I know, i know. STOP YELLING!
So i have a car that i love very much, and i also have a MacBook that i love. I use the forums for no other purpose then to read about my car and how to modify it. SOOOOOO... i read on my car forums how to manipulate the ECU using a windows based program, which sucks because i dont have a shiny aluminum cased computer that i paid a lot of money for that runs windows, kinda bummed, still love my macbook though... but i digress...
so i start thinkin... im gonna run bootcamp and install windows on my computer! Well then I get all excited. I'm like Jo Jo the idiot circus boy with a pretty new pet. <Tommy Boy>
I open bootcamp and set aside 10 gigs of space aside from my HD for the windows install...it does its thing...it tells me to insert windows disk, i do, next thing you know, badda bing, badda boom, its askin me if i wanna partition this space for the installation of windows. Looked like it was my entire HD (reading was in MB's it was like 131,555,555, or something to that effect), so i go, forget that! and i decide to quit the process. IDK if i made a bad choice, IDK, but anyway i shut the computer down then restart it while holding the Option key, like my computer savvy and always trusty buddy (who was there the whole time) instructed me to do.
WEll WHADAYA KNOW! just as i had been afraid of after hearing the uncertainty in his voice, theres no MAC selection available for me to choose! No idea what to do, i panic, i eject the windows cd from my disk drive and poof, just like that, the windows selection that i could have clicked, goes up in smoke.
Now when i run my startup disk, when im prompted on where i want to save my os to, theres no disk to save it to...
Any Help would be greatly appreciated!
