Q: Boot Camp Problem on El Capitan

Im having trouble installing windows 8.1 on my macbook pro running el capitan.

I get this *****://gyazo.com/df8e8f30d171d365cfc67e375bfceb1c every time i open boot camp assistant and I'm unable to check the box that says "Install or remove windows 7 or later version."

I have a macbook pro with retina display (mid 2014) and I am running El Capitan 10.11.4.

Thank you!

    1. Please boot in Safe Mode - Try safe mode if your Mac doesn't finish starting up - Apple Support - and boot normally and retry the installation.

    2. Run the following two procedures with all external storage disconnected and retry the installation.

         Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support

         How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

     

    If neither of this work, additional steps may be required.

    Boot into Internet Recovery (Command+Opt+R), and run the following command in Utilities -> Terminal

     

    diskutil repairDisk disk0

     

    Please post the output, and then retry.

    Disk1 is a Logical Volume disk. When you repair disk0, your output should also show the logical volume being scanned/corrected.

     

    1. Backup OSX and all your files - Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

    2. Boot into Internet Recovery (Command+Opt+R) - OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support .

    3. Click on Utilties -> Disk Utility and Erase your internal whole disk.

    4. Restore OSX and your files - Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

     

    This requires a separate external disk which can accommodate TM backup - Backup disks you can use with Time Machine - Apple Support .
