I am trying to dual boot my iMac with windows 7, but when it restarts it comes up with Status: 0cx0000098 and it says I need to restart and let windows start normally and repair windows. How would I do this while dual booting?

You haven't told us whether or not Windows 7 was installed correctly and had been working before this error appeared? In any event, you can not repair Windows 7 without using your original Windows 7 DVD.

OK, what kind of Windows 7 disk are you using to install? The only disks that are acceptable are: Microsoft boxed full install of Windows 7 x 32 or 64 bit, and a System Builder's Full install of Windows 7 x 32 or 64 bit. Other versions such as OEM, upgrade, etc will fail to install.
