How can I install WinPE on a MacBook Pro? (or any other way to repair Win7 boot sector on a MacBook Pro?)

Hello,
I run MacOS X 10.8.5 and Win7 SP1 installed on a MacBook Pro (model summer 2010).
I used to run Win7 using Parallels desktop. I have version 9.0.23036 installed.
Unfortunately, the boot sector for Win7 got corrupted or erased (???)
I have many professional apps installed on Win7, not easy to re-install...
=> I try to find a way to use WinPE to solve the issue.
But I cannot boot directly from WinPE (v3.n?) on a USB memory stick. It stops when loading the system files.
Is there a way to run WinPE anyway? Using Boot Camp? Using Parallels desktop? by copying some Parallels drivers onto the WinPE system? (but which ones? where to copy them?)
Is there any other way to re-create the boot sector for Win7 without a full re-install?
Many thanks for any help.

Thank you very much.
I could make a bootable clone of the Ma OS side using Carbon Copy Cloner. This point is OK.
I sill get trouble with the WinRE environment: I cannot boot directly from the Win7 DVD: the loading of the system files stops at a certain point and I cannot get the Windows menu.
I could read a procedure on the Parallels.com support site (http://kb.parallels.com/en/5223) and tried to follow it (my Windows was installed using Boot Camp). The problem is that, unliked described on step 2 (Choose to "Start Windows Installation"), I can't get this choice in the Boot Camp menu. I only have two choices : "Download the latest Windows support software" or "Remove Windows 7 or later version". Do you know how I can get the "Start Windows Installation" choice, so that I can launch the Windows DVD through Boot Camp?
Thank you in advance

Yes.
Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10
However, the real issue is why the program is not working. Did you install anything recently?
When you tried to re-install from the disk, did you shut off the antivirus program temporarily?
Have you tried a system restore to a point in time when the program was working properly?

I haven't installed "Find My iPod" but Is there any other way I can find my iPod touch?

I didn't Install "Find My iPod" and I now cannot find my iPod touch..
Is there any way that I may be able to find it?
Have turned house upside down and called every store I went into on the day - still no luck ):
would really appreciate your help!

Just the old fashioned way, like if you lost your wallet.
Apple will not help.
If it is in your home and wifi is on and connected you can call it with FaceTime, Skype or other app that will play a notification sound and listen for it.
Report to police and change the passwords for all account used on the iPod

Can someone help me and explain how to affect hotspot/image map with css rules or any other way?

i have problem with hotspot because its position cant be fixed to follow the proportion of the fixed background in different resoulutions.

You can't affect hotspots at all with css. Here are a couple different options you have available though...
You could try using multiple images that scale, linking each individual image, instead of hotspots.
You could also look into "responsive image maps" to get quite a few examples of jquery/javascript run image maps that can be scaled.
Depending on your image, (for example, if you are linking states on a map) you would be able to use SVG paths and link the paths with javascript.

How do I use my Zen on Windows 7? Any other way?

I downloaded all of the drivers, but the most recent driver for XP will not install for some reason. There aren't any for Vista or Windows 7.
I am stuck with driver .2..
Windows media player won't play the files I have because the driver is outdated.
I download the Nomad Explorer and it won't let me copy the files over (Access denied).
Is there anything I can do?
Thank you.
Creative Zen Xtra 20 GB USB 2.0.
I know the player is old. I just want to get some music off it.

Does this work with the 20GB Creative Zen Xtra USB 2.0?
The link is for a Zen NX from what I briefly read.
It works for the older Creative players that DO NOT have PFS firmwares. I have used this method to install (on a Vista computer) for using a Jukebox 3 & Jukebox2 players that I have in addition to a Zen NX. I do not use MediaSource5 to load my players since I do have the PFS plug-in installed for MediaSource5. I use the Creative Nomad Explorer version 3.0.0 to load the players. It's the last file on this page. http://support.creative.com/download...le=033&nPage=2 I can't say for sure if it works with just the driver & the Nomad Explorer but you could try it. (createRestore Point so you can un-do any changes) BTW I used driver version 2.0.00 first item on this page.

How can I install thunderbolt cable

How can I install thunderbolt cable help me.

I think Apple has not squashed the "there will be no new Mac Pro" rumors because...
... some portion of the market wants a high compute-power Mac with Thunderbolt TODAY.
If that includes you, you are supposed to rush out to your Apple Store and buy a new iMac TODAY, not wait until Intel has the next generation Server-class chips available for a new Mac Pro.
Many of today's iMacs seem to out-compute many Mac Pro models. But the iMacs lack larger ECC memory, expandable graphics, PCI slots, and multiple internal drive bays. Compute power is not the whole story.

Hi Armin.S,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question. If you are asking about the system requirements for running various versions of Windows under Bootcamp, or just more generally how to set up Bootcamp on your Mac, you may find the following articles/pages helpful:

Hold down the Option key while you boot your Mac. Then, it should show you a selection of devices. Click your flash drive and it will boot from that.

How can i install windows games in my macbook pro

I m a game lover but since i've macbook pro,i haven't played any game on my macbook...so guys please tell me how can i install windows games to my macbook pro.

As eww said, that computer isn't specifically made for gaming. To get advanced graphics in a game, your computer needs what is called a "discrete" graphics processor, or GPU. This means a seperate chip that processes graphics. In Apple laptops, these are only found in the 15" and 17" MacBook Pro. It is not common to find these in laptops in general that are not expensive and high-end. What you have in yours is an "on-board" or "integrated" GPU. This means that graphics processing is done by a small portion of your main processor (the Intel i5 board). This takes away a portion of primary prossessing and dedicates it to graphics. This works perfectly find in most scenarios, but video rendering, gaming, and 3-D graphics tend to suffer. Most high-end, modern games require discrete GPUs to run at full quality these days.
As far as running Windows 7 and Mac OS both, yes you absolutely can. If you install Windows 7 via Bootcamp (this would require you to have a Windows 7 CD), when you turn on your computer it will default to opening up in Mac OS. But if you hold down the Option key (bottom of the keyboard next to the Command button) while the computer is booting up, it will ask you if you want to open Windows or Mac OS.

How can I install Snow Leopard on my 15" MacBook Pro without using its DVD drive?

I'm assuming your dvd drive is broken? if you have a thumb drive large enough (8GB or better), you can use another computer to make a bootable image from the install dvd to the thumb drive. then you can install from the the thumb drive.

Just double-click the zip file to open it.
