BrandenJunior Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 My MultiBoot DVD created from the flykites site has a problem, when i mount it from the winimage software and run it on Virtual Pc it works fine, but on a real system it fails to Boot and gives me an error "81002F9" Error booting CD/DVD drive, what could be the problem ?The Same DVD works fine on virtual PC but dosent boot on a real system, the "real" system i refer to here is the same system which also has Virtual Pc Installed.HELP !!!

tjhart85 Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Probably bad media. Try a different brand of DVD's. I've had some strange problems that get cleared up by simply changing media brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidSage Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 it never hurts to resave the image with a fresh injection of whatever loader.bin file you use, Resetting the defaults in the bios has solved a related issue for me once or twice. Also if you go inside your pc a lot. Dbl chk the ide cable, it may be loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had some strange problems that get cleared up by simply changing media brands.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I dont think its bad media or the IDE cable is not into place properly. I think its something else, otherwise how do you explain the same media booting properly under Virtual PC , whereas not booting on the same system which hosts the Virtual PC software ? In both cases I used the same DVD drive to read the disc, in one case it worked and in another case it didnt, I think its a CD Shell Problem, I have used the old Diskemu very well without any problems before....I think I should get back to it, since this CD Shell software acts very weirdly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandonS_Mil Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 You did read what you wrote... right....I dont think its bad media or the IDE cable is not into place properly. I think its something else, otherwise how do you explain the same media booting properly under Virtual PC , whereas not booting on the same system which hosts the Virtual PC software ?That is EXACTLY the reason...

derernesto Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 r u sure that u have burned it in the appropriate way...i know it sounds kinda stupid, but sometimes mistakes can be caused by the most unexpected easiest tings.bye,derernesto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrunner Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 (edited) Might be a DVD read or BIOS problem.Some older PC BIOS/DVD combination do not support DVD boot and/or boot to DVD with >2GB imageTry the boot DVD disc on another PC, preferrably a newer model.eg. my older A7N266VM desktop would not boot one DVD while my newer Dell 700M laptop boots the same DVD just fine.Turned out that if I used a different DVDR or DVDROM drive with the same DVD boot disc on the A7N266VM, it will boot properly.
