Lots of solutions given for the reverse process but not the one I was looking for. I even looked on the internet for a solution through which I could maybe change the Windows installation from EFI to Legacy but no success even there. So no use of that too again, since it was not letting me add the new entries. Next I went on with EasyBCD, But failed here too since at the startup only the program said that IT HAS DETECTED THE SYSTEM IS RUNNING ON EFI BOOT MODE AND HENCE SOME FEATURES WILL BE DISABLED.
#Phoenix os error 18 install
Tried installing Grub2Win but couldn't since the program kept saying Wget program missing or failed, which I did install explicitly just for Grub2Win. If you find a good tutorial, you could try that. I don't know if there is one.Ĥ) Some other people used EasyBCD to modify the Windows Boot Manager. Instructions are on that same page.Ģ) Reinstalling Phoenix OS including the boot loader Grub.ģ) Rerun the installer and find an option to install Grub. Make sure Secure Boot is disabled in the BIOS.ġ) You can install the Grub2 boot loader using Grub2Win (). The boot loader Grub wasn't working because it wasn't installed. While installing the Phoenix OS It did ask about installing some Grub boot loader or something like that, do not remember exactly what it was, and I had skipped that part since I wasn't aware of what it was. I would also like to mention one more thing. Now I think it must be the boot loader for Windows and therefore there must be a seperate boot loader for Phoenix. I did see in the BIOS setup that one Windows Boot manager is present but wasn't sure what it is.
#Phoenix os error 18 how to
Sorry but I do not know how to reinstall the boot loader manually. One more point to add, make sure Secure Boot is disabled in the BIOS. The three options is to do a reinstall, repair the boot loader or reinstall the boot loader manually. Phoenix OS does not include a tool to repair this. My guess is that it is improperly configured or pointing to the wrong configuration files. However, I can tell you what your problem is.
If you are willing to wait, I can try out your method and see if I have the same problem. If no proper response then I would certainly go for your way. No offence, But I would first prefer to wait for others to respond. I am not sure what other information you guys might need to help me out here, so please tell me what screenshots or images you need and I will try my best to provide them.Īlso I am not very acquainted with the technical terms relating to these Booting issues so Bear with me if I act naively. So reverted the settings back to as they were in BIOS Setup menu. I also tried booting in Legacy mode(To be honest Don't know what it is) but it prompted No boot device found.
#Phoenix os error 18 windows 10
I looked through the internet and wasn't quite successful on how to resolve the issue.Įarlier also I tried installing Ubuntu alongside Windows 10 on the same laptop but no success. Then I installed Phoenix OS on that partition through a Bootable USB drive.Īfterwards when I restarted the system, it did not show any option of selecting either Windows or Phoenix, rather just booted with Windows as if there was no Phoenix OS. I made a partition of 30 gb in the Disk Management interface. So, I have a Dell laptop with Windows 10 installed on it.
I will be happy to answer any question you ask to get the clear picture. First of sorry if the question is not very clear.
