Your post appears to have been made into a new thread, so in case the
original topic thread did not help resolve the problem (as it was answered)
you have an additional space to present the case.
Did you research and try the previous solution as indicated in original thread?
Install mac on a fully windows-formatted hard drive (MacBook Air)
There are other options, however if those mentioned aren't workable to you
for some reason or another, you may have to fully reinstall OS X and then
use BootCamp to create a partition for Windows OS. Some who have setup
their Mac with Windows under BootCamp have intentionally removed OS X
& left their Mac under Windows-only environment. That seemed to work as
far as it goes. Then the user buys into the antivirus and other app ratrace.
You could use a virtual machine such as Parallels if there are a few Windows
applications you like but don't want to commit to a complete separate partition.
Hopefully someone with additional ideas or clarification on those already in
the previous thread, can help you resolve the situation.
Good luck & happy computing!

Apr 30, 2016 6:42 PM in response to mrtenysonby Loner T,1. Please see How to install OS X on an external drive connected to your Mac - Apple Support and boot from this external disk and erase your internal disk and re-install OS X.
2. If your Mac is a 2011 or older model, it is a preUEFI model, and does not fully support EFI boot. Audio only works on such Mac under MBR/BIOS which the BC Assistant uses on such models. You may also need to use a DVD, rather than a USB to install Windows on such Macs.
