The pen drive is ready and when after doing the bootcamp partition, the imac supposedly restarts with windows . It happens , but it appears a blue screen windows and the iMac back to start again from osx . How do I fix this? Already I tried several ways , since I'm in it to almost two months .

iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

Use BCA, remove your current Windows partition (since it is a new installation). Remove all external storage, except your pen drive. Run the following two steps

Recreate your BC/Windows partition and try to re-install Windows.


Do not use any USB hubs and ensure that your pen drive is a USB2 not a USB3 flash disk.

Are you not able to find the BOOTCAMP partition in the Windows Installer?


Can you post the output of the following OS X Terminal commands?


diskutil list

diskutil cs list

sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk0

sudo fdisk /dev/disk0


The "sudo" commands will prompt for your password, and it will not be echoed back. You may also see a warning about improper use of "sudo" and potential data loss due to "abuse" of the command.

User uploaded fileUser uploaded fileAlready beginning to be furious with it. I go round and round and always come back to it. I can not even get the windows installer . The last thing I see is this picture of "setup is starting ... " ... Then after a while , appears another picture of "your PC ran into a problem and needs to remain. We're just collecting some error info , and them we'll restart for you ... " and then back to yosemite again.
