I bought my new Macbook Pro with Leopard pre-installed yesterday after being a lifetime PC user. I decided to use bootcamp to partition my hard drive and allot some space for Windows XP. However, in trying to do the installation, I realized I didn't have Window Service Pack 2 on the install disk so the install failed. I ended up scrapping the idea and deleted the partition. However, now whenever I turn the computer on, it tells me to insert a bootable disk and press any key. I know I know I can hold the option button, and then select the OSX in order to log in. But is there some way I can fix it so that I don't have to go through that process every time I boot up? |
