Hi,

I just placed a new Harddisk (samsung 500 GB) in my macbook. On my original HD I had 2 partitions, one for OSX and 1 for Windows. I have cloned the OSX one before installing the new HD, I tried doing the same for the windows one but I couldn't do it with CCC or Superduper.

The new HD is HFS+ journaled but when I open bootcamp I can't proceed to the partititioning part of the process because it tells me the formattation is wrong (but its what is asks for :( ).

I did run diskutility to repair permisions and have the orginal HD now in an enclosesure running over USB 2.0

How can I get either my orginal install or a new install of windows?

Any help greatly appreciated!

Is the drive set up as one partition or two? I believe it needs to be a single partition for BootCamp to function properly.
