Unable to install Windows 7 Professional x64 to a GUID Partition Table
I used to have Windows 7 installed under boot camp numerous times, with no issue, although, since I am a bit techy, I once tried to install Mac, Linux, and Windows on my iMac, (Never got that working), and right now, I'm running on a fresh installed, fresh updated (just yesterday, in fact) Mac OS X 10.6.3, updated to 10.6.8, and whenever I get to the disk selection portion of Windows 7's installer, after I select the BOOTCAMP disk, it says it can't be installed to the GPT disk...I've read somewhere that you could create a hybrid disk, but thought against it, seeing that there were risks. Is this my only option? I have the original 10.6.3 DVD, a DMG backup of it, and a small portion of my disk designated to the Installer itself.
When you get to BOOTCAMP, that has to be changed from FAT to NTFS but you have to click Advanced Option.... button in order to change to NTFS.
The GPT error message can happen if you have more than one internal hard drive (say SSD and TB model).
If you didn't use Assistant, and some have managed, undo the partition.
Paragon CampTune $19 can also assist with installing Windows, creating the partition - but may not work with Lion, though you aren't there yet.

Unable to install Windows 7 x64 on Partitioned 3TB
Since my exhaustive search of these forums and Google provided no substantive hits, I decided to do it myself and install Windows 7 x64 on partition 3 (500GB) of a Western Digital 3TB drive via Boot Camp.
I can say after two days of trying that it is not possible as the Windows 7 installer will not allow it to continue on said partition due to it being on a GPT drive, even after using the installer to both reformat the target partition as NTFS as well as deleting and reformatting same partition. I even tried rebooting after deleting to see if the installer will proceed (I read this possible solution from a Vista x64 installation issue); the installer has steadfastly refused to install. The same installation DVD works just fine on 2TB drives that have been partitioned via Boot Camp.
Not sure what else to try, though I did read somewhere about possibly using GPARTED to format the target partition, but I think the true underlying issue may be "standard" EFI versus Apple's EFI implementation which is preventing Windows 7 x64 from installing.
Does anyone have any suggestions on this matter, or is this a dead-end until Apple or Microsoft changes something?I have a PowerMac dual 2.3 G5, a Mac Pro dual 2.66 Duo (2006), and Mac Pro dual 2.8 Quad (2008) and a MacBook Pro 2.26 Duo (2009 Unibody).
I was attempting the install on my home 2008 MP. The 2006 is at a work site so cannot be considered in my project.
I HAD 1 2TB drive in bay 1 that had 10.6.7 and Win7 x64, 2 3TB in bay 2/3 (bay 2 had 10.6.7 backup OS while bay 3 was purely a data drive) and 1 1TB WinXP x86 in bay 4.
So I just replaced the 2TB with a third 3TB and needed to keep Win7. Now I'm faced with either SHRINKING WinXP in bay 4 in order to partition it into two with Win7 on the other partition, or wiping out 10.6.7 partition the just-replaced 2TB and cloning my WinXP drive onto that.
I only need probably at most 500GB for both WinXP and Win7, primarily for development purposes as well as PC-only gaming; I don't need a 2TB drive for them and I'd rather retask the 2TB drive into my unRAID media server.
Which means I don't want a 3TB Windows only solution. -

Fresh Install Windows 7 x64 IE 9 Flash Player Crash
Greetings All,
I am working on a major imaging prject for my organization. I'm getting ready to create a new image for some of our machines so I was getting the reference computers ready. I have noticed that when flash player is enabled in IE 9 it crashes the browser. I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped working" error. I can click the close program button, IE will try to launch the same page again and i get the error again with a bar on the bottome of the IE window stating "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab". After a few rounds of this I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped trying to restore this website." This is occuring on two different machines that I have been preping.
Here are the details of what I have done to these machines: (Dell E6420 and Dell E6320)
1. Installed Windows 7 x64 from install media (blanked the drive so fresh install)
2. Installed SEP 11.0.6200.754
3. Installed all drivers fresh off of Dell's website.
4. Installed Office 2010.
5. Ran and updated EVERYTHING from MICROSOFT update, SP1 and IE 9 included.
6. Went to Adobe.com and installed the latest Acrobat, Flash, and Shockwave Player from the links on the main page.
7. Rebooted and now anytime I go to any page with Flash objects I get the above error.
Here are version:
Windows 7 x64 SP1
IE 9.0.8112.16421
Shockwave Flash Object (Enabled in Manage Add-ons) 10.2.159.1
As said these are two brand new machines, two fresh loads, two batches of software fresh from the web, and two machines having unacceptable problems when Flash is installed. What's up here?
Many Thanks for your time!I’m going to take a moment and do two things, bump the thread, and provide a short synopsis on where we stand on this issue.
After much trial and error and the help of Chris I can say with relative certainty that this is an issue with compatibility between nVidia’s Optimus systems and Flash player’s hardware acceleration feature. I don’t know if the issue is just IE9 or IE8. I haven’t taken the time to try this on an Optimus system with IE 8 yet. If someone out there is running one of the Optimus enabled laptops with IE8 and the latest flash installed I would love to hear some feed back.
Ultimately IE8 vs. IE9 is an inconsequential issue. Soon Microsoft will start pushing IE 9 as an important update meaning that the problem will need to be fixed or we’ll be faced with more users having the problem.
I have posted about the issue in the nVidia forums, Dell forums, and Adobe forums. Please find the links to the threads below. I don’t believe the issue to be unique to just the two Dell models that I am dealing with. I have run across numerous complaints along this line from several different OEMs.
Here are some links of interest if you want to research and lend your voice to the cause:

Macbook Pro 15" (early 2011) unable to run Windows 7 x64
Dear Apple Support Community,
I encountered a problem trying to install windows 7 x64 on my MBP.
All the installation steps went well, until the point when I ran Boot Camp 5 (the suggested version for my computer) to install drivers. After the installation of these drivers, I restarted the system. After that, windows 7 booted up nicely and normally, until I selected the user and came to desktop. Then, the screen just suddenly went extremely dark (the machine was still running normally).
I suspect it might has something to do with the graphics driver and reinstalled it several times using different versions of Boot Camp. When I tried to install the Intel HD graphics 3000 driver, it said "your computer does not meet the requirement to install..", which confused me even further 8-}
How could I solve this problem?
p/s: please pardon my poor English.Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Your MacBook has got two GPUs, and Windows is only using the dedicated GPU, which is the AMD Radeon HD 6490M or AMD Radeon HD 6750M. You have to install the graphic card drivers from the AMD site > http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx

Hey, I am unable to install windows 7 using 'bootcamp 5.0' . I have already partitioned the drive as (mac Os Extended Journaled) and yet it seems bootcamp won't acknowledge this?
My first thoughts were that 'bootcamp' was out of date...needed an upgrade to register windows 7. Since then I am once again met with the same problem... how can it not see the I have already have a paritioned drived ready to be used for installition, is there a way to fix this problem? I don't really want to pay out for 'i-parition' only to merge my 2 drives back into one and start again from scratch =/. Seems silly to do so...what are my options?
Regards Swishi...p.s If anyone can help me...it'll make my day :3.ONE PARTITION.
You don't need to buy anything but you should have backups.
you can delete #2 you created. Then resize to full drive.
There are already
GPT
EFI
Mac

and there needs to be Windows which cannot be higher ID

Unable to install Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on Lenovo 3000 J115 7387-26U
Hi Everyone,
I am unable to install Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on my Lenovo desktop. Model : 3000 J115 7387-26U.
When I try to boot my DVD, the systems makes a loud whirring noise.. as if trying to read from DVD, the screen goes blank couple of times and then Windows XP starts up (from my HDD).
I have a Windows 7 32 bit DVD and it successfully started up and I could see the install screen (though I didn't install it. I want to install 64 bit version of the software).
Anyone else seen this problem? Is there some workaround available?
Thanks for your help.
SwamHi:
The Intel link you posted doesn't work, so I don't know what you have tried.
See if this works...
Download the drivers from this link below (first file listed -- 64 bit).
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=23060&keyword=Intel+Rap...
Extract (copy) the files onto a usb flash drive without any folders.
With the flash drive and W7 installation media plugged into the machine, boot from the W7 installation media.
After you select the install now option, select the Drive Options - Advanced menu, then select the Load Driver option.
You should now see the storage driver files listed.
If you check the box, it will only include the compatible driver.
Follow the prompts and hopefully, W7 will install. -
Unable to install Windows 7! Black screen?
Unable to install Windows 7! Black screen?
Hey everyone!
Some background info:
I built my computer ~2 years ago and it worked fine for about half a year, until it crashed. Since then I've been unable to reinstall Windows and I kinda forgot about it... which sucks! So please help me get it up and running again :)
Motherboard: GigaByte Z68
Processor: Intel Core i3
HDD: Seagate Barucada 1TB (st31000524as)
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
My problem:
When I boot from the windows cd (original), sometimes I get stuck at a black screen after "Windows is starting" or the black "loading files" screen. Sometimes it just takes a while but I eventually get to the install menu.
When I am about to chose my hdd, it says it can't install on it. I deleted all partitions, created a new one and formated it (took about 1 hour), still not able to install.
I tried booting from my GigaByte cd, and it went through some kind of install (not sure what it did, it was weird because it's actually made for backups). After I chose "reboot" I was able to install on my hdd again. But after I got to 100% i got
stuck at the black screen again! I waited for a couple hours before I had to turn it off, so I'm back where I started. :/
I always google stuff, and people said the black screen problems could be related to other drives/usb stuff connected to my pc. I only have 1 hdd and 1 usb for mouse/keyboard... I tried disconnecting it but it didnt work and also it doesnt make sense since
I need to reconnect it to click on stuff anyway...
People also said I should try booting with F8 and choose "low res", didn't work either. Other people said "connect a secondary screen", I have a hdmi screen and a rgb screen, I tried all combinations of them and nothing seemed to work...
I also have some confusion with the XHD/RAID/IDE/AHCI settings. I am only using one HDD, so I figured AHCI makes more sense for me - sine i have a SATA hdd and windows 7 64 bit.
However, when I load "Optimized System Defaults" from BIOS, it sets SATA mode to IDE...? When I reboot I get a warning screen that says the system is running in IDE mode and I should switch to AHCI for optimal performance.
How do I know if my system supports AHCI or not, what should I use?
Whenever I select IDE, and I enter Windows installation, it can't even find my hdd!
Only when I select AHCI it finds the hdd, but it won't let me install on it.
I've been strugling for DAYS, so i REALLY appreciate help. :) Also, I've tried making "boot cds/usb", and I have no experience with linux so it's really frustrating. Please don't suggest going linux unless it's really necessary. :( I only have a Knoppix
live CD, but I find the whole linux system so confusing I wasn't really able to do anything, despite several "guides" and youtube videos. I have a computer that's barely been used and a original windows CD, shouldn't I have all I need to repair my
system?
Sorry about the long post, I'll be eternally grateful if someone has any clues!I am not sure which specific issue that is, but it definitely sounds like a hardware issue rather than a software or settings issue. Windows should not have any issues installing; if it does, that would usually point to a hardware issue of some sort.
It could even be your motherboard. Your best bet is to disconnect EVERYTHING that is not needed from the motherboard, including RAM sticks except for the least amount possible, and try installing Windows with that configuration.
Example: you need the power supply, so connect that. If you're installing from a CD/DVD, then you need a CD/DVD drive. You need at least 2 GB of RAM. You need to be able to turn on the computer, so the on/off switch needs to be connected
to the motherboard. You will need a mouse and keyboard. And so on. If this bare-minimum configuration does not work, start replacing items: use a different RAM stick, use a different mouse, use a different keyboard, etc. If, after you
do all this, it still does not work, then I would suspect that your motherboard has an issue. You can also try resetting the CMOS on your motherboard. Some motherboards have a jumper for that, and for others, simply removing the CMOS battery will
do it.
As far as IDE, AHCI, and RAID settings are concerned, this should not matter so long as whichever setting it is on when Windows is installed is the same after it is installed. For example, if it is installed using IDE, then you need to stick with IDE.
If you installed it with AHCI, then you need to stick with AHCI. Changing it after installation can make Windows not boot. There are, of course, ways around that, but it is easiest to simply be consistent. -

Unable to install windows 7 home premium updates error code 643 (KB 954430, KB973688 & KB2538243)
Unable to install windows 7 home premium updates error code 643 (KB 954430, KB973688 & KB2538243) - Please help me!!
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on a Lenovo ThinkPad E530. This laptop is only brands new.
KB954430, KB973688 & KB2538243 - These three updates keep giving me problems. In Windows Update, under "view update history" these keep showing up as failed. I also get the error, "Code 643".
At the end of the installation it tells me three updates are failed to be installed and when I shut down to try to update, Windows always configures up to ~15%, then fails, and reverts changes, then prompts me to install updates the next time I turn my computer on. Each time, I have to re-install every update that I had installed prior to shutting down.
I went through Trouble shooter - "Fix it" numerous times, Repaired Net framework profile and also followed few instructions I found from the net such as running "Reset Register Windows update Components" but nothing works so far.
I even tried manually installing KB954430 but it told me "An error occurred during the installation of assembly component. 7B30B69B-OE6C-B7EO-A06B-D6B9ABF34537 HR RESULT: 0 x 80070BC9" and the installation bar seems to stop at "Publishing Product information", then rolls back the installation.
If you need more details, please tell me & Thanks in advanceCheckout this Microsoft article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976982
It has some resolution steps that may help.
Thank you for being a part of the Lenovo Family,
Catie
