Missing boot-up file /BDC

I was playing on my New Lenovo windows 8.1 pc and one day it just turned off, so i booted it back up, it came up saying i was missing boot-up file /BDC now i am familiar with computers, i have built my own before and am very good with computer hardware,
i know next to nothing about OS and i didnt get a windows CD with  my computer so i cant recover from a disc, is there anything i can do, seeing as the computer was loaded with 8.1 when i bought it, im guessing no..

Hi,
Any update? Did your issue resolve? In generally, OEM will provide a recovery partition. I suggest you follow that instruction to access WinRE to recovery your system.

  • Cant boot missing hal.dll file - HELP!

    I have just installed my new MSI board, and I have a dreadful problem.  I cannot get my computer to boot.  It tells me that windows cannot start because the following file is mssing or corrupted: Hal.dll
    In fact the file is there.  I know this because if |I leave the windows install disk in the computer it boots ok.  I have tried using the rebuild command from the recovery console, and the repair option, but so far it does not work.
    Has anyone else had a similar problem?  I had no problem with my old board, and so I thought it might be something to do with this new board.  Are my settings incorrect?
    I have SCSI as well as IDE drives, and I cannot tell if the boot.ini file is pointing to the right drive, but I suspect it is.
    Please help!
    Dan

    hal.dll is a dll which interfaces your hardware to the operating system (Hardware Adapter Layer).
    I don't know which operating system you are using, so I can't tell you the total answer to your problem.  
    When you boot from your hard drive (as opposed to floppy disk or cd-rom), it will always look for the initial hardware loaders ($ldr$, ntldr, etc) from the boot drive (normally "C") prior to looking at boot.ini. From there it will give you a choice of which operating system to load.
    Incidentally, the loader is a dos based program so only knows about drives 1 & 2.
    the easiest way to get the operating system on the second drive, is to use the install disk from windows by executing "cd-rom":/setup.exe from the start menu.
    After removing the current version of the OS from the scsci drive, you may then install onto the scsi drive.  Ensure that the scsi controller is enabled for booting, so it's BIOS is enabled.
    Hope this helps.

  • Missing Boot Partition

    I am trying to install Solaris on a machine which already has Windows98.I want to make my machine dual boot.After the Solaris installation is completed and i try to boot the machine , i get the errror message " Missing Boot Partition".
    Please help me to solve the problem.
    Prashant

    Hi Prashant
    There are chances that if you are installing Solaris behind windows system,
    then the boot sector might be overwritten.
    Here are some steps you need to do when you are installing Solaris behind windows
    1) Back up your Windows 98.
    2) Create a primary partition for Solaris with DOS fdisk or Partition
    Magic's fdisk utility.
    3) Edit the partition table with a disk editor and give the Solaris
    Partition the ID 82 (But be careful if you install Linux after. Linux
    Swap partition has the same ID)
    4) Save the Master Boot record in a file
    5) Install Solaris 8 from the Software CD 1 (not the Install CD)
    6) The Solaris partition will be recognized from the Setup. You don't
    need 2 partitions, as if you would install from the installation CD
    7) After Solaris installation is completed, boot DOS from a floppy and
    rewrite your MBR.

  • I'm missing a DLL file in Leopard

    Hi, im trying to install the IE 8 beta on my new leopard system and it says im missing the DLL file CSSEQCHK.DLL what do i do?

    Hi blackhawkjr,
    You would have to be running Windows in order to run Internet Explorer 8 beta using BootCamp.
    "CSSEQCHK.DLL " File is a Windows based file and cannot be read by the Mac OS.
    About Boot Camp
    With Boot Camp you can install and run Windows XP or Windows Vista on your Intel-based Mac computer, using a Microsoft Windows installation disc that you provide.
    Boot Camp Assistant (located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder) helps you set up a Windows partition on your computer's hard disk and then start the installation of your Windows software. To complete the Boot Camp installation, you install Boot Camp drivers to enable Windows on your Mac.
    After installing Windows and the Boot Camp drivers, you can start up your Mac in either Windows or Mac OS X.
    Home Index
    Installing Windows XP or Windows Vista on your Mac
    You can install Windows XP or Windows Vista on your Mac using Boot Camp Assistant, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
    NOTE: If you have already installed Boot Camp on your Mac and want to upgrade Windows, you don’t need to reinstall Boot Camp.
    To install and set up Windows on your Mac, you’ll need an Intel-based Mac computer with:
    A USB keyboard and mouse, or a built-in keyboard and trackpad
    Mac OS X version 10.5 or later (the latest version of Mac OS X is strongly recommended)
    The latest firmware updates installed
    At least 10 GB of free space on the disk you’re installing on
    A built-in optical disc drive, or, if you have a MacBook Air, a compatible external optical drive connected directly to your computer
    A licensed copy of Windows XP Home Edition or Professional, or Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate
    IMPORTANT: You must use a single full-install Windows installation disc. To install Windows XP, you must have Service Pack 2 or later. Do not install Windows XP without Service Pack 2 and attempt to upgrade it later. Use only 32-bit versions of Windows. If you have a Mac Pro or a MacBook Pro introduced in early 2008 or later, you can use a 64-bit version of Windows Vista.
    To install Windows on your Mac:
    Back up the important information on your computer.
    Open Boot Camp Assistant (located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder).
    Print and follow the instructions in the “Boot Camp Installation & Setup Guide.”
    To install Windows using Boot Camp, you must be logged in as an administrator of your computer.
    *DO NOT proceed with any installations* until you have read all the material and feel confident in doing so. http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/bootcamp.html

  • Error message: Missing PDF maker files in Word 2007

    OK, I am beyond frustrated. I have had nothing but trouble with Windows Vista and Adobe Acrobat. Please help!!!
    What happens: first, the pdf addin for Word 2007 suddenly becomes disabled, for no apparent reason. Forget about trying to re-enable it through the Add-Ins menu, because Word tells me that the "connected state of Office Add-Ins registered in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE cannot be changed". This is a problem for me, because I use a special font (Vietnamese) that sometimes gets corrupted when running pdf maker. The only consistent way I have found to avoid this problem is to run the pdf maker as "Quick PDF" and as far as I can see that option is only available through the pdf addin in Word, I have never been able to find it when I open the Acrobat program and create a pdf from there.
    Second problem: shortly after the pdf addin becomes disabled, my Acrobat program loses the ability to create pdfs altogether. I get the error message "Missing PDF maker files". Yes, I have tried repairing the installation and re-starting my computer per the instructions given. It doesn't fix the problem. I also tried looking in the Knowledge Database on this website, but it appears that the instructions they have to fix the problem there are for earlier versions of Word, not 2007, because my version of word does not look like the version of Word in their little videos.
    This is the second time this has happened. The first time I resolved the problem by a) re-installing Acrobat, which is a pain because it involves calling Adobe and wading through their customer service to get a new installation number, and b) paying a computer repair service to dig deep into the guts of my computer and convince it to change the Office Add-ins to allow the pdf addin again. It worked for about 6 months, and now I have the same problem again. For some reason Vista is spontaneously disabling Acrobat.
    I simply cannot deal with this every few months. We all know that Vista is a crappy program, but I run a business and I need a program that works with whatever crappy program Microsoft puts out. Please, can anyone give me suggestions about how to re-enable these functions when Vista disables them?
    Thanks in advance!

  • In firefox 4 RC, some addons installed suddenly disappear, but checking the profile, some of the missing addons related files are still here, how to make the addons back?

    I use firefox 4 form beta 9 to RC (zh) now and there are also firefox 3.6 installed in computer. One day when I open Fx 4 RC, some (actually a lot but not all) of the adoons just disappear. When I check on about:addons page, some addons installed do not appear in the list.
    The addons '''REMAINED''' including:
    * addons I already used in Fx 3.6 (like webmail notifie , xmarks)
    * ''addons only can use in Fx 4'' (like Open Web Apps for Firefox).
    The addons '''DISAPPEARED''' including:
    * addons I already used in Fx 3.6 (like yoono)
    * '' addons installed when using Fx 4'' (like updatescanner, Thumbnail Zoom).
    But when I check the profile(by Help > Troubleshooting Information>Open Containing Folder) , some (not sure is it all) of the missing addons related files are still here [lucky], so any one know how to make the missing addons back?
    Some more details:
    * This happened when i use RC for already a few days and keep on even i restart Fx and windows.
    * The bookmarks, history, search engine and even themes and icon setting are still here. [ I only sync bookmarks but not history for both xmarks and firefox sync.]
    * This addons are really '''disappeared''' but not disable only!
    * This number of addons missed, as i remember, at least 30, should be more than that number bacause some of them are installed but in disable mode.
    * I try to install back one of the addons - Stylish, the installed code are still here.
    * It is nearly an impossible mission to install every missing addons again, as it really kill my time.

    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar to do a compatibility check.

  • I am running InDesign CS5.5 and trying to open an In Design File but getting an error message. " Cannot open the file "PDavidLCover.indd". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file

    I am running InDesign CS5.5 and trying to open an In Design File but getting an error message. " Cannot open the file "PDavidLCover.indd". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file me be open in another application."Please help I really need to get this file open.

    Since you've shown us the folder contents it's a good bet it isn't in use (no lock file). And it doesn't look like the file is mis-named as there doesn't seem to be anything else there that would be the .indd file (but just in case, open it in TextEdit and paste the first few lines here so we can see what the file header says), so the most likely case is the file is damaged. Is that on a removable device of some sort?
    You can try the tool at Repair corrupt InDesign Adobe files on Mac OS X  or send me a link to the file by private message and I'll try the recovery tool I have for Windows.

  • Has anyone found a quick, permanent solution to the missing iTunes.msi file. It's very frustrating that I can't uninstall or reinstall. I have a new iphone and I'm dead in the water:)

    Has anyone found a quick, permanent solution to the missing iTunes.msi File? I have tried many times to upgrade both itune and quicktime and get the same old error notice. Surely, by now, someone has found out how to get around this mess. Please....

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • After migrating to new Mac Pro Dreamweaver won't launch, says missing menus.xml file. How do I resolve this?

    After migration to a new Mac Pro Dreamweaver CS6 won't launch. It says it is missing menus.xml file. How do I resolve this?

    Hi rustyg12,
    Go to Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver CS6/Configuration/Menus/menus.bak
    You'll see a menus.xml there - it is a backup copy of the actual menus.xml file that DW uses.
    Copy it from that folder, paste it 1 level above (in Menus folder).
    Fire up DW. See if it works.

  • Missing mscrv80.dll file when updating itunes.  what is it and how can I get it back?

    When updating itunes the new installation said I was missing mscrv80.dll file.  I've reinstalled but still doesn't work.  How can it be repaired?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

WINNT\system32\config\SYSTEM. This machine is Windows 2000 Professional on Dell computer and Foxfire 3.6 or 4 not sure computer is stuck at the error message.

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,

  • I have QuickTime Player 7.6.8, I cannot update or remove it b/c I am missing QuickTime.msi file. It is gone and I need it back. Please help.

    I have QuickTime Player 7.6.8, I cannot update or remove it b/c I am missing QuickTime.msi file. It is gone and I need it back. Please help.

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)
