[QUOTE="Imrankhan, post: 166952, member: 15643"] Here is what happened. I bought HP Envy dv6 7201tx (i5,6GB,2GB nVidia,750GB,Win8 Pro) I used EaseUS Partition manager to resize "C:" and create a new partition in my notebook. Unfortunately it failed after restart.:shock: And windows failed to load and UEFI told that boot not found.:confused: I restarted nearly 7 to 8 times. Its no avail.:cry: So I decided to Repair using Windows 8 USB-HDD created from ISO. Since I am not provided with any DVD Accessories from HP. To my surprise it doesnt recognise my USB. I went into BIOS setup and modified something like "Legacy support" to "Enabled" which is already disabled. And the "Secureboot" option below it automatically faded out to "Disabled". And it said your system will boot in BIOS Mode in next restart. After reboot I found UEFI to recognise my USB and furthur continued to install Windows 8 and activated it using the Product Key.:thumb: And in the process i formatted my entire harddisk from GPT to MBR. To my surprise I found System properties to show "Installed Memory: 6.00GB (929MB usable):shock: Then only i found myself wrong in doing the process. I have to install Windows 8 with UEFI Enabled and get my RAM memory back. Please help me. Note that UEFI Mode doesnt recognise my bootable USB-HDD. [/QUOTE]
