My imac27 has win 7 and used to access it via bootcamp, I installed parallels to be able to use both at the same time but I got tired of paying them everytime mac had an update to continue using it.
My daughter updated the mac os oneday without me knowing, i was purposely not doing it knowing once i did i wouldn't be able to get back into windows without paying parallels again, so once she did that I just decided to remove the program from the mac completely.
This is where the trouble began, I don't mind using bootcamp method, but I can't get into windows at all now even!
This is what happens now as I reboot I hold option key to choose the windows bootcamp type startup, I see the windows drive, choose it and i get a brief microsoft bar along the bottom then a very quick flash of a bluescreen then it goes blank and i am at my mac sign in screen.
The windows install is nothing huge but there is one program i use often and I just need access to it to do a project for work, I'd love to just be able to boot back into windows like the old days but I have no idea what to try or do to fix this, any help or suggestions greatly appreciated.
