No boot disk error has suddenly occured with Bootcamp

Hey all,
I have a Mid 2010 Macbook bro running the latest Lion on the factory 500GB Seagate HDD. About 3 weeks ago I installed a 2nd hard drive (an intel 320 series SSD 120GB) in the main HDD bay and put the SSD into an optibay. I loaded Bootcamp on my new SSD and then installed Windows 7 onto it. It has worked perfectly since then. I have been able to hold the option key and selct which drive I want to boot to at start up etc.
This morning I held my option key to boot to Windows, and I received the "No bootable disk - insert boot disk and press any key" error. Has anyone seen this before? I have read through a lot of forums and found this relatively common for people who haven't been able to start windows at all, but mine was running perfectly fine with no sign of errors. Note the it shoulded be my Hard drive caddy that has given up as my Seagate HDD is in that and I am using that atm.
Cheers

Boot from Windows DVD
Download Intel utility for their SSD and create a boot CD
Yesterday was critical updates for patch Tuesday.
My advise is to make a backup on weekends before

  • HP g7 Laptop - "A Read Disk Error Has Occured - Use Ctrl Alt Delete to restart"

    I recently ran into a problem with my HP g7 Laptop. Purchased from Fry's less than 8 months ago.
    The issue i ran into is - when turning on the Laptop
    1st the monitor did not appear to come on...but it had its just that the montior was not
    showing illuminence...
    i ran into the DOS message:
    "A read disk error has occured
    Use ctrl alt delete to restart"
    which i did but did not work. I took apart the laptop to examine the hard drive and based on visual review did not appear to be damaged. Though I was shocked to see the hard drive is a SEAGATE product! which i have found to be a NOT RELIABLE hard drive product. I feared the worst knowing i had lost what I had saved and backed up on the C/D drive portion of the Hard Drive. Using a Flashlight to see what appeared on the monitor, I was able to perform the HP Recovery options on the computer but each option ended with the computer replying to the effect the it could not detect or there was no hard drive or c: - anything...which confused me because why was the laptop allowing to performing the recovery options. The last option i tried was to restore laptop to original factory settings. When it completed and I click the button for the system to restart the next error message i received was that "BOOTMRG missing - use ctrl alt delete to restart"
    which again did not work.
    Can you please bottom line it for me...have i experienced a HD crash and if so how can i know if this is covered under manufacture warrenty? It is upsetting to know that only after 8months of having this product, which i have been very happy with, until now, that the HD experiences a crash. none of the reviews for this product that i have read indicates this problem occuring!
    if this is a HD crash, also i am going to have to purchase a new HD correct, if not covered under warrenty?
    please help! spending over $600 for the Laptop and it only lasting a little over 8 months is not acceptable!
    Sincerely
    Frustrated Customer

    Hi admiral74,
    Call in and speak to a customer service rep. That will be the only way to know if it is still covered by warranty.
    Good luck!

  • Disk Utitlity has "Lost Connection" with Disk Management tool"

    [ Edited by Apple Discussions Moderator; please start a new topic about your technical issue. ]
    Running OSX10.3.8
    I installed:
    "iTunes" (6.0.2)
    "iPod Updater 2005-11-17" ((null))
    "iChat Update" (2.1)
    Went to repair disk permissions
    I get this error:
    Disk Utitlity has "Lost Connection" with Disk Management tool" Please quit Disk Utility.
    then it says quitting Disk Utility may render the disk useless. Stopping the scan just gives a "stopped by User" red text message in the DU screen.
    Had to Quit. No other way out.
    Now it will not repair "or" verify Disk permissions at all.
    What to do?
    Powermac G4 1.25ghz, OS9/OSX   Mac OS X (10.3.8)  

    Getting the same results booting off of the install CD. I even ran fsck -y after a soft boot(command S). Note I also installed the iPod updater and iChat update.
    I'm getting a crash log that has to do with DiskManagement
    Path: /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DiskManagement.framework/Resources/DiskManage mentTool
    I tossed the pref file for Disk utility and tried to locate a pref for the Disk Management but nada...
    Is there a prefs file that needs to be tossed?
    Anyone do a recent Onyx Maintainence cleaning?
    Is there a way to do an iTunes Uninstal and reinstall a previous version?

  • Disk Utility has Lost Connection with the Disk Managment Tool

    Hi,
    For starters, this problem is not associated with the thread that Brian Z. has posted at the top of this forum. Having said that, here's my problem:
    I had installed Security Update 2006-003, and Quicktime 7.1. Permissions were repaired before and after each installation, and all went well.
    Some hours later, I was experimenting with Apple Remote Desktop. I had activated ARD in the System Preferences>Sharing pane, and it provided me an IP address associated with ARD. I then turned on Airport, and ARD provided me with an IP address associated with that connection. However when I turned off my modem connection, System Preferences>Sharing hung, and had to be Force Quit.
    Console Log follows:
    ===== Mon May 15 2006 ===== 21:09:09 America/Anchorage =====
    2006-05-15 21:09:17.488 System Preferences[2732] Can't open input server /Library/InputManagers/Menu Extra Enabler.bundle
    2006-05-15 21:09:28.224 System Preferences[2732] ### Error:268435460 File:FileSharing.m Line:308
    2006-05-15 21:09:38.230 System Preferences[2732] ### Error:268435460 File:FileSharing.m Line:343
    2006-05-15 21:09:48.415 System Preferences[2732] ### Error:268435460 File:FileSharing.m Line:343
    Thinking a plist had become corrupted, I trashed the following:
    com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist
    com.apple.Remotemanagement.plist
    com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist.
    System Preferences started out very slowly, but then all the panes except Sharing would work ok.
    I booted from the install disk and performed a Disk Repair. There were no problems reported.
    When I tried to run a Repair Permissions, after about 20 seconds I got the, "Disk Utility has lost connection with the disk management tool and can not continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility."
    I quit D.U. and the Installer, and was able to successfully run a Repair Permissions from the D.U. in my Utilities folder. It had no problems to report.
    Continuting to troubleshoot the System Preferences problem, I then trashed the com.apple.preferencepanes.cache. This solved my System Preferences>Sharing problem.
    However, I am still unable to perform a Repair Permissions after booting from my install disk (I get the subject message). Repairing permissions from the Disk Utility in my Utilies folder works fine.
    Any thoughts out there on a logical way to troubleshoot where my problem is? Is there a way to get a console log when I'm running DU from the install disk, or a comparable source??
    Thanks,
    Bob

    I found this crash log that was generated about the time I had problems with System Preferences hanging.
    Thoughts?

  • Pavillion Boot Disk Error

    My son's Pavilion g6 has two users, his and mine.  When I log in as mine, the computer seems to work fine, in and out of Safe Mode.  When I log in as his user, I get the blue screen data dump, then a boot disk error.  Here is what I have tried:
    Restore on my user
    Windows security scan (which didn't finish before shutting down)
    Booting with Safe Mode on his user (didn't work)
    Took out the hard disk, sprayed with compressed air and reinserted the hard drive
    What options do I have?  Can I delete his user?  Could it be a virus?  I am stumped.
    I can get to all of his files but I can't stay logged on with his user.
    Thanks.

    Yes you can delete his user account and create a new one. Just be sure to copy his files if he has stuff he doesn't want to lose. Restart the machine before trying o create a new user account for him.

  • 'Disk Utility has lost connection with Disk Management Tool' w/ RAID 10 set

    Using 4 internal drives, I have specified the following setup for each:
    2 partitions, 1 'speed' of 5 GB and 1 'data' of whatever remains.
    The 4 speed partitions stripe to a single RAID volume correctly.
    The 4 data partitions are used to make a RAID 10 volume as follows:
    The first 2 data partitions are mirrored to make a 'data-A'
    The next 2 data partitions are mirrored to make a 'data-B'
    These complete correctly.
    Upon attempting to strip data-A and data-B in order to finish the RAID 10 setup, Disk Utility quits with the following message:
    "Disk Utility has lost connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility'.
    A search here and on the nets reveals only that this message appeared in 10.3.x when attempting to repair disk permissions and had to do with a rogue iTunes support file. This is occurring on a blank system (no iTunes installed) so I don't think its the same cause.
    Note that I was able to complete this setup under Tiger several times without issue, so it seems to be unique to Leopard. Does anyone know what is going on and hopefully suggest a workaround?

    To answer my own issue and leave a marker here for others, I was able to successfully set up a RAID 10 partition using diskutil, indicating that the problem is Disk Utility itself and not the RAID implementation.
    Disk Utility has proven itself to be bugridden (must restart frequently to get updated view of volumes; drops device names at various times; etc.) and this latest bug would seem to suggest that it should be avoided in favor of diskutil for any serious RAID construction.

  • No Bootable Device - Insert Boot Disk Error...

    Ok so today I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit on my 750GB Toshiba HDD in my Optibay and was installed successfully, installed all the Drivers from Windows Support flash drive and when I try to reboot into Windows 7 I get the "No Bootable Device - Insert Boot Disk Error" everytime!! lol What the heck is going on here??

    So, I encountered the same problem...
    When I click the icon in bootcamp to install windows, after a bit of activity the Windows installation disc was spit put, the screen goes black and the error "No Bootable Device Insert Book Disk Press Any Key to Continue" appears on the screen. And nothing else but using the OSX installation disc helps.
    I realised that the windows installation disc did not even spin up.
    So what I did... I went back to OSX, reinserted windows installation disc, went to system preferences, selected the windows cd as a start up disc and locked it against the changes.
    After that I went back to bootcamp and clicked gain to install windows. Everything worked fine now.
    I just tried this and it didn't work for me. I keep getting a black screen with a cursor flashing in the upper left hand corner.

  • An error has been detected with a required application library and the product cannot continue. Plea

    I am getting the following error each time I open Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional...
    "An error has been detected with a required application library and the product cannot continue. Please reinstall the application."
    I have tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the program. It didn't help, got the same error shortly after opening the program.
    What is strange is that the problem just suddenly appeared therefore, I believe that it may have been malware related causing this problem. And I have had this program and have been using it without any problems now for over 3 years.
    It appears that a vital part of the program is being blocked.
    Can anyone please help and offer a detailed solution to this problem? Maybe someone has already encountered it.
    Thank you!

    Anoop,
    Upon re-reading that information, I am curious as to why your believe that this will solve my issue. That is not related to my error message: "An error has been detected with a required application library and the product cannot continue. Please reinstall the application."
    I have not received any such message as the one seen on that page.
    Please explain why I wouldn't have gotten that partcular message and instead got the one I quoted above?
    Thank you,

  • Hp mini 110 boot disk error after installing new hard drive and system recovery

    Need help,  HP mini 110 Windows 7 32 bit.  using my recovery disks I created i was able to recover to the old 160 gb hard drive.  After I installed new 320 Gig drive and used my recovery disks i now get boot disk error. Looks like system was installed on new drive. but will not boot to complete set up.

    If you use the recovery disk, your machine will restore to its default factory state. Try to reinstall the 320 GB you have if you want it to get back.
    Can't get enough of this Envy...

  • "An error has been detected with a required application library"

    Hi All,
    I installed Audition 3.0 on a new laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium.  The installation goes fine but when I try to run the program it fails and I get this message, "An error has been detected with a required application library and the product cannot continue.  Please reinstall the application."  I've tried reinstalling many times but it doesn't help.  Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Billy

    There's a good chance the software is too old and is not compatible with Windows 7.  One thing you might try is to uninstall and then install the new CS6 trial version and see if that works properly for you.  If it does, then it is not a mchine issue (except that the machine might be too new for the old version).

  • "An error has been detected with a required application library and the product cannot continue. Please reinstall the application.

    I have received the following error message from my Adobe Acrobat Pro X1 after installing the CS6 package :, "An error has been detected with a required application library and the product cannot continue. Please reinstall the application.
    I am now unable to open any pdf?
    Any words of advise here how to fix this problem?
    Thanks!

  • Scratch Disk Error Has Occurred on Brand New External HD

    Here are my specs:
    Mac
    OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion
    3.2 Ghz Intel Core i3
    8 Gb 1333Mhz DDR3 (was running 4 gb. an apple specialist just installed another 4 of Crucial brand. I wanted 16gb, but apparently I got a Mac in mid 2010 when it's finicky about it's Ram. Ugh)
    Photoshop CS5 12.0.4 x64
    Brand new 1 TB Toshiba External Used Only as a Scratch Disk,
    Available: 999.35
    Used 848.3 Mb
    Files: 73
    Folders: 14
    Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1 TB internal on the Mac that is checkmarked as secondary Scratch.
    I'm working with Jpeg image files, mainly using Batch Processing. This error is usually occuring when I go to save my files, but today it occurred in the middle of using Content Aware. My crop tool is set at 250 resolution, and today I hadn't even cropped yet. Mac was freshly restarted last night and only a few picures edited after I restarted, so all memory should have been mainly purged. (although I had used content aware on one picture last night after restarting, a pretty large corner of a studio backdrop)
    Should I be partioning my external? Is this TOO much space? My thinking was an empty hard drive wouldn't have to be searched, but I really probably don't know what I'm talking about.
    I never got any errors when I was using my internal HD on the Mac, it was just slowing down after using Batch Processing and Actions. (I edit for a photographer) I do realize I should be using Lightroom. I have Lightroom 3, but I just don't have the time to learn right now, as this is the photographers busy season. After this fiasco and learning there is now soft proofing available in 4, I will make it a mission to learn in the new year!
    Please let me know any other questions I can answer for you.  Thanks.

    Lots of options for ordering on the web.
    Here are speeds from a previous post I made. 
    Internal vs external all boils down to connection type and transferer speed.  Here is a clip from the web.
    "Bottom line seems to be that a good SATA II (3.0 Gb/s) HDD will often achieve a 70 to 100 MB/s long-term average transfer rate.  I don't know for sure what older IDE drives can do, but I know it is less. For an external HDD connected by USB2 (a slower interface than SATA), the rate is more like 30 to 35 MB/s (USB3 is faster, close to SATA II rates). Firewire 400 is a little slower than SATA II, and Firewire 800 (uncommon on PC's but on many Mac's) may be faster than SATA II. IF your external HDD is a SATA II and connected by a good eSATA port to your machine, it probably will exhibit a speed close to an internal SATA II drive."
    What I get from this is the speed is increasing as you go from USB -USB2 - SATA - Firewire 400 - USB3 - SATA II - Firewire 800. 

  • Error code 1 occurs with build of .exe (problem VI attached)

    The problem I have been having with a particular project has been posted many times by others.  I have read through many of the threads related to this (or somewhat related to it).  I've tried some things but not all.  I finally started disabling sections of my code to see if the error went away.  I have tracked it down to the attached VI.  The error code is also attached.  Can someone analyze this VI and see what the problem could be?  It uses .NET objects, so I am not sure exactly what the compiler is looking for.  I should note that this is not my VI, but one I copied from the forum here.  As far as e-mail, the VI works great in development mode, but obviously I desire a stand-alone application.
    Also note that I created a new project and dropped this VI on the top-level VI and it built an .exe just fine, which doesn't make any sense to me. Perhaps someone can shed some light on this issue.  When I tried moving it back to the original project, it failed the build.  If all instances of this VI are disabled in my project (using a disable diagram), it builds the project with no errors.  Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    Error 1 with Build.PNG ‏52 KB

    I have the same problem, me too.
    It took often some time to be able to compile my project. I modified some code in some VIs (but keeping the functionality) until I modified the blocking part by hazard and compile worked. But today it takes me hours and I am still trying on.
    When I remember right the message most often told me about a broken VI. (But there was none.) But today I got the same error message as you. There is no helpful information included:
    An error has occurred. Expand the Details section for more information.
    Visit the Request Support page at ni.com/ask to learn more about resolving this problem. Use the following information as a reference:
    Error 1 occurred at AB_Application.lvclass:Create_INI_File.vi -> AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi -> AB_EXE.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi -> AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi -> AB_Application.lvclass:Build.vi -> AB_EXE.lvclass:Build.vi -> AB_Engine_Build.vi -> AB_Build_Invoke.vi -> AB_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller
    Possible reason(s):
    LabVIEW: An input parameter is invalid. For example if the input is a path, the path might contain a character not allowed by the OS such as ? or @.
    =========================
    NI-488: Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller-In-Charge.
    Any hints how to quickly identify the problematic code?
    (My guess was that it could have something to do with upconverted VIs containing a conditional disable structure. But it looked like this was not always the case.)

  • BIOS flash went wrong? stop errors, boot disk error

    Hello, I need help.
    I tried to update to bios 4.0.  It seemed to have gone well.  I then upped my fsb 5 to 205 because I could.  BSOD- stop error.  So I put back to old settings...  Same thing.  Then I greatly reduced settings...again, same thing.  I tried usin repair with my win2k disk.  BSOD- "inaccessable boot disk" and told me to "run chkdsk / f."
    I tried to boot into safe mode command prompt so I could run chkdsk /f, but I got the BSOD stop error again.  
    I reverted back to previous bios 3.9.  But that did not solve my problems.  
    I am guessing I need to repair the HD boot sector?  Whenever I get a stop error it tells me it "cannot find dll winsrv" or something like that.
    Any help on how to get this thing back up and running would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    Had nothing to do with RAM or boot record.  Since the machine was telling me to chkdsk, i took out the HD and put it in another machine.  I ended up repairing windows on that machine, then taking it to my machine and it worked.  I can't explain the strange errors I got, but at least I fixed the problem.
    Thank you for your responses.
