[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1167724, member: 38864"] I've not tried this with a Windows keyboard, but the OPTION key doubles as the ALT key on a Mac keyboard. So… when booting the computer, hold down the ALT key. You should get a list of bootable volumes on the computer. If so, select the OS X volume. Once booted into OS X, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk. Click the lock at the bottom to authorize, then select the default you want to boot from, then hit Restart. [/QUOTE]
