ive installed remix os and configure it as default os but now im unable to boot windows is there any solution to this withoout having recovery cd or usb plz help
82 views no reply need help plz
You made it the default os, thats the problem. If you can get an app which can change the boot sequence from remix os, than you can fix it without the recovery disk, otherwise you will need the recovery disk. I am saying all this assuming you have actually installed remix os on your harddisk. If your booting remix os from a usb, remove the usb before booting up your pc
more info would be nice...like how and where you installed remix os.
if on the same hdd but different partition, i m sure you replaced the windows bootloader.
if on another hdd, try going into the boot menu during post and select the different hdd and see.

Already Fixed The Issue With A Old CD Of Windows 7.
So, here is my tablet condition:
1. UEFI
2. Windows 10 32 bit
3. 64-bit Processor
4. Secure boot already off
RemixOS version I use : 64bit Beta version (with UEFI compability)
Installed it using "official procedure tool'.
What have I try to do and what happens after it:
1. Installing remix OS via installer provided on Hard Disk (C: drive only available with 7GBs of free space)
a. Rebooting using provided reboot message from installer
Result : rebooting automatically to win 10 without boot option.
b. Rebooting using "shift + restart" (Advanced Startup)
Result : When choosing "boot from a different place", there is "Remix OS" listed alongside with "EFI USB", "USB CD", etc. But, when I choose Remix OS, it runs straight to windows 10 instead (no error or anything else, just boot through it).
2. Installing Remix OS via installer provided on USB drive (32GB)
Same result with point 1a and 1b.
Other options I have "tried":
- I have tried installed using EasyBCD, but turns out it doesn't provide much compability with UEFI boot mode.
- I tried using easyUEFI, but since I don't have any FAT32 drives (my SD Card is exFAT formatted, and C: can't be partitioned using partition manager tool), it doesn't help me.
- I tried using the grub2win option, but since my windows version is a 32bit one, grub2win can't run.
- There is no option to turn the UEFI BIOS mode to legacy.
Question:
- Why the booting runs straight to windows, without even showing any boot options?
- Why the booting still runs straight to windows even after selecting Remix OS from advanced startup boot?
- Any options left for me to try?
You can not run any 64 bit OS on this Tablet. Because UEFI only support 32 bit OS. Many Bay-Trail tablets has this limitation.
I agree here,baytrail is generally 32 bits
Hello everyone and thanks for these great releases!!
I have a Lenovo miix 700 Windows based tablet, and I'm interested in a dual boot with RemixOS and Window 10 using the touch screen only, without the keyboard.
I have RemixOS efi folder extracted and running on the same partition of WIndows (C: ), and I can boot through UEFI normally.
THe problem is - this requires to enter the BIOS in order to chose UEFI OS, which means requires having the keyboard attached to enter the BIOS settings. and being a tablet, I don't have the keyboard with me all the time.
I'm looking for a way to boot into RemixOS from Windows 10, without the need for the keyboard, by using a batch file script or any other application available that will restart the device and boot directly into RemixOS.
I also want to keep both Windows 10 and RemixOS on the same partition , without the need for a separate partition for RemixOS
I know that devices based on Legacy can use easyBCD and iReboot to achieve this, but I couldn't find an equivalent for UEFI bios.
Maybe using METRO boot manager and add an entry for RemixOS? IS it touch enabled?
I'd be grateful for any help to achieve this! Thanks in advance!

easyuefi not running well in Win 10 Anniversary Update. I prefer grub2win
any news or tuto to easyboot on win10 tablet without keyboard ?
thanks is advance for your help
That's something I've been trying to get to work in the past days!
I've shrunk my C Partition and created a new one with 16GB formatted in FAT32 for Remix OS.
Extracted the ISO and copied the files onto the new partition.
Added a new entry with easyuefi (Type Linux/other OS pointing to the efi\boot\bootx64.efi file on the new partition)
Created a shortcut for the advanced start %windir%\system32\shutdown.exe /r /o /f /t 00
BUT Remix OS doesn't boot in resident mode (it get's stuck on the Remix OS boot logo) ... in guest mode Remix OS boots just fine!
I don't have an idea why this is happening and how to solve this one ... maybe someone like @RemixOS_Jason does
http://support.jide.com/hc/en-us -> Submit an idea (feature request) and ask them for a touch supported bootloader
Remix OS is supposed to use the blue Windows Boot Manager, correct?
But on my Windows tablet (Lenovo Miix 700), I always get a gray boot screen which asks me to choose "Windows" or "Remix OS".
If I select "Windows", then it will load the blue Windows Boot Manager screen (without the Remix OS option).
Can anyone explain what's going wrong?
How can I force Remix OS to use the actual Windows Boot Manager?
The reason I want the actual Windows Boot Manager is because it's easy to customize the countdown timer & boot preference. With the current gray boot screen, I can only edit the timer by mounting my boot partition & editing complicated files.
OS: Windows 10 Pro x64
Bios: UEFI with Secure Boot & Fast Boot disabled.
Remix OS version: Latest (3.0.207)
Installation method: Remix OS For PC "Installation Tool" (16 gb chosen, targetted to 20 gb NTFS partition, drive letter "R:" assigned)
Okay, I discovered the solution. You can read the quoted posts below. It is not possible to add Remix OS as an option in the Windows Boot Manager...if the Windows OS was installed in UEFI.
I don't know why this isn't made more public.
I wasted so many days trying all sorts of experiments, and thinking something was wrong with my system.

UEFI WBM can't load anything other than windows bootloader; so it can't chainload grub2. It does however see any /efi folder as a seperate UEFI [usb] device.

If Windows was installed in BIOS mode, you get the Windows boot menu which is touch compatible, but if Windows was installed in UEFI mode, then the Windows boot menu can't be used to load non-Windows operating systems (thanks Microsoft) and so you get the non-touch grub boot menu. Annoying, I know, and it's the reason I ended up rebuilding my Lenovo Thinkpad Helix in BIOS mode, despite the slower boot process.

Recently, I just installed Remix OS on my USB and it worked fine. Because of my USB port are bit unstable, I just trying to install Remix OS on my HDD (hd0,7). But, when trying to boot from Windows Boot Loader. It shows "minimal BASH-like command - - -" , i found a solution for this and bring me to the Remix Mode Options (Resident/Guest). I tried to boot Remix from any options but it only shows and stop at blinking kernel messages and error message
"intel_powerclamp: Intel powerclamp does not run on family 28 model 43
intel_rapl : driver does not support cpu family 28 model 43"
When booting from USB, it doesn't matter and it can continue booting to Remix, but it won't continue boot when ran from HDD from my HP 14 Notebook PC.
I have alternative by using my Ubuntu's Grub legacy and succesfully boot. but, it won't save any settings.
Please help me to resolve my problem.
Here's my Laptop Specifications:
CPU: AMD-A8 6410 2.0GHz
GPU: Onboard
RAM: 2GB, 1.71GB usable
Boot Mode: Legacy, Secure boot: OFF
Installed OSes: Windows 7, Windows 10, Ubuntu, Remix OS(unbootable).
N. B: sorry, bad english. I'm javanese

It seems you're booting into guest mode since nothing is being saved. How do you boot into Remix OS? I have an HP laptop too and press F9 as the laptop boots which then allows me to boot using the EFI file. That's the only way I can boot into it as the dual-boot screen doesn't appear automatically. You have quite a bit of software installed for a machine with only 2GB of RAM in total but I don't think that's your problem. Have you installed it onto a separate partition or installed it into the Windows drive in a folder? I made a new partition of 32GB, gave it a random letter for the drive, and it boots fine to that as long as I press F9 immediately on boot (repeatedly) until the boot loader menu comes up and I choose the EFI file to boot from, and eventually after that using grub.
All HP machines have the same F9 function key which will pull up the boot menu. Try that and see if you have the option to boot from EFI or EFIx64 depending on your system. I don't know why it's not saving anything from your sessions unless it is a lack of RAM/virtual memory space. I wasn't even aware there was a guest mode if you installed to hdd (so maybe there isn't). You could try to produce a logcat of what is happening as you boot and especially as you shut down to find out why it's not holding anything from your sessions in memory. I have 8GB of RAM in my laptop but as far as I know Remix OS only gets to use a fraction of that (about 2GB) so if you're only using a 2GB RAM in total laptop with several OS already installed on it you were bound to hit problems sooner or later as you add more, but whether that's related to your current problem I wouldn't know.
Well, I guess it was my fault because of using Linux-created Partition more than using Windows one. Maybe I'll try using windows-created partition, Thanks for your reply.
EDIT: It doesn't work, I tried to install it on 9 Laptops with 7 Models for 5 Manufactures (My friends are Remix Anthusiast you know) and only 2 Models have same problem with me. My Conclusion is that my Laptop model aren't supported yet to boot RemixOS from HDD.
