Hi so i am trying to install bootcamp on a external drive with SL and a partition for win 7
I have install windows 7 successfully using parallels so i know the disk works does anybody know why this might be happening.
I do have several internal drives and sometimes it boots the wrong disk of which one hangs on the blue screen?
any thoughts why it hangs?
Mac Pro 2.8 Quad Core, Mac OS X (10.6.4), 10gb ram
when it gets to the apple logo it have already choosen to boot into osx
to get the option which to boot into you have to hold down the option key at startup
I tried that and boot from the windows disk and it just flashes on the no entry sign
Is the Windows installation in Boot Camp on an external drive.
I am attempting to install it on another internal harddrive not the main drive that has SL on.
I attempted it on a different internal HD with ML and got the no entry sign. What is going on!!!!
Remove all drives except for the one you are installing Windows on.
Did that no entry flashes up.
Just tried to make a iso in disk utility and tried it on my new laptop.
copying failed and if i try and do it with the disk the drive goes crazy.
I have installed this disk using parallels on a trial so it's not the disk what is happening really don't know what else to do! windows doesn't supply 7 as a download anymore does it?
I have now re attempted to install on my new MBP and it worked!?! so the disk is ok
I recently changed my dvd drive cuz my last one broke, i thouhght maybe it's this but I have since then install snow leopard and this copy of win 7 on parallels?!?!
bootcamp hangs on apple logo
