Physics
    384           Chemistry,Computer Science,Mathematics,Physics
    you can use any of the COMBINATION table(either (2) or (3))
    and i want to know
    1)which design is good in this case
    (i think SUB_ID1,SUB_ID2,SUB_ID3,SUB_ID4 is not a
    good method to link with same table but if 4 subjects only(and must) comes
    detail table is not neccessary )
    now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
    i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
    i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
    2)how it could be designed in any other way.
    any help/suggestion is welcome
    thanks for your time --Pradeesh

    Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
    SELECT C.COMB_ID
    , C.COMB_NAME
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
    FROM COMBINATION C;
    As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

  • Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with re

    Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with reddish cast and loss of detail
    System: Windows 7
    Adobe CS5
    Printer: Epson Stylus Photo 1400
    Paper: Inkjet matte presentation paper with slight luster
    Installed latest patch for Adobe CS5
    Epson driver up to date
    After reading solutions online and trying them for my settings for 2 days I am still unable to print what I am seeing on my screen in Adobe CS5. I calibrated my monitor, but am not sure once calibration is saved if I somehow use this setting in Photoshop’s color management.
    The files I am printing are photographs of dogs with lots of detail  I digitally painted with my Wacom tablet in Photoshop CS5 and then printed with Epson Stylus 1400 on inkjet paper 20lb with slight luster.
    My Printed images lose a lot of the detail & come out way to dark with a reddish cast and loss of detail when I used these settings in the printing window:
    Color Handling: Photoshop manages color, Color management -ICM, OFF no color adjustment.
    When I change to these settings in printer window: Color Handling:  Printer manages color.  Color management- Color Controls, 1.8 Gamma and choose Epson Standard it prints lighter, but with reddish cast and very little detail and this is the best setting I have used so far.
    Based on what I have read on line, I think the issue is mainly to do with what controls are set in the Photoshop Color Settings window and the Epson Printer preferences. I have screen images attached of these windows and would appreciate knowing what you recommend I enter for each choice.
    Also I am confused as to what ICM color management system to use with this printer and CS5:
    What is the best ICM to use with PS CS5 & the Epson 1400 printer? Should I use the same ICM for both?
    Do I embed the ICM I choose into the new files I create? 
    Do I view all files in the CS5 workspace in this default ICM?
    Do I set my monitor setting to the same ICM?
    If new file opens in CS5 workspace and it has a different embedded profile than my workspace, do I convert it?
    Do I set my printer, Monitor and PS CS5 color settings to the same ICM?
    Is using the same ICM for all devices what is called a consistent workflow?
    I appreciate any and all advice that can be sent my way on this complicated issue. Thank you in advance for your time and kind help.

    It may be possible to figure out by watching a Dr.Brown video on the subject of color printing. Adobe tv
    I hope this may help...............

  • Help me find a sound driver for dual booting G7 with XP

    I have a new HP laptop with Windows 8 64 bit.Model Number is:  Pavilion G7 22251dx   -   Serial is {Removed for privacy}
    The specs can be found here:  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c03561498&cc=ad&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us​...
    I have a clean install of Windows 8 64 bit after having wiped my factory default partition and reinstalled Windows under Legacy Bios Mode instead of the default UEFI. I added back all my drivers from the HP support site and Windows 8 is working correctly.
    I'm dual booting with XP Pro 32 bit with service pack 3. I have no sound in XP Pro 32 bit. I have spent hours trying drivers and nothing is working.
    I need both my video drivers (which are installed) with HD support and I need IDT drivers. Here is the hardware I'm using at least as far as Windows 8 shows.
    The bundled sound driver is called sp59620.exe when you download it but it's actualy: IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver VERSION:  6.10.6425.0 REV:  A
    This hardware information is taken from  AIDA64 Extreme, which is a  system information tool:
    ATI Radeon HDMI (at) AMD K15.1 - High Definition Audio Controller PCI
    IDT 92HD87B2/4 (at) AMD Hudson-3 FCH - High Definition Audio Controller PCI
    I have searched for the driver manually, and used tools such as Slim Drivers, DriverBoost, Ma-config, DriverPack Solution and none of the drivers work ( also they all recommend different drivers LOL)
    I'll be happy to provide any extra information you may need.
    Thank you.

    Hi:
    First install the chipset driver and reboot.  First download listed.

  • How to best partition the HDD for dual boot: Windows 8 & Linux

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie in Windows 8, linux, Partition....
    I would like to use my new laptop with windows 8 pre-installed to the following:
    Create a Dual Boot Windows 8 / Ubuntu
    Create on my C drive (unique drive on my laptop):
    *a partition for the system
    *one for Windows 8
    *one for Data and
    *last one for Ubuntu OS
    My aim is :
    -to install VmWare on Windows 8 and run Checkpoint Splat with virtual machines to perform CCSA labs.
    to install GNS3 on Ubuntu for CCNP labs but with GNS3 accessing files in the Data partition
    I have a Toshiba Satellite with 750Gb and 8 Go RAM.
    According to you what's the best size for my partitions?
    Is there a better way to partition my C drive regarding my aim?
    Best Regards
    ***I don't know if it's the right section, sorry for that. Feel free to move this thread in the appropriate section***

    Hi,
    Thank you all,
    Isn't it too much 200G for Windows as i will on ly install VMWARE Workstation 9 for lab purposes and possibly a few softwares.
    VMWARE installed on Windows will require 2 GB + 1 GB per host (i will use approximatively 15 hosts).
    Checkpoint products will be installed on VMWARE that is installed in Windows :
    - disk space needed for 3 Checkpoint gateways: 3*37 GB
    - disk space needed for 2 Checkpoint gateways management servers: 2*10 GB
    On Linux I'll install GNS3 with 10 GB disk space required and a few softwares.
    I've got a Toshiba stellite computer with Windows 8 pre-installed.
    Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3210M CPU @2.5 Ghz
    RAM: 8 Go
    64 bits OS, processor x64
    See below the screenshot
    I've taken screenshot of my partition (below).
    * Don't take into account the disk 1 (E) partition
    Can u confirm that in Disk o, partitions with 450 Mo, 260 Mo and 9.48 Go are for recovery system?
    I am planning to let the recovery partition as it is and divide the TI30985500A (C) partition (688 Gb) into:
    - 200 Gb windows partition
    -100 Gb Linux partition
    -388 Gb data partition

  • Thank Heavens for Dual Booting MDD G4s

    Just thought I would relate the value of my dual boot MDD G4 at tax time. Turns out I needed some data on capital gains from my 2000 return. Checked the file and OMG, no printed copy of my return. Checked my second drive on my MDD G4 and found the Turbo Tax for Mac files for 2000. But, the program wouldn't open properly in Classic. So, I booted into OS 9 on that second drive, opened Turbo Tax and printed out all the forms I needed. Saved my butt last week as I was stressing out to finish my taxes by the weekend.
    Since I've been doing my taxes on a Mac since the mid-90s, it will be nice to have those files and OS 9 available for some years to come. OS 9 forever!

    Isn't this one of the reasons why the IRS lets you file extensions.

    Yep with older software and files, sometimes the only way is get boot OS 9.x proper.
    Having a dual-boot Mac helped me out big time while facing a critical deadling. I needed document created off disc created in 9.x, yet the document appeared as a Unix executable. Basically, this oldie but goody explains my situation (although it also happens with HFS+ 9.x discs):

  • How to install Arch for dual-boot with Win 7 (on 2 hard drives)?

    Hello,
    the TLDR first: how exactly should I proceed when setting up GRUB for 2 hard drives to dual-boot Arch (64 bit)and Win 7 (64 bit)?
    Long version: So, I have the following hard drive & partition layout:
    On my first hard drive (250 GB big) I have: Win 7 64 bit, all the programs for Windows and of course the EFI partition
    My second hard drive is 1 TB big and formatted in NTFS and it only contains data. It has 2 partitions, one is about 750 GB big and used for simple storage.
    Sidenote 1: sometimes my disk management (Windows' own gparted) shows either the little disk or the big one as disk 0. Don't know what exactly this means, but I have never ever experienced any problems whatsoever during use.
    Sidenote 2: the UEFI motherboard (ASRock H67M) cannot boot into Legacy mode.
    I want to install Arch on a ~200 GB partition on the second hard drive (the one with 1 TB). (click here if you want to see a screenshot) I am posting this because I am confused with how exactly I should deal with the whole "2 hdds & UEFI" thing.
    So how exactly should I proceed when setting up GRUB for this setup?
    For partitioning I suppose I would have to use fdisk or cgdisk. I used cgdisk before and found it to be straightforward. Then, because I have experienced my fair share of problems with rEFInd, I'd like to use GRUB.

    First thing you should do is become familiar with your motherboard.
    http://www.asrock.com/mb/manual.asp?Model=H67M
    This will probably help you out in understanding the sidenote 1 thingie (hdd's on sata3 and/or sata2 connectors)
    As on sidenote 2, according to the manual it seems to be possible to boot legacy mode,  see Storage Configuration.

  • Best protocol for dual booting on a hardware RAID 0 array?

    Hi folks. I would like to dual boot Windows 7 and Arch. I'll append the specs. I have a Terrabyte to split evenly between the two drives - each is 500G. Unless someone can come up with a reason and convince me otherwise, I want to do away with the RAID array. There's no redundancy anyhow and the speed I would lose breaking the array is negligible, therefore irrelevant.
    My issue is that I have a RAID 0 hardware array with Intel Rapid Storage Technology as the controller. The computer did NOT come with a Windows disk, but rather a recovery partition. It is my understanding that if I break the array, I will lose the recovery partition and will not be able to reinstall Windows - which I need. IF....the recovery partition can be unphased by breaking the array and I can use it to reinstall Windows, I would prefer that since I may need to recover Windows in the future. It's not a deal breaker if I can't keep the recovery partition, since I have the Windows key.
    Is this the ideal protocol?:
    1. Backup - I plan on using Alienware Respawn or Clonezilla to backup to a CD and will also backup to an external drive.
    2. Break array, but do not alter BIOS to AHCI - leave as RAID.
    3. Restore Windows on one drive.
    4. Install Arch on second drive.
    5. Configure GRUB.
    6. Smoke stogie or alternatively weep because I turned my computer into a brick.
    At which stage does the partitioning come in? Before or after breaking the array? Is there a better method, than the one I listed. I have spent days scouring Google and the forums and while it's easy to find info on breaking a hardware RAID, there isn't much on doing this with the recovery partition and Alienware Respawn aspects involved. Any help would be appreciated. Please don't kill me or shred my diameter.

    Storage Controllers: Intel(R) Mobile Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller

    I think the big thing will be backing up. I don't know anything about the two programs you would use, but I know that if I dd copy the disks, I would have to change the size of the partitions to match the size of the new partitions. IE: I have Arch installed on a RAID0 of 32GB each, and if I wanted to break my RAID and install on just one disk, I would have to shrink the size of my dd'ed copy to match the smaller drive.
    Otherwise, it looks like you have the right idea, or at least the right direction.

  • Partitioning a disk for dual boot

    My system disk failed last week. The media just stopped holding a proper magnetic charge so I ended up with loads of bad blocks.
    The disk was 120 GB in size.
    I replaced it with a 500 GB model. But I didn't need the extra space for the system disk so I partitioned it into 2 drives (Mac OS Extended). The first one I set to 185 GB and the second one I made 300 GB. The rest of the space was lost due to rounding.
    I restored the 185 GB partition from my backup copy (Retrospect 5) and was quite satisfied with the results - Mac OS 9.2.2. I also was able to access the other (empty) partition successfully.
    I booted the system into 9.2.2 from partition #1 and decided to install OS X on the larger partition. So I loaded up the Tiger Install disk #1. The install process started but when I was asked to select a target drive the empty second partition was not in the list of choices.
    Why?
    I want to have a dual boot capability on the single drive. How do I do that?

  • [SOLVED]Proper Partitioning for Dual-boot

    I am attempting to dual-boot Windows XP and Arch, except I've left no free space...
    Do I have to reformat?
    Also, a question on windows. It uses 1 partition for everything, then allows you to create logical ones, right?

    What Mardoct said about resizing w/ gparted is true, so unless you have the data backed-up, do it as your own risk.  Can you post a screenshot of a gparted map of your drive? 
    As you know, Win needs to be the first partition on the drive.  You are limited to four primary partitions, so if you want more, make three primary partitions, then the rest of the space an an extended partition.  Inside the extended partition, you can add many logical partitions.  I'd recommend doing all this from within gparted.
    My 1 TB drive example:
    /dev/sda1 (primary for windows), 20 gigs
    /dev/sda2 (primary for Arch), 20 gigs
    /dev/sda3 (backup of my Arch partition), 20 gigs
    /dev/sda4 (EXTENDED PARTITION), 873 gigs
    /dev/sda5 (logical for /home), 72 gigs
    /dev/sda6 (logical for /var), 8 gigs
    /dev/sda7 (logical for /boot), 0.11 gigs
    /dev/sda8 (logical for /data), 784 gigs
    /dev/sda9 (logical for swap), 8 gigs
    As a side note, you can also you gparted to copy/paste entire partitions which makes keeping backup very easy.  My /dev/sda3 is a periodic backup of my live Arch partition.
