Hmm.... You could try getting a bootable Windows10 USB/CD and try a general repair function, see if that helps you in any way. You can also try a recovery with the bootable drive.
Clovers, Hijin25, just wait for the answer from fr33tux or cocochepeau.
The only way you can boot from the disk itself is through PXE and network booting (Advanced Windows Server things :) ). Any other way is impossible. Ah yes, good point covering RAM totally went out of my head. In general, this seems more like some specific hardware issue than anything else.
Hello,
Since you're booting from a DVD, the 5 minutes boot time seems reasonable. When you boot from this kind of support/device, a lot of things are loaded in the RAM itself. It also depends on the max speed provided by your disk reader.
Are you suggesting I boot from the ISO itself on disk? If so, I don't know how to do that.JW01, 2017-08-16 14:20:15 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure it isn't doable...
Thanks for your reply.
Not sure I understand the relevance of HDD speed. And anyway my disk boot times are OK. Also I don't have a WinXP ISO but a Windows XP system. And no VM is involved.
Maybe I wasn't clear.
I have a Windows XP system and two 8TB disk drives which XP doesn't support. To solve this problem I got the Win10PESE ISO from ToolsLib, burned it to DVD and booted from that DVD (w...
It all depends on the rig. HDD's are not known to be the fastest at boot times, especially if the system is Windows XP, quite a legacy system right now. Not really sure. If you PC specs are good, then you shouldn't have such long boot times, unless your HDD's are really slow. Did you notice anything else during the boot? Is your WinXP iso image clean? If you got it from a third party, I wouldn'...
I burned the ISO yesterday to enable me to access two 8TB drives that I had just bought for my offline Windows XP system, and it worked perfectly.
However, I was concerned about how long it took from selecting DVD boot to seeing the desktop: 5 minutes 20 seconds!
Is there anything that can be done to reduce this to a reasonable level?
Did you remove previous versions of the software from your PC and are you sure you are using the latest version? Make sure you are running only one instance of anti-malware software.
Hi, I had the same problem, it would do a scan and then when I would clean it would stop right away and say Caught and some other things can't think of offhand but it would not let me x it out and would have to minimize it and then right click to close window. That was from the time it went from 7.0.0 to the 7.0.1. I know it changes after a few weeks or so so I have been checking every few da...
