[QUOTE="paul88, post: 728044, member: 68014"] Ok, so I have followed the instructions above and I am still having the same problem. After selecting the 'Boot Camp' partition, there is [B]no option screen for formatting[/B] - it simply doesn't appear. It goes from selecting the partition to use, to installing XP. There is no error message. The install completes, the machine reboots and the following text appears. Press any key to boot from CD. . . . . (followed by) Disk Error Press any key to restart I waited ten minutes, and nothing else happened after this. Any further suggestions?! :) [/QUOTE]
