Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit Lion "Installer disc not found." What gives?

I'm trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on a Late 2008 MacBook Pro running Lion. When I get to the partition step I get the message "Installer disc not found." I am logged in as an admisitrator. I'm using a brand new store bought DVD. Any advice?.

Hello @rossinnit and welcome to the HP Forums!
I'd like to help you get the Deskjet 2542 installed on your Windows 7 PC
I'd recommend that you download and run the HP Printer Install Wizard, and that will seek out the drivers online (from the HP web page) and download them for you and then start the install as well.
With that tool you can plug in the USB cable when it asks near the beginning to find the right drivers.
Let me know how things go for you!

Vista Home installer disc not found after partitioning

I don't get an error message but the "installer disc could not be found" message comes up every time I click on Start Installation in Boot Camp and the disk ejects. I repartitioned and am up to date on 10.5.1. I tried setting the partition from 32 to 64 with a 32 bit new Vista Home Premium one disc . I just got the iMac and haven't ever run boot camp before.
Next steps?
Thanks,
Steve

Actually, Windows Anytime Upgrade is a mechanism built in all Vista editions except Ultimate (where it works slightly differently). It allows you to upconvert your present flavor of Windows into one of the upper-tier editions for a fee.
If you have Home Basic, Anytime Upgrade will let you go to Home Premium or Ultimate (you can do this in one jump, or two if you go to Premium first). Business users can only jump to Ultimate.
If you already have Ultimate, you can't go further, HOWEVER, you are entitled to two Home Premium upgrade licenses for other machines (which, incidentally, can be used on Macs provided the Macs are already running XP Home)
The 32/64 question gets decided only at the time of your original Vista purchase. Home users have to trade up to 64-bit (via mail-in) if they want it. Business and Ultimate users get the 64-bit version in the box. System builders can pick any single flavor in either 32- or 64-bit, but not both. The only other catch-22 here is that driver support is very spotty for the 64-bit version. Apple provides no support whatsoever for 64-bit Windows, but others have tried to cram together varying degrees of 64-bit support on Macs.

Windows 8: Bit Locker encrypted drive "Not Found" or "Access Denied"

I just upgraded my Windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 8 Pro. C drive is not Bit locker protected, but D drive is. When I go to Computer and double click on D drive, it tells me one of two errors: 1) Application Not Found (more common), or 2) Access is Denied
(less common).
I thought maybe Bit locker wasn't working, but I plugged in my USB stick that is encrypted and had no issues; it asked for the password and opened the folder.
One thing I did earlier was to setup a new local account, give it administrator password, then delete the other account that I had originally used in Win7 (and in installing Win8). Maybe this caused some sort of security problem.
Please help.
Thanks.

I have been using Bitlocker since it was available with Vista Ultimate. I have had the same password to unlock my drive for 5 years. I NEVER keep my recovery key this drive. but just last month i copied all my data to another drive formatted
it to freshen it up and copied it back over. For some reason i kept the recovery key TXT file.... when i tried your method here due to the same exact problem listed the command prompt would not allow me to enter a password in CMD or powershell. Since
i had the recovery key .. THANK GOODNESS it unlocked perfectly and i was able to retrieve my 6 years of Data. So yes, this works and works well. thank You!

I'm getting "Installer disk not found" message during boot camp 5 and windows 8 install on late 2011 MBP upgraded to Mavericks.

hello,
And thank you in advance.
I'm getting "Installer disk not found" message during boot camp 5 and windows 8 install on late 20011 MBP upgraded to OS X 10.9 Mavericks. Any ideas?
I've downloaded the Window support option software and the WindowSetupBox.exe and copied it to the USB drive. I tried to create an iso image from my Windows XP machine but recieved messages that Windows 8.1 could not run on XP. I've ordered the Windows 8.1 backup media.
Any way to proceed?
Thanks Tim

download the win 8 iso from here;

Problem Installing Oracle Linux 6.3 - 'Disc not found message box'

I'm trying to install Oracle linux on a old laptop. Single disk drive.
I downloaded V33412-01Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 Boot iso image for x86_64 (64 bit)
burned it as an ISO image on a CD.
Inserted the CD,started the system, cd booted and the installation started.
Skipped the verify media (I verifed it during another installation try)
selected English
selected US
When prompted for installation method, I tried selecting 'LOCAL CD/DVD' since that's where my CD is at. I get a 'Disc not found message box'.
I've also tried to select the /dev/sda1, which the installation accepted, only to fail later saying it can't find the ISO image.
I also tried putting the ISO image and unzipping the contents of the file onto a USB stick and selcting this during the install - same error.
I tried putting V33413-01 onto the USB stick and selcting that - its too big to burn on a CD, that didn't work..
Any ideas here? Though this was a easy installation but I'm scratching my head as to how to continue?

Not very clearly - for me at least.
Not sure - and not sure where to find instructions on how to do this.
It mentions that you don't need the source CDs
Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 source DVD 1 V33413-01 3.1G
Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 source DVD 2 V33414-01 1.7G
Not sure what to do with these anyway.
Installation
To install Oracle Linux 6.3 from DVD media, follow the following steps:
1. Download the compressed binary DVD images
Download Oracle Linux 6.3 DVD from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.
You do not need to download source DVDs to install Oracle Linux.
2. Verify the downloaded media
Verify the downloaded file by comparing its sha1sum or md5sum with the published
sha1sum or md5sum.
3. Write the DVD image to DVD
Use your favorite cd burning software to write these images directly to DVD.
You should not simply copy the files onto the DVD. You must use a DVD burner
that can accept an ISO image as input, and which can create a bootable DVD
from it. To test if you have burned the images correctly, insert a burned
DVD and ensure that multiple files and directories are visible.
6. Insert the DVD, and boot
Insert the DVD into your system, boot from DVD, and follow the on-screen instructions
to deploy Oracle Linux!

An error occurred while reconnecting P: to \\JSERVER\Data Microsoft Windows Network: The network path was not found. This connection has not been restored.

Almost every day when I open my computer I get this message:
An error occurred while reconnecting P: to \ \ JSERVER\data Microsoft Windows Network: The network path was not found. This connection has not been restored.
We then have to go through the process of resetting everything from start to finish just so I can connect to the server. There is no reason that we can find that causes this other than maybe windows updating every night. Any suggestions as to how to
fix this?

it sounds like you have a network drive you are trying to map even though you are not logged in maybe in a script or task instead of backing up to :P backup to the share, make sure you have security set properly to run the task when not logged on.
I assume you are running a backup of some sort as this is the backup forum..

Need Help ASAP! TV Show won't sync, required disc not found

I need some help!!! I am trying to sync a TV SHow to my iPod and I can't get it to work. For some reason in iTunes, I have to completely unplug and plug in my iPod anytime I want it to sync, pressing the sync button does not work, neither does pressing the apply button after checking the TV show that I want to sync. SInce I don't have to update any settings for music, this isn't a problem, I just unplug my iPod and plug it back in and it syncs automatically. The error message I get when trying to sync Shows, or videos or anything where you have to update is Can't sync iPod required disc not found. If someone could respond to this right away, I would appreciate it as we are going to be traveling today, and I would love to have something to watch during my four hour flight!

Mountain Lion installer will not let me choose my Lion Partition as an install location

Mountain Lion installer will not let me choose my Lion Partition as an install location.
Any ideas why?

Again, why will the Mountain Lion installer not allow me to select my Lion partition as the location for the install?
Good question. That's the main way it's supposed to be installed. You shouldn't even need to choose a partition. You purchase Mountain Lion through the App Store, it downloads to the Applications folder and automatically begins the installation on the drive where Lion or Snow Leopard resides as soon as the download is complete.

I still cannot update my iTunes. But I'll have to figure how to fix that.
What error message are you getting when you try to update your iTunes, neloyo?

Hey Podieboy,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are receiving a message about missing files when you start iTunes. The following resource may provide more information:
iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS1408
If the file/song is not important, you can simply delete it from your library to avoid this error message in the future:
