Install Win XP,Vista or 7 to external HDD
Hi there!
Can I install Win to external HDD or SD card by bootcamp?
The external port has to be a native port on the motherboard.
In the sense that USB or Firewire won't support booting, there are PC boards with eSATA that can, but you also in those situations need access to the BIOS boot manager - as I understand it and from my own PCs.
If you could tap the internal SATA port you could, but what is the sense of that. Hybrid systems with an SSD + 1TB internal drives, not sure how they are wired or there is the OWC kit for iMac now to add eSATA off the motherboard.

Installed, Win 7 Won't Boot from Second HDD
Hi ya'll,
I've successfully installed Win7 64 Pro on a second internal HD on my fall '12 MBP (X.8.3), located in the optical bay. After having re-attached the first drive, Win7 shows up in the boot selection menu, but when selected, does not boot (error: "please insert boot disk and press any key").
My install process was as follows:
Format second drive into two partitions [OS Extended, FAT32] using disk utility, making sure that the second partition is provided a master boot record.
Disconnect primary drive (SSD), so that the second hdd is recognized as bootable from the Win7 installer.
Boot from prepared bootcamp thumbdrive using a fresh ISO.
Use windows installer to format FAT32 partition as NTFS.
Install windows
Install drivers
Update Win 7 and bootcamp drivers
Power off
Recconnect primary drive (SSD)
Power on
Win 7 shows in boot menu. Instead of working, dead-ends at "no bootable device".
Can still boot from SSD or thumbdrive, but not Win7 partition
Arggggh!
Is there a setting related to the HD controller that needs to be tweaked to make this work? Is there a known issue with the controller firmware? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What program i can install to make my external Hdd work on NTFS ?
what program i can install on my Lion to make my external Hdd work on NTFS ? My NTFS-3G is not working anymore. Any suggestion?? Thanke.
I thought this to be true, until I was on the Mapquest website and tried to use the print button. I used Mapquest with firefox 3.6 and had no problem with the buttons or any printing problems at all.
Then I upgraded to the new Firefox 4.0.1 and now I can not print maps from Mapquest. Is there another program that I can use to take the place of smart print, until there is an update that is compatible with Firefox 4.0.1? -

Kaushal.(1) To be blunt you dont have enough RAM for starters. You might get aware with 2GB, you probably really need 3GB or perhaps 2.5GB might just do.
(2) VMware is a company who produce several products, i assume you are talking about VMware server ... but I may be wrong.
(3) I assume you are retaining a windows OS on your laptop., but again i could be wrong.
Its not really in my nature to have Oracle Databases on external USB drives, but this stack will probably just work. (Simply because VMmare server will use a simply file for its virtual disk(s) on the USB)
I would also not be surprised if you has issues with the Solaris graphics.
In general I suspect your auggested setup may be at the least troublesome.
What I have said above are opinions, it is not fully researched and I accept corrections. -
How do i Install Win 7 to an External HD
I have iMac 27" 3ghz Intel core 2 duo and love it! I am also a gamer and despise the fact that gaming studios don't make enough games for Macs. So I've tried using Win XP on my mac via boot-camp by dual booting but was not satisfied and didn't like having windows software directly on my apple machine. I don't want to give up gaming entirely on computers so........
I would like to install Win 7 to my External HD (LACIE Rugged ALL-Terrain 250GB 5400 RPM 2.5" USB 2.0 / IEEE 1394a / 1394b External Hard Drive), but i have heard that Win 7 is a little tricky when trying to install it on a machine with multiple HD's using different Operating Systems. Im not quite sure what all the issues are, but if you know how to properly install Win 7 on to an external HD so i can dual boot from that HD to play windows based games than please help! =)I've not tried it myself, but I've read that if you use a third-party EFI tool like "rEFIt" and you are willing to make a custom install disc (DVD), it is possible. Just do a little Google searching and you should find the same links I found that talk about doing this.
Another thing I have not tried, but should theoretically work would be to use a "boot from VHD" configuration, where you put the VHD on an external drive. I don't remember where I read about booting Windows 7 from a VHD, but I suspect it was on MSDN. -
Installing win XP on external esata drive failed
Hello,
I have a problem with a lenovo T520. I installed win XP sp3 on its internal harddrive and it working fine. I have an external harddrive that I connect to the laptop via the eSata port. I want now to install additional win XP sp3 on the external drive to get a multiboot system.
But while setup, and after the first booting screen of windows, a blue screen of death appears with c0000218 unknown hardware error message.
I examined a little bit, and I saw that while win XP is booting it switch off the external harddrive (or reset the eSata port), and I think that what create the problem,
So is there a way to solve this problem.
Thanks for any help!I'm not sure if you can get it to boot normally out of the eSATA port. With XP on USB installs, you have to get it to load the USBSTOR driver early in boot.
You'd probably get better luck on the MSFN XP subforum with this question.

How to Install Win Vista -English Version on my Toshiba Satellite L300-2CZ
Hello !
I am an Indian, I purchased *"Toshiba Satellite L300-2CZ"* in France. I don't know French Language. I am an software guy.
One my family friend purchased it in on-line in 2009. It is good configuration but Bad-luck for me is, it contains *French keyboard and French Windows Vista*.
Anybody know how to solve this problem?
I am facing lot of problems while while writing software code by using this Frech keyboard because we use English- Qwerty keyboard.
*And Is it possible to install Toshiba's Windows-Vista -English version on it.*
I installed generic Win-Vista home edition on it , it is working but there is lot drivers missing, So I am not able to use my Laptop at minimum.
*Could you give me some information/suggestion to solve my problem.*
Thank you,
Regards,

India.It's not a problem to dowload all drivers needed either from Toshiba support sites or other good places.
You need at least Chipset+Audio+Video+Network+Wireless drivers and (maybe) some additional like Touchpad, Quick buttons, Bluetooth, Web camera.
In rare cases you can google drivers for unknown device (or just recognise it) through vendor/product IDs in device manager (VID_xxxx&PID_yyyy string in device properties).
Problem with keyboard is simple (in most cases): buy keyboard stickers like this
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=english+Keyboard+STICKERS
It's not perfect solution but very cheap'n'fast.
Alternative solutions are laser engraved letters on your keyboard or new english keyboard from Toshiba service (I can't even imagine its price).
Guess you can't install *Toshiba's* Vista other than bundled with your laptop. But you can buy any boxed version of Windows meets your requirements, even Windows 7. There is no difference between *Toshiba's* and boxed version of Windows exept license limits, so I advise you to think about boxed Win7.

Installing Windows Vista on external HDD
I know there's going to be problems and most people would be happy just to say 'it can't be done', but I really need to install Windows Vista on an external HDD using FireWire 800.
I have read some brief info on the Internet that some people have achieved this for Windows XP using an external USB 2 mass storage device 'HDD' (and even for large capacity flash drives).
Personally, I only intend to use a hand full of programs for Vista on a regular basis and prefer not to install what maybe a more stable and reliable XP version of Windows due to having such a dull looking interface that makes you want to jump off the nearest cliff (the interface and look is that depressing.. Really!). Anyway, I have the new MacBook Pro 17" 'unibody' and an external buss powered (on 800) G-Tech G-Drive mini with Firewire 800/400 & USB 2. I have already formatted the external G-Drive mini and installed Mac OS-X 10.5 on it and it works flawlessly via Firewire 800 once you've chosen it as the 'start-up disk' within System Settings (great for testing and not worrying about things too much if there's problems, having kept the MacBook Pro's own internal HDD intact and clean). I plan on partitioning the external G-Drive's 250GB capacity equally and thus have the mentioned Mac OS-X on one partion and hopefully eventually Windows Vista on the other equal partion.
This arrangement (if possible) I feel compelled to do because even though I can very easily install Windows Vista onto my MacBook Pro's internal HDD using Bootcamp with minimal hassel, I really don't want to infect my MacBook Pro's internal drive with Windows and all the troubles that Windows can bring. I feel I must keep my MacBook's internal drive clean and trouble free from any possible Windows viruses and spyware, besides I need the maximum capacity of the internal drive. If this all worked, then I would dismount the internal drive within disk utility once booted up in Windows, thus keeping it isolated from any Windows prone attacks or problems.
Only thing now is I have to find a way if there is one, Boot Camp won't partition the external FireWire 800 drive to ready it for Windows and Windows Vista may not have adequate drivers to enable it's boot from FireWire 800, although I could resort to the slower USB 2 interface that the drive also has on-board.
Anyone with any solutions? Would using Drive Genius to partition the external drive (on the fly) and readying the intended Windows Vista partition to a FAT 32 structure, help start the process?Thoughts? ... I have plenty!
For now, I've had no choice but to install Vista on my MacBook Pro's internal drive using BootCamp, it will only be for the short term until I can find a way to do this on the external drive... it's also another worry to know that I may have problems with the 'boot table' after a few months, as you previously mentioned.
So setting up Windows Vista, updating, tweaking settings and getting it all working so that it functions properly to a half decent state is such a lengthy laborious tediously frustrating task with windows and taking huge amounts of time that it reminded me of just how much I have recently grown to hate windows and it now amazes me to think that until a year and a half ago I wouldn't move/budge from windows because of all the PC programs I had, but now I'm overwhelmingly relieved I made the jump and wonder why I put myself uneccessarily through so much pain and tourment.. well, even now windows isn't giving up without a fight as it continues to leave it's legacy because although I've now got it reasonably functioning under 'BootCamp' having installed Vista on my Mac's internal drive (for now), windows now bombards me with a routine of error messages upon boot-up stating:-
"Warning: Unrecognized partition table for drive 80. Please rebuild it using a Microsoft-compatible FDISK tool(err=4). Current C/H/S=266305/255/63 (hd0,2) Filesystem type is ntfs, partition type 0x7 chainloader /bootmgr"
it then repeats that error message several times during a few black screens (not the infamous blue screen) and on one occasion the error message refers to "(hidden sectors=0x1ee648800)" and there's plenty more double dutch info before it finally load Vista.. (I've only had Vista installed on BootCamp for a couple of day's now - since this reply) I'm considering trying my luck with installing Vista 64bit edition, having read that it is compatible on the Mac Pro and MacBook Pro's.
Meanwhile... with regard to using an external hard drive for a possible bootable Windows Vista over Firewire 800, I may have to consider the two 'close' alternative methods for doing this.. the first being the alleged workaround-fix shared on the internet for doing this using the USB 2 conection method, unfortunately this requires some time spent on editing some of the startup/installation sequence files which have to be extracted from the Windows installation '.iso' disk image using winiso, then edited and then inserted back into the '.iso' Windows install disk to burn onto a new DVD, trouble is this takes time which I don't have and it may only be a workaround solution for the very dull and bland looking windows XP version only which I don't want... Therefore I might have to go along with the more expensive option of having to invest in a slightly (actually a lot) more costly version of small portable external bus powered hard drive, the G-Tech G-Raid mini2 which has the inclusion of the eSATA interface making it a quad interface, therefore possibly enabling windows to boot from this as windows requires SATA connection for boot-ability. The only drawback for me personally with this second method is a). that I've already purchased the G-Drive mini1, b). the G-Raid mini2 is very costly, c). the mini2 is double the size being double the thickness and therefore not as tiny as the mini1 which you can squeeze into your MacBook Pro case's pocket, d). the mini2 will have a heavier battery drain having its two disks spinning instead of one like the mini1, and e). you have to have two cables connected between MacBook and mobile hard drive instead of one, one cable drawing the power from the Firewire 800 bus and the second cable transferring the data between the eSATA connection (if it works).
Alternatively.. Apple may save the day and at some point release a driver for BootCamp to enable Windows Vista 'Firewire 800 boot-ability support'. That would be very good! (but doubt that would ever happen with Apple's strange outlook on Firewire of late)
Or, G-Tech may put an eSATA connection interface/port on an updated version of the tiny, less power draining and more budget conscious G-Drive mini1 in the near future! (but that may be unlikely as well)
So, I'm not sure what to do at this moment. -
Error trying to install Win 8.1 x64 Enterprise
Brand new iMac 27", fully loaded, 1 TB SSD, 32 GB RAM, running Mavericks 10.9.3. Trying to install Win 8.1 x64 Enterprise (from MSDN).
Downloaded the ISO file and license and used Boot Camp to install the files and Apple Support files to a 16 GB USB 3.0 thumbdrive.
Used Boot Camp to repartition the 1 TB SSD to set a Windows partion of 256 GB, then the computer rebooted into Windows Setup.
Came to the drives listing, selected the BOOTCAMP parition (Drive 0, Partition 4, 239 GB) and formated it, then clicked on NEXT.
Thought for a while, then it came up with this error message: "We couldn't install Windows in the location you chose. Please check your media drive. Here's more info about what happened: 0x80300002"
Got some hits on Google about issues with VISTA, or with Intel processors, but, nothing specific.
Checked USB thumb drive with Norton, no issues, CHKDSK, no issues.
Have repeated the entire process twice, including restoring the patition and recreating it, and rebuilding the USB Thumbdrive.
Any ideas on what to do?
Thanks!More sadness. I finally started getting the BSOD as soon as Windows booted, and, I could not restart or shutdown the computer...had to power off. That, after a few times, corrupted my BootCamp partition. I messed around with trying to fix, but, no joy.
Redid the partition, checked all drives for errors (fixed permissions on the Mac HD...LOT of errors), and created a new partition.
Used USB 2.0 (VERY SLOW) thumbdrive and had all external drives removed, and installed Win 8.1 Pro, not Enterprise this time.
Got it back up, patched it, configured it, put Norton 360 on it (have on all my computers and iOS devices) shut down, and hooked up the external drives. Booted up and...got the BSOD.
This time I had Windows Debugger loaded, and after the BSOD could reboot, go back intoWindows, and Debug.
Culprit seems to be Norton--in particular a Norton Storage driver. Will be contacting vendor to fix.

MacBook Pro 8,1 – Intel Core i5 – 2.23 GHz (early 2011) New with OSX 10.6 – current on all updates.
I successfully installed rEFit. I used Boot Camp to install Win 7. All was great.
Then installed debian 6. Somehow after the debian install and restart (I know this sounds crazy) but I am now reduced to Win 7 only. rEFit is not present when rebooting nor is OSX or debian. Further, I am unable to force the install DVD to launch when rebooting, by holding C, D or F8. The Option key brings me to the grey screen with a padlock. I have attempted the root and local pw- no go. Restart holding D takes me to the windows boot manager. I have attempted several options within the Advanced Options; including – Repair Your computer, safe mode and “last known good config,” All of which did nothing.
I can see all my OSX files within win7. I tried to install the OSX within windows. Ya right, that did nothing..
I only desire to get back to OSX...
What are my options??Yes, you royally hosed up your machine.
You should first try to get your files off, any way you can to a external drive.
Your going to need to hold c and boot from the disk that came with your computer and a couple of screens in under the menu is a option for Disk Utility.
Select your drive and Erase with Security Option Zero, format the drive HFS+ Journaled and when that's finished (about a hour or so) then quit and install OS X from the installer.
I hope this works, but I suspect it won't. Others have hosed their machines trying to use a Linux disk without proper partition formatting too.
Another option might be to use another Mac to c boot off the Snow Leopard disk and install OS X onto a external drive, take that to the problem Mac and try holding option and booting off of it to erase your internal drive.
You could replace the drive.

Is this holding option while booting?
There was someone else around here who hosed their Mac with a Linux disk too. Try to find it. -
Problem installing Win XP Pro SP2 on 2008 Mac Pro running 10.6.8
Okay, I have never setup or ran a bootcamp partition so I apologize in advance for my ignorance on the subject. I have been attempting to install win xp pro (SP2). I am using the Boot Camp Assistant v3.0.4. I have created a 32GB FAT32 partition and at the point I click Continue Installation (with the XP Pro disc in the drive) the computer reboots to supposedly install.
What happens instead is I get a revolving censorship/ban circle icon, folder with question mark and apple logo. It just continuously will flash between those 3 icons until I restart.
Here's what I've tried...
-removing all other drives. I'm attempting to install on the boot drive which is in bay 1.
-removed all external devices only things plugged in are my usb keyboard and DVI monitor
-deleting and recreating the partition
-I have the xp pro cd in the top drive and the snow leopard cd in the bottom drive (both internal cd/dvd drives)

Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro2,1

No matter what I try I am met with the same results. I have held down the option key and manually selected the windows xp cd. It seems to be booting but immediately turns off my DVI monitor which, well, makes it impossible for me to actually know what is happening. I do have a nvidia GeForce 8800 which only has two DVI ports off the back. I do have the adapter and an old VGA monitor I could pull out of the attic but would rather not unless that is my only option. Can someone in the community please point me in the right direction?
Many, many, many thanks!
Curtis
OKC, OKUpdate: my problem was solved by getting my VGA monitor out of the attic. Once windows was done and I ran the setup.exe off the Snow Leopard CD, all of the drivers were updated to allow me to switch back over to my apple cinema display.
Also, I did need to hold down the option key to select the windows CD to install...and again to select the windows partition to boot but so far everything is going well with Bootcamp 3.0.4 and XP SP2...other than it is windows.

Trying to install win xp pro on Satellite A200-TH1 (PSAE3C)
Hello everyone,
I just bought this laptop. It came with vista. I want to install xp pro on it, I mean keeping vista as well. So I did partition, and allocated 72GB for xp pro. Now the problem is that, xp pro install cd does not recognize the harddrive. It says no harddrive present.
It is a SATA drive. So I did some googling on it, and found that xp pro does not have SATA drivers so that is why it can not see the hard drive. I need to install the SATA drivers with the xp pro by pressing F6...and blah blah. Since this laptop did not come with the floppy, so I found on some forums to include the drivers with xp pro cd and make an iso image and try to run it.
I tried many times but every time it gives me error that cable is broken. Can anyone pls let me know what is wrong? And also if someone can guide me to get the right drivers for my SATA drive and intel chipset 965PM...If I go on to the Intel website...
They are all .EXE files. I want driver files only, so i can insert them in the xp cd. Thanks for your help and guidence in adavance.
Adam
Hello All,
I was able to get the drivers...now I came accross another hurdle... When I put the XP installation cd (which is an ISO bootable disk.. this includes xp sp2 and realtek nic drivers) it gives me message that checking for media..RTL8100E/8101E v1.02....test failed...check if the cable is connected...
Any ideas? What should I do now? Any suggestion would be appreciated...thanks
Adam

AdamThanks for the feedback.
In fact the XP drivers for the A200 series are not released on this time. I didnt find it on the Tosh page.
But there are a lot of threads about XP drivers and most of them provide a great links to a XP drivers which functions on a Satellite A200;

Satellite 850 - is it possible to i install Win 7 - If yes, how?
I was in a rush to get a laptop for a job and got a Toshiba Satellite 850 which comes with windows 8 pre-installed.
I absolutely detest it and assumed I can simply wipe the whole thing and put on a windows 7.
After reading through lots of advice forums it seems that this machine is built for windows 8 and I can't remove it easily. I am so utterly and totally disappointed.
Is this really the case? Please tell me it's not.
I urgently need a reply as I start work in the morning and I need Win7 installed for work.You are really a funny guy You blame notebook manufacturer because you are not able to install Win 7?
I assume you are doing this out of ignorance... you are unaware how to do that exactly...
First of ALL notebooks from ALL notebook manufacturers which are preinstalled with Win 8 supports secure boot and UEFI BIOS. These are Microsoft requirements.
Secondly: Its possible to install Windows 7 on all notebooks; no matter which system was preinstalled. But you have to know how to do that...
You said you are owner of Satellite 850. But what series? L, A C??
Now some basic info:
To boot from external sources: CD/DVD drive, USB, etc. you have to disable secure boot and have to change from UEFI to CSM mode.
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03F30002R01.htm
It seems that you done this thats good.
Keep the SATA option in AHCI mode.
During the Win 7 installation setup, you will be asked to add drivers (SATA drivers)
Download the driver from Toshiba EU page, put it on the USB stick, and add it to the Win 7 installation.
Now the Win 7 should see the HDD and you should be able to install Win 7 on new partition. -
"Non-system disk Press any key to reboot"- Trying to install Win 7 on Mac Mini
Hello. I'm trying to install Windows 7 on a new-model Mac Mini ('Late 2012'), which I just bought from Apple. [Specs: 1 TB Fusion drive, 2.6 GHz intel Core i7, 16 GB RAM, OS X Mavericks (latest), Graphics: Intel HD graphics 4000, Screen: LG Flatron 24"].
After following instructions on Bootcamp, I tried installing it through my external USB Apple Superdrive (DVD), but for some reason as soon as the system finishes getting things ready and reboots to begin installing Windows 7, I get a black screen with an error message as follows: "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key". Pressing the keys on my keyboard does nothing (even though it's a wired model, not a wireless one.) I'm forced to do a hard shutdown using the power button and hold down the Option key in order to get the system to show the Mac HD where OS X is. It also shows the Windows DVD as another option, but when I select it and the system boots, I just get the same error message again. So I go back to a hard shutdown and reboot to go into OS X again.
Not sure what to do, I did some online research and in one post in the Frequently Asked Questions for Bootcamp, it says for installing Win 7 and Win 8, the computer won't work with external USB drives (*totally nuts in my opinion - Apple has to fix this stuff if they want to entice Windows users into buying their sleek, quiet hardware). Instead, the post recommends creating a Windows 7 ISO file from my Windows 7 DVD and putting it on a USB thumbdrive that Bootcamp is going to use to put all the Apple/Windows drivers on for the installation process. I'm also told I have to unplug my Superdrive (no explanation given for why). So I do all this and get Bootcamp Assistant running again. Unfortunately, as soon as the system reboots after going through all the usual preparation steps, I get another black screen with a new error message: "Non-system disk Press any key to reboot". So I'm at a loss for what to do next.
(I've also have an iMac that I bought more than a year ago that I also put Windows 7 on, with no problems that time. Go figure.)
If anyone here has an good answer for how to proceed, I need to know. Thanks in advance!Here they are:
