1962 No operating system found
※ Download: Error 1962 no operating system found press any key to repeat boot sequence solucion
RJ East Coast Canada Hope this helps! Pressing Num lock didn't change the status on the keyboard and moving the mouse did nothing. Take everything out and try starting it up. BTW, I can't find my Windows 98 disk, so that's not an option.
Note: In order to try below fixes you need to use Windows Installation or Recovery disc, so make sure you are ready with any one of them before hand. So happy I came across your website.
1962 No operating system found - Everyone should have a back-up of all their drivers and a copy of their operating system or a recovery disk but this is hind-site. In some cases, users have been able to get past the message and resume using their computer as usual, but this would only last somewhere from an hour up to a few days, before locking up again and displaying the above error.
I have a new desktop computer: a LENOVO model 3493-BFG with Windows 8. I started the computer without any problem. Once Windows was automatically set up, I created a recovery media an USB hard-drive. I then restarted the computer to see if the recovery media can boot. I was unable to use it because the BIOS displayed Error 1962: No operating system found. Press any key to repeat boot sequence. I the rebooted without any USB device connected but the same message appear. If I press F12 during the BIOS POST, I then have the list of bootable devices. I select the hard-drive and the system correctly boot. So I configured BIOS to keep only the hard-drive. But the same error stops the boot process. I then reboot, press F12 then ENTER, and it's okay. Whatever the way I boot cold, or a reboot from Windows , I get the same message Error 1962: No operating system found. Press any key to repeat boot sequence. I reseted the settings to BIOS defaults inside the BIOS. I used the clear CMOS switch and saw the settings where reverted to defaults. I flashed the BIOS to latest version, which is only one week old. I configured the BIOS to disable UEFI, I tested I don't remember what. Always the same error. I used another hard-disk, with Linux. Set the BIOS to accept non UEFI boot, and everything was ok. I put back the correct hard-drive and BIOS settings. No boot if I don't use F12. I disconnected the DVD drive... I changed the SATA port of the DVD. I changed the DVD drive. I inverted DVD and HD SATA ports. In short, I can boot: Using F12 or without the DVD drive edit: this even no longer works Anyone have an idea to solve this problem? LENOVO makes no exception. I don't know if this is because the thing became too complicated with frequent evolutions, or because they don't bother. You have to configure CSM Compatibility Support Module to Enabled, as if you want to boot a legacy OS. This setting is disabled after a BIOS reset and probably upgrade. Disabling the support for older OSes just break the possibility to boot. I think this can be considered as a not serious bug. Be carefull to also set UEFI as first or only boot method which is already the default.
In the end, the ease of the fix was inversely proportional to the time I spent banging my head. Hello Beonarri and Welcome to WD forums, Please give more details in order to assist you better. I keep losing things with ya Update. Replace the Hard drive and Install OS from Scratch. Set the BIOS to accept non UEFI boot, and everything was ok. Also make sure that you don't have a disk in one of the drives. MBR is the Master Boot Record where the HDD stores the initial instructrion for booting, FAT is the Table where all the files are marked. Edited by giauquebokz, 14 February 2014 - 01:37 PM. You need to look in the Bois at the boot options. For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. It's attually a floppy disk let me look that up for you.
