When booting a computer what is the boot priority?

In the system BIOS you can tell the computer to "look at" a drive to boot from first . There you can select to boot from a removable drive, usually a floppy disk or USB flash drive(this option is found on most Linux systems). You can also choose to boot from a CDROM drive or Hard Disc(you hard drives). This is what all my system say and the ones I repair: 1. Removable Drive -- Usually a floppy drive (an emergency boot disk) is what it is talking about here. 2. CD-ROM Drive -- I have this set at two so I can special disks before I get to the desktop or dashboard(Mac). 3. Hard Disks -- This is your hard drive.

Can you merge an active and boot partition with a system partition and still be able to boot?

First of all boot partition must be active by default or your system will not boot. Second, there is not such thing as a system partition. There is a system disk which is usually located on boot partition. If you are asking about whether you can change size of boot partition in cost of another partition the answer is yes. The best way to do that is to use one utilities designed for such purposes, for instance, Acronis Disk Director.


When the windows 7 registry is corrupted and you cannot boot from hard drive?

I will have to know more information to help you solve it. Alternatively: Hook your HDD to another computer or boot a linux or mini xp from CD/USB to rescue data or edit your files.* If you have a Windows CD you can boot up on that and access command. Read up on "bootrec".* I'm afraid a fresh install of Windows is your quickest and easiest way to go. *Some computers require you to go into bios from boot to change boot device priority or allow you to use a boot priority start up button (F12 etc.)

How do you uninstall windows ultimate and reinstall windows 7 home please the windows ultimate was a copy?

To do this, you must boot from the Windows 7 disc or USB thumb drive. To do this, enter your BIOS, which can usually be done by pressing Delete or F8 when it is booting, or if you have a Dell by changing the boot priority right on the startup screen. After this, hot the reboot button and it should take you right into the Windows 7 setup. Make sure after this is done, you change the boot priority back to your hard drive first.
