[QUOTE="RavingMac, post: 1298731, member: 45350"] I am stating the obvious, but just in case, you need to make sure you are booting from the USB Stick. Power on your Mac and immediatetly hold down the option key. [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1948]Starting from an external USB storage device (Intel-based Macs)[/url] EDIT: We had a thread some time back where the OP had a problem with a failed Windows/Bootcamp install that was hanging like yours. I will look for it and see if anything in it is applicable to your situation. [/QUOTE]
