[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1119660, member: 46727"] Your screen shots and the message you received are not what you reported in your first post.... Your hard drive is too full for Boot Camp to adequately create a new partition. That's one problem... (I guess because you moved the files from the external) The second problem is the drive is fragmented so that there will not be enough contiguous space to create a partition even if you move files from the drive. My advice: Buy a new large hard drive and replace the one you have. Reinstall OS X and your apps on the new hard drive. Then, use the BC assistant to create a partition for Windows. It should work OK. Thanks for posting the screens shots. [/QUOTE]
