Vista Ulitimate

Disk Boot Failure, insert systen disk and press enter,

i get this everytime i boot in to vista ultimate,

any one know how to fix this problem

 

[vickister]

remove floppy from floppy drive, or remove usb keys

dont have floppy
dont have any usb keys in
to get round the problm i have to keep on sticking the cd in which i shouldnt hve to

 

[vickister]

in that case, change the boot priority (or boot order) in your bios (usually DEL or F2 just after turning the pc on)

jumped to those two suggestions because they're the most common reason for that message

boot deviced are cd roms and hd

ide mater hd
ide slave none
ide dvd rom
ide dvd rw

and boor priority

hd
cd
floppy - disable as dont have one

The vista disc will fix it - bung it in, choose repair, choose 'fix startup problems' (or similar, can't remember the wording).

It will have detected the windows installation and will fix the first issue it finds with the bootloader process. As such, you may need to run it a few times if there's more than one problem:

(I've had bootloader missing, but there was no MBR pointing to it either - so it needed 2 goes)

i have run it several time and says there isn o problems i have 3 hd but only the ide was connected to the computer at the installation of vista, the sata drives are stil not conected yet even tho they are in my computer
