How can I boot Windows XP Embedded from SD?
SD is connected directly to Intel US15W SCH (SDIO).
BIOS supports boot from SD (Linux boots successfully).
Thank you in advance,
Leonid.
I am using the SQL Server Agent to run some jobs every day, but the problem is that whenever the server (the machine itself) is restarted, the SQL Server Agent doesn't automatically start when the computer boots back up again...and I have to start it manually myself.
How can I set the Server Agent to Auto-Start after a computer restart? Is there a particular Windows Service I need to set as auto-start ?
Why do computers have speakers inside of them that are pretty much only used for stuff before the OS boots? Are there other uses? Why were they added? Do newer computers still have them?
On my 2012 MacBook Pro (15 inch, non retina, i7, 10GB RAM) after successful installation when Mavericks tried to boot, it is freezing there with "Still waiting for root device" (Seen Using CMD + V during boot).
Someone please help. My Mac is not usable anymore. Boots in safe mode but freezes in safe mode too. From safe mode reinstalled Mavericks but failed again with same error.
If it can't be fixed please let me know if it can be reverted.
I have a service called omsService.exe which is taking half a gig of ram. I've googled the service but can't seem to find out what it is. Any ideas? I'd prefer to now have to shut it down every time my PC boots if its needed
I am using redhat-linux terminal to connect to a router device by means of 'telnet'.
While the device boots, the characters are getting printed in garbage manner which is as follows,
In terminal, If I click on the the menu 'Terminal'-- 'Reset', then it is getting changed to proper alphabetical.
Is there any way available to prevent it ?
I have tried setting the encoding of the terminal to UTF-8 from the menu options. But, still the same issue.
After some work on my computer, perhaps some updates installs, it didn't boot anymore. BSOD on windows logo loading. After some research I've found out that if I replace the SYSTEM hive of the register with the last backup it boots ok, but of course goes back to an old stage of machine setup. So my question is: where does register stores hardware and/or updates/software that loads in the machine boot, so that I can check which program is producing that BSOD and disable it?
System is Win 7 64 bits SP1
After 2 years my Vista (32-bit) machine now boots quite slowly.
The event viewer tells me two programs comming up slow: explorer.exe and svchost.exe.
Fine. But what can i do that these programs comes up as quickly as before ?
When I boot Ubuntu from my USB hard drive, it says "Missing Boot MNGR". It only boots from CDs and DVDs.
This is an Acer Aspire with Windows 7 boot manager.
Hello,
CentOS 5.3
After booting up. I am wondering what is the name of the log file that contains if all services where successfully loaded or not?
For example when computer boots you get a list of start services and they can be OK or FAILED.
Is there a log file where this information is kept? I had a look in the following directory /var/log/ but not sure which one will contain the informaiton that I need.
Many thanks for any advice,
Hi folks, I think I have found a bug in Ubuntu 10.04 beta, but since its a fairly vague problem of non booting after an install (Question Here) i wanted to know what information to gather?
Summary of question: Install of 10.04 goes happily, but boots to a frozen un-responsive splash screen
I'm running VirtualBox in Windows. I have Linux 10.04 installed as a VM.
Whenever I log in I have to run to following command to mount my shared Windows web dev folder:
sudo mount.vboxsf web_apps /mnt/web_apps
Where can I put this line (minus the sudo) so that it will run once when Linux boots up? I'm guessing there must be a root .profile or .login script that runs at some point?
I have two sticks of OCZ 2GB PC2 9600 RAM. When I attempt to boot with both sticks inserted, I am met with a continuous string of system beeps (and no bootup). The system boots fine when only one stick is inserted, but obviously that leaves me with less RAM than I'd like to have. What could the problem be?
System specs are:
Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3L
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400
Sticks of OCZ 2GB PC2 9600 RAM
Zotac GeForce GTS 250 1GB
2x Seagate 500GB SATA HDs
I have a dell inspiron mini 10. It boots from an external CD-ROM drive and goes through the first part of the windows XP home install with no problem, but on reboot it loses the CD-Rom drive when it goes into sysprep.
Any ideas on how to get around this to complete the install?
I'm working on a software package I'd like to be able to release as a virtual appliance. I'll be exporting the appliance from VirtualBox as a .ovf file. Outside of vmware server, are there any Windows host options that allow me to start the appliance when the host OS boots?
Hi all,
I just installed a Kingston 64 GB SSD into my laptop, replacing the old 80 GB 5400 RPM one. The drive starts up and works fine every other time. For example, if I'm running normally, and press "Restart", I get:
2100 Initialization error on HDD0.
I turn off the computer manually, restart, and...it boots into Ubuntu again. This happens every other time without fail...anyone know what the problem could be?
Anyone know if it is possible to get a non-domain Server to pick-up it's updates from a domain included WSUS server?
Just thinking about Hyper-V host Servers, in a single server environment clearly this cannot be part of the domain because at the time the VM Host boots the Domain Controllers is not available. However is there any way to make this Hyper-V Host collect it's updates from the WSUS server.
My PS2 Mouse does not want to work on Win 7. I reinstalled Windows 7 3 times and still my mouse does not want to work, PS2 keyboard works fine.
Windows boots up and then I can only use the keyboard.
I am trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on my laptop. First I installed it inside Windows and when it boots for first time I got the error message "couldn't find root filesystem , try partition table to fix the problem " . When I want to install it on a single partition (normally) and when it told me to chose a partition I don't find any partition (entire disk) .
I have 2 primary partitions and 3 logical partitions. How can I proceed with the install ?
I have a Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 8000, and when the charger/usb-hub is connected, the computer won't start. All I get is the bios boot screen, and it won't go further. But if I disconnect either the usb-cable or the power-cable to the charger the computer boots normally.
Any suggestions as to what's causing this behaviour? I've tried the charger on two different computers with the same result.
My laptop harddrive has developed some serious read errors in the windows partition. Windows 7 still boots but every single action takes an aeon, and it is definitely due to a harddisk error not due to any spyware. I'm using the Ubuntu partition now. I've ordered a new harddrive but my laptop didn't come with a Windows 7 install disk (I think I was meant to make one with the windows 7 tools).
So how can I install Windows 7 on my new harddrive?
I am trying to start xampp when the ubuntu starts on ubuntu 9.10. I tried going to system-preferences-startup applications adding it there, but it didn't work. I surmised it was because it needs to be started as root. I know you can make a startup script some how, but I'm not sure how to do it. How can I make it start xampp when the computer boots, even without logging in?
FYI, the command for starting it is sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
I am trying to use a Drive Maps GPO on Server 2012 - User Configuration - Preferences - Windows Settings - Drive Maps.
Problem is I want to map a drive to D: but this is automatically assigned to the DVD drive.
Question is can I prevent D: being used as the next drive letter when Windows 8 boots up? I seem to recall in early version of Windows, or maybe it was Novell, a first_drive environment variable for this purpose.
I use Windows 7 with a laptop specifications processor core (Core i3), 2 GB DDR3 RAM, the remaining capacity on the system partition (25 GB).
I do not know why the "welcome screen" takes a long time (about 40 sec), but yesterday only took about 10 sec.,
I tried to defragment the disk and do a virus & spyware scan with antivirus, but still the "Welcome screen" comes along.
How do I get the welcome screen to pass by faster when Windows boots up?
I installed Hyper-v 2008 r2 on a Windows 7 box thinking it works like Virtual PC because I wanted to run a Windows 2008 R2 64 vm. Now my machine dual boots between Windows 7 and hyper-v.
How do I completely remove hyper-v and get the box back to the state before the install?
