Windows 7 Enterprise - disk not bootable?

I've just recently installed Snow Leopard, and now I'd like to install Windows 7 with Bootcamp. My copy is Windows 7 Enterprise, however the bootcamp installer does not recognize it as a bootable disk. I know this is false, however, because I have used the same CD to install Windows 7 on three other machines, all non-mac.
My problem did not arise with the installation of Snow Leopard - I had tried to install it in the past with Leopard, but ran into the same problem (Installing Vista Enterprise instead). This seems to be a tell-tale sign to me that it is not the program (Bootcamp), but actually the CD... A confusing predicament, since, as I have said, it has worked previously in non-mac machines.
So, my question is this: How do I install my copy of Windows 7?

"Boot Camp" is not really an installer, other than re-partition, and makes it possible when using GPT initialized disks to boot off MBR.
When you get to Windows install you have to delete the FAT32 parition and create NTFS, so it doesn't even create a fully valid partition for you.
Most of the time, this kind of problem can be from -
burning an ISO
optical DVD drive
DVD media itself
I am sure that there a few others with similar iMacs that had trouble, so you aren't entirely alone, but not everyone either
Late 2009 and you just recently installed 10.6, while I thought Snow Leopard came out last August.
See how it works with VirtualBox or Fusion??

  • Windows 7 Enterprise is not genuine after installing new hard-drive and cloning the old one

    I retired from my job as a university professor two years ago, and they let me keep my laptop computer, which is a Dell Latitude E4300 with Windows 7 Enterprise installed. I do not have any of the original disks for Windows. Recently, the hard-drive began
    to fail, so I replaced it with a new one, cloning the old hard-drive onto the new one. Soon after that, a popup window began appearing saying that this computer is not running genuine windows. One important consequence of this is that I can no longer use Windows
    Update, so I have concerns about security. If I go to the control panel under “System”, it says windows is activated and gives me the Product ID. I have talked to tech support at Microsoft, and they tell me something along the lines of the following: that
    the problem is the new hard-drive is not recognized as being licensed to use this copy of Windows, and that I should post a question on one of the forums asking this: How can I reinstall Windows 7 Enterprise on the new hard-drive? Any assistance will be much
    appreciated.
    PS I have no idea which forum this should go under, so pretty much just picked one randomly.

    Thank you for the reply. Below is the diagnostic report:

  • Windows 7 install disk not booting

    Im trying to instal Windows 7 on my Mac Pro dual core 2.66. Model MacPro1,1. Mac os is 10.6.8. Boot Camp 3.0.4

    I eather get a gray screen and after about a minute the disk ejects.
    or
    I get a black screen that says,
         "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key" and again the disk ejects
    or
    I get a black screen that says,
              1.
              2.
         Select CD-ROM Boot Type  : _
    Any ideas?
    and yes it is a lagit copy of Windows 7, I just bought it from Best Buy and cost me $200 for the full version.

    I suggest you take your computer to a repair shop for some hardware diagnostics.  It impossible to tell you exactly what failed.  It could be a component on the motherboard; it could be a failure in the system memory; there are just too many
    possibilities to speculate what happened.

    Hi Andy,
    It seems you're hitting the unpublished bug 12886827. The fix for this bug is included in 11.2.0.3 patch bundle 1.
    Since your version is 11.2.0.1, you'll need to upgrade, which is not a bad thing anyway because 11.2.0.1 has many bugs.

  • Driver for the ethernet controller on a HP Pavillion P600000 Series desktop after upgrading to Windows 7 Enterprise?

    After upgrading from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Enterprise (x64) Service Pack 1 (build 7601), I cannot find working drivers for my ethernet controller. The desktop is a HP Pavillion, Model
    No. p6710f. I located the drivers on HP's website, but Windows 7 Enterprise
    is not listed as compatible. Compatibility list:
    Microsoft Windows 7 Home Basic (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 Professional (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
    The original driver (according to HP's site) is a Realtek PCIe Family networking controller, Version:7.26.902.2010 Rev. A.
    I tried contacting HP, but apparently I voided their warranty once I upgraded to Windows 7 Enterprise. I do not have a support plan with Microsoft because the operating system was purchase through TechSoup (nonprofit). I greatly appreciate your help;
    let me know if you need more information.

    Windows 7 Ultimate and Enterprise are essentially the same with regard

  • Windows 7 Enterprise x64 on 2010 Macbook Pro 15" i5

    Has anyone successfully installed a version of Windows 7 other than the Home, Home Premium, Professional, or Ultimate on this series of OS X? I only have a copy of OS 10.6.5 and up. It looks like bootcamp is very picky about what version exactly gets installed. I don't know why!
    I just want to make it boot from my totally 100% legal copy of Windows 7 x64 but the Bootcamp utility ignores it and holding the "option" key doesn't give me the choice to boot from that DVD. I can download almost any other version of the Enterprise version of Windows 7 from Microsoft's website but my upgrade license only lets me install Enterprise.
    Does anyone have a suggestion on how to make a version of Windows 7 install on this hardware?
    Thank you!

    The windows 7 enterprise disk I was using included service pack 1. I think bootcamp didn't like that the disk was sp1. I downloaded the non service pack iso and it installed just fine. I had been using a fully updated os 10.6.7. It works now.

  • The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual hard disk sharing. (Hyper-v / Windows 10 Enterprise Tech. Preview)

    I am attempting to create new virtual machines in Hyper-V on Windows 10 Enterprise Tech. Preview and I am continually getting the error "The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual hard disk sharing.". I am not trying
    to setup a shared VM or VHD, just a basic VHD.

  • 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.

  • Windows 7 not bootable after upgrade

    Hello All,
    I have just upgraded to Maverick OS X 10.9 (13A603). Now as many of the others I am unable to boot into my Windows 7.
    The partition is NOT LOST. I can still see the partions and the files in the Windows HD just cannot boot with it.
    I guess it can be easily fixed using gdisk for experts.
    Anyhelp in this matter is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks alot

    I think my problem is that my Windows HD partition is not marked as Bootable.
    In the gdisk i see this in the recovery option
    Recovery/transformation command (? for help): o
    Disk size is 236978176 sectors (113.0 GiB)
    MBR disk identifier: 0x1D94FD6E
    MBR partitions:
    Number  Boot  Start Sector   End Sector   Status      Code

       2                409640     69313807   primary     0xAF
       3              70584320    138399743   primary     0x07
       4             138399744    236976127   primary     0x07
    No partition is marked as bootable.
    Learning from Christopher's learnings, may be i just need to create a new empty GUID partition table in gdisk by pressing o
    Add new partitions (by pressing n) EFI (dont know what it is for), Macintosh HD, Windows HD and Recovery HD into it and make Windows HD bootable.
    Am I correct ?
    Another issue that can be is that my two drives have completely same GUID.
    Is this ok?
    May be it is causing issue.

  • 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.

  • After writing an html report on a floppy disk and removing it, labview shows an error message window: disk not present

    after writing an html report on a floppy disk and removing it, labview shows an error message window: disk not present.
    My pc is based on asus motherboard. Labview 7 and Windows 2000 sp4 installed.
    The error message continue also if i stop the application that generated report on a: .
    I've got this problem only on a pc: on other machines i don't have this problem (Labview only continues to access floppy but it doesn't show any window).
    Find below an example: first press the button to create a report on a: then remove the floppy, after 30-35 sec i've got the error message

    Hi,
    I tried your vi: I don't get any error message after removing the disk but LV7 keeps on accessing the drive at regular intervals even if you stop the vi and close it!!! This is not supposed to happen.
    The only way to stop it is exit LV7.
    If you don't use the file dialog and you wire a full path, you don't get any problem.
    I also created a very simple vi that conditionally writes a text file on a: and I got the same behaviour.
    This problem occurs only with LV7, I tried the same examples in LV6.1 and everything was fine.
    If anybody wants to try I attach this simple example,
    Alberto

  • Ipod 160GB showing in Windows Vista OS as Removable Disk, not appearing in iTunes (latest version). How can I resolve?, Ipod 160GB showing in Windows Vista OS as Removable Disk, not appearing in iTunes (latest version). How can I resolve?

    My Ipod 160GB when disconnected is showing without any files, but no room available. It appears in my 'Computer' screen as 'Removable Disk (though the icon is a little iPod). It does not show up in iTunes at all (I have the latest version).
    When I right-click the icon on the 'Computer' screen it does run incredibly slowly. I was doing this to consider if I should try formatting it (only NTSF and exFAT formats were showing) but I wasn't certain if that would be a good idea.
    I have thus far:
    Hard Reset iPod
    Verified the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver was installed correctly via Device Manager
    Checked the device in 'Computer Management' > 'Disk Management - showing as a RAW file with only format option as exFAT or NTSF
    Ran iPod in Diagnostic Boot Mode - IO > HardDrive > HDSMARTData* - stats revealed 'Error' (did this twice to confirm error). Reset iPod from here.
    After this it actually came up in iTunes but said it needed to be restored - ran Restore iPod. Error message said 'iPod cannot be restored. Uknown error occoured (1415).
    Tried Solution 1 (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1539) - Reregistering the .dll files. Was unable to complete step 11 as the iPod did not appear in iTunes.
    Verified that Apple Mobile Device Manager was installed.
    Restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service.
    Checked for third party conflicts - couldn't find any.
    Changed the drive letter and restarted the computer.
    Put into disk mode - unsure what that achieves.
    Downloaded the HP USB with no luck running the program. I believe that Windows Vista doesn't allow formatting drives to FAT32 at all, and even previous editions of Windows wouldn't allow formatting above 32GB so certainly no suitable for me. If I got hold of a mac computer - could I format on that? Or is there a FAT32 Formatter that works for 160GB?
    So I am at a bit of a frustrated loss. If you have any suggestions or know what I should do - I am all ears or eyes as it were. I will be on standby to give you more information if required.
    Thanks,
    Ashley

    Try Resetting Your iPod while it's connected to the computer.
    Hold down the Menu and Select buttons until you see the Apple logo (or Menu & Play/Pause in older models).
    This will often get it recognized. It may take several attempts.
    Also see these (if you haven't found them already):
    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
    iPod does not appear in iTunes or on the desktop
    iPod appears in Windows Explorer but does not appear in iTunes
