Windows Vista - Non- system disk or disk error. Today I received a lot of goodies in the mail.
![]() ![]() A brand new MSI motherboard, AMD Dual Core 3. Processor, 2. 50. GB SATA Hard Drive, 2. GB DDR ram, 2. 56 n. Vidia 7. 60. 0 GT graphics card, and a bunch of other stuff. It was time to build a good performing system to replace my old system I built in 2. Tonight I did a fresh install of the Windows Vista Business Operating System on the primary 2. GB Maxtor Hard Drive. Everything was running smoothly until I encountered another problem with Windows Vista. After shutting down the computer to install my old 1. GB PATA Hard Drive (transfer files), Windows Vista would no longer boot. Instead I am left with a nice “Non- system disk or disk error” message. Now you may be asking if I had set the jumper settings correctly, or the boot sequence in BIOS. So what to do next? I threw in the Windows Vista install CD and selected the “repair” feature after booting off of the CD. ![]() The repair feature instantly recognized that the master boot record was damaged, and it fixed the problem accordingly. After a fresh restart, Windows Vista booted fine. Now I still needed to get my old Application Data files off of the old hard drive, so I reconnected the hard drive to the motherboard and yet again, “Non- system disk or disk error” JUST GREAT! Yet again, I had to throw in the Vista install CD to repair the master boot record, and now my computer boots fine with both hard drives connected. ![]() Install Windows 7 or Vista From USB. I have the same problem, with Vista cd in the cd player it wil boot, without it wil say non system disk and i have tried Vista Boot pro 3.1 and fix the boot but stil. Backup is something many people ignore until it’s too late. But there’s no excuse for this, especially now that the new Windows Vista Backup and Restore Center. I have never experienced a problem like this when i was running Windows XP, or the earlier versions of Windows, as I have moved hard drives around in the past. So in conclusion, if you ever need to throw in another hard drive while you are running Windows Vista, you might experience a problem similar to this.
