Q: BootCamp Windows 10 Issues
Hello,
I have a 27" iMac Late 2015, Retina-5k, purchased a few months ago and running El Capitan (OS X 10.11.5)
I recently purchased a Windows 10 in order to create a dual boot. Naturally, since I'm posting here, it didn't work.
I tried everything I could.
First, using the USB that came with the Win10 I created an ISO. I placed this ISO on another USB drive and following the instructions using BootCamp I would get the an error along these lines: BootCamp failed installation, There was not enough space to create a partition. - Evidently I do have plenty of space.
Second, I copied the ISO on my desktop and restarted the process. Same outcome.
Third, I downloaded a Win10 ISO from MS, placed it on the desktop and restarted the process. Doing it this way, BootCamp was able to create a partition, and the restarted the computer and prompted the windows installation. After inputing the windows product key, I selected the "BOOTCAMP" drive, formatted (noted that the name changed), selected it and after hitting "Next" I get an error something like this:We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one. For more information see Setup log files.
Any suggestions?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Please use BC Assistant and download BC6 drivers for W10 from Apple.
Once you download it to a USB flash drive, run setup.exe from the Bootcamp folder. Test switching between OSX and Windows using System Preferences -> Startup Disk and Control Panel -> Bootcamp, respectively.
