Leovo G510 Windows 8 Install Disk

Hi,
Recently I reinstalled Ubuntu and in the process I selected replace existing Ubuntu installation, which as a result overrode all my partitions. As a result of this, I lost the Windows 8 recovery image and was wondering if there is a way I could get an ISO of this to burn to a disk and reinstall. I have my product key to use when I get it back.
Thanks!

  • Windows Vista install disk for my Mac?

    I have just installed Windows vista onto my Mac but when using boot camp it only gives me the option of creating a Windows 7 install disk.  Does anybody know where I can get a Windows Vista install disk?  Thanks

    No doubt if you Google for it you will find vendors. Check with amazon.com, too.

  • Mac Pro missing "Create Windows 7 Install Disk"

    Okay well when i try to use bootcamp as i already bought a copy of windows 7. The Create Windows 7 Install Disk option is not there for me. In every tutorial to setup bootcamp has had that option. Is my bootcamp messed up or did i do something wron? Specs: 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon 6GB 1066Mhz OS X 10.8.2 Thanks

    Your Mac Pro must be newer than a Mac Pro 5,1, and must have a minimum ROM version in order to use the USB installer you are looking for.  If your machine is older, or doesn't have the correct ROM versions, then you need to use the "old fashioned" disc install method....

  • Why can't a choose to create a Windows 7 install disk on my 2010 macbook air?

    It is a 2010 macbook air, with lion 10.7.2 and bootcamp 4.0.1. the option to create a windows 7 install disk is greyed out, i have a trial version from microsoft website, but i also have a downloaded windows 7 both of them are .iso, i also have a 4gb usb in. could someone explain to me how to fix this?

    You might follow this procedure...
    http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-20020513-285/install-win-7-on-macbook-air-fr om-a-usb-drive/
    Note that to start the procedure, you will need a Windows computer to create the USB install stick.
    I have an iMac with Windows 7 running via BootCamp, but I really don't like the BootCamp setup mainly because it's necessary to reboot the computer every time you switch from one OS to the other.
    A few days ago I got a new MBA 128GB model which I decided to put Windows on via Parallels.  I have an old stand-alone DVD drive I plugged into the MacAir which immediately recognized the DVD drive.  I then installed Parallels on the MacAir.  When that was finished, it prompted me for a Windows installation disk, which I then put in the DVD drive. 
    Away it went with very little requests for inputs from me.  In a short time, I had Windows 7 up and running.  So far it looks like a great setup.  With a few other programs, the MacAir reports that it still has 88GB free out of the 128 GB SSD.

  • Boot Camp not able to download Windows 7 Install Disk

    I am trying to install Windows 8 on my 2011 Mac Mini. I have a Windows 8 disk, 8GB bootable USB drive, and am trying to download from Boot Camp: 1) a Windows 7 install disk, 2) latest Windows support from Apple, all to install  3) the Windows 8 OS on my yet to be partitioned hard drive.
    It goes about about 20% into the process and stops with this error message: " Your bootable USB drive could not be created".
    What am I doing wrong or missing?
    Thanks much for any gudiacne or suggestions.

  • How to "Create a Windows 7 install disk" on Mountian Lion w/Bootcamp 5

    It's basically the same way you create one with previous Bootcamp & OS verisons.
    Finder -> Applications -> Utilities -> Select Bootcamp -> Show Package Contents
    Open "Info.plist"
    Scroll until you see whats listed below.
    <key>PreUSBBootSupportedModels</key>
              <array>
                        <string>MacBook7,1</string>
                        <string>MacBookAir3,2</string>
                        <string>MacBookPro8,3</string>
                        <string>MacPro5,1</string>
                        <string>Macmini4,1</string>
                        <string>iMac12,2</string>
                        <string>iMac11,2</string>
              </array>
    Remove the "Pre" in "PreUSBBootSupportedModels"
    Then it will ask if you want to make a copy of the file, click yes.
    Now in the new "plist" file cut out "MacBook7,1" in the top line and replace with your Model Identifier (Can be found in "System Information" under "Hardware Overview")
    Save this file as "Info.plist"
    After save the old "Info.plist" file as "Old.Info.plist" and move to the trash can (May as for log in info to do so)
    Then after that file is in the trash move the NEW "Info.plist" (The one you edited) to the Bootcamp Content folder in place of the other one.
    If everything is done right you should now be able to "select/disselect" the "Create a Windows 7 install disk" in bootcamp.
    You're welcome,
    Avery

    I recently bought my Mac MIni 2010 Model, yes i know, 2010 Model?! But that's what i can afford for now since i already have an Apple Cinema display, an Apple Wireless keyboard and a Magic Mouse.
    When i tried opening the Boot camp assistant, since my Mac has an optical drive, only two options were shown and the "Create Windows USB install disk" option wasn't there at all.
    So i searched the net for help and i found only one that answers my query (http://forums.atomicmpc.com.au/index.php?showtopic=51873), however, after following the tutorial, it didn't work and my Boot Camp assistant ended up crashing (quit unexpectedly). So i reverted the process and my Boot camp assistant went back, up and running but still no third option.
    So disappointed, i went back to the "info.plist" that i was working on (using Xcode) and tried to mess around with the contents.
    Then after over an hour of trial and error, i decided to just revert the changes that i did and quit. As i was clicking on the , and because i was a noob, i deleted by mistake the entire array of strings containing "Boot ROM Versions" that allows some mac models to boot windows using usb and when i click cmd+z, it just won't undo it.
    So i guess, i was screwd! So nervous that i thought i killed the app, i closed the "info.plist" and checked if the Boot Camp assistant would still launch.
    To my surprise, it actually opened! And to my astonishment, it even shows the third option! I guess, no one has ever did this, as we speak!
    So you can call me an Accidental Hacker LOL! To all of you who understands fully the function of "info.plist" - any thoughts?

  • Bootcamp Assistant: "'Create Windows 7 Install Disk Option' Missing" Fix Problem

    Firstly, sorry if this is in the incorrect fourm area, it's related with the Mountain Lion OSx software, so I posted here.
    I am Running OSX 10.8.3
    I'm trying to install bootcamp with a .ISO and a USB Drive. You need to make a Windows 7 install disk, and Bootcamp Assistant can do that for you, but the option isn't showing up.
    I am running OSX 10.8.3 M-Lion
    The link below shows how to fix the issue......
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD4kgJQ-r0c
    I did everything as it says, until the 2:20 mark in the video, where he tells you to go to the USBSupportedModels and copy the first string that follows....
    I couldn't find it,however,I found a similar one, shown below. I beleive it's the thing that I need to duplicate, but the strings, shown below, are considerably different.
    <key>PreUSBBootSupportedModels</key>
              <array>
                        <string>MacBook7,1</string>
                        <string>MacBookAir3,2</string>
                        <string>MacBookPro8,3</string>
                        <string>MacPro5,1</string>
                        <string>Macmini4,1</string>
                        <string>iMac12,2</string>
    If you look in the Top comments section, there are people, running the same OSX as mine (10.8.3) saying that it's not working, with 2 people rating it up. There is a reply saying that it does work. However, I know if somthing is messed up, the Assistant would be rendered unusable, a risk i am hesitating to take. I Googled everywhere, but all I'm finding is the same fix for USBSupported over and over again.
    Has anyone found a correct or know of a fix for this? OR should I just go ahead and do as the video says?
    Thanks!

    Don't modify that file because anyway it won't work. The reason is that Apple has determined the Macs that support the Windows installation from a USB drive by their firmware. It means that if you modify that file you will be able to create a Windows 7 USB drive, but if you try to install Windows, your computer will show up a black screen in the next startup telling you that it hasn't found any bootable device.
    You can edit that file if you want, but it's not sure that the option will show up in Boot Camp Assistant, and you won't be able to install Windows through a USB drive because the firmware of your computer doesn't support this

  • Help when i boot into the windows 7 instal disk it freezes at windows loading files

    Help when i boot into the windows 7 instal disk it freezes at windows loading files.

    1. Have you tried both Alt keys - maybe your Alt key is dead.
    2. Do you have wireless keyboard? Have you tried to change batteries? USB Keyboard?
    3. If your Win is installed correctly then you have also installed all windows support software.
    There should be Startup manager like on the Mac (next to the clock little bootcamp app or in control pannel) to restart your Mac into the Mac partition.

  • Boot camp not showing ''Create a Windows 7 install disk''

    So i am trying install windows 7 64 bit version on my 2008 macbook pro and i dont know if this is the problem or not, it doesnt show ''Create a Windows 7 install disk''.
    The other thing that i have not made clear is, when doing a windows 7 cd, do i need to burn ISO file on DVD or should i open it and burn all the files inside the iso image, to the disk?
    Is there any specific ways or versions of Windows 7 for bootcamp or i can dowload any tipe of windows 7, put it on cd and use it as a bootable CD?
    P.S.: I already had windows 7 ultimate 64 bit installed on the macbook. I installed it from my friends copy of Windows 7 Ultimate and i cant find that CD anymore, so when i tried to do a new copy of windows on CD and do the bootcamp it didnt recognize it, like there was no installation disk. That means i should make a bootable CD with windows 7 files on it or what?
    Thanks for help.

  • My imac wont read Windows 8 install disk

    Hello,
    i am trying to install windows 8 using boot camp. Boot camp is up to date. when i put in the windows 8 disk (brand new) into my Imac I can hear it trying and then it just shoots it out. I tired this with a windows 7 install disk also and it did the same thing.

    Hello christopherfromconcord,
    The following article contains information that may be helpful in getting your iMac's optical drive to read your Windows install discs.
    Apple Computers: Troubleshooting the slot-loading SuperDrive
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2801
    The drive accepts discs but they do not mount or are automatically ejected
    Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
    The MacBook Air SuperDrive is designed to be used with MacBook Air and Mac mini computers that do not have a built-in optical drive. For best results, connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive directly to the computer's USB port instead a USB hub.
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
    Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. The System Profiler or System Information may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard or earlier: Open Apple System Profiler by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click More Info.
    OS X 10.7 Lion or later: Open System Information by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click System Report.
    If the disc continues to not be recognized, contact Apple, an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store for additional troubleshooting, evaluation, or service.
    Cheers,
    Allen

  • How do I find the .iso file from my windows 7 install disk?

    I am trying to install windows 7 on my new macbook air. I have a copy of windows7 install disk but as there is no cd drive I am having difficulty. I cannot figure out how to find the .iso file to put on a usb in order to install it.
    Can anyone help please?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can only get Windows 7 on a ISO file if you purchased Windows 7 from the Microsoft Store as a download, so this option isn't available for you.
    In your case, I recommend you to get an external optical drive (any external optical drive will work) and install Windows from the DVD. Doing this, you will save headaches

  • My iMac is no longer recognising my windows 7 install disk.

    My 27in iMac is failing to recognise the windows install disk as I try and install it in a virtual machine using VMware fusion 3. It has managed this before, and I had been running it successfully for over a year but (as is often the way with windows) a clean install was needed. The iMac is still running snow leopard ( as before) it and fusion are patched up to date. Nothing different than before. I've even tried a different windows 7 disk and the iMac simply ejects it with no message. It does manage to recognise every other disk it insert. No messages given. Any clues out there.

    appears that apple has changed SMB code, and now its not possible login from windows on mac.
    i installed snow leopard and now works fine.
    apple is capable to make it run paying new license of smb code, but isnted of this, apple has created new protocol smbx and now, all others need to adapt your code to apple..
    bad movement.. i am thinking sell imac and no back to apple anymore..

  • 2008 MacBook Boot Camp Assistant doesn't recognize Windows XP install disk

    I'm trying to install Boot Camp, so I put in my Windows XP installation disk, which the computer recognizes because it shows up on the desktop, but when I run the Boot Camp Assistant, it says "The installer disk could not be found. Insert your Windows installer disc and wait a few seconds for the disc to be recognized."
    Any help?

    That the disk is recognized in Leopard does not mean it's the right disk.
    The Windows disk must be XP w/SP2 embedded, or Vista.
    It must also be a full install disk, not an update or restore disk, and not a ISO-image disk.

  • Issues with BootCamp and mounted windows 8 install disk

    I've been trying to install Windows 8 from a mounted Windows 8 System Builder install disk. When I mount the ISO and try to use bootcamp to install windows 8 the bootcamp application will not recognize the install disk I have mounted. Any issues? I've also attempted to install the disk on USB with no luck. The reason I need the mounted ISO is because my DVD drive is busted. I created ISO on a friends macbook pro by using disk utility. I have the dmg file, cdr file, and iso file but have had no luck with any of them. Can anyone help? I'd really like not to have to have to buy an external DVD drive.

    Google is your friend. Easy? Probably not but it appears doable. Proceed at your own risk.

    And what is the deal with the PreUSBBooSupportedModels stuff?

    Your computer isn't compatible with the option to install Windows through a USB drive. "PreUSBBootSupportedModels" have a list of the Macs which can't install Windows through a USB drive, and as you can see, there's a "iMac12,2" which belongs to the Mid 2011 27-inch iMac.
    If you want to make a Windows 7 USB drive, change "iMac12,2" by another iMac like "iMac11,1", so you will be able to create a Windows 7 USB drive. However, you won't be able to install Windows through a USB drive, because it's restricted by firmware and you can't do anything
