[QUOTE="Avenger2SER, post: 651608, member: 14046"] I was playing around with boot camp on my CD Mini a few months ago. To make a long story short, the install failed because I stupidly put an XP SP1 disk in to install. Now every time I restart the machine (rarely since its my HTPC) it boots strait to a dos prompt telling me there's no OS installed. This forces me to plug in a usb keyboard (my bluetooth one won't work), press option, and telling it to boot from Mac HD. There's no Boot Camp partition anymore, so I don't know why this still comes up. Any ideas? I'd hate to reinstall the OS for this, if I have to then I'll wait until I swap out the 160gb 5400rpm drive for a 250gb 7200rpm later this summer. [/QUOTE]
