[QUOTE="Buzzard2010, post: 1150474, member: 176415"] Welcome to Mac-Forums When inserting a Windows 7 DVD to install, as you rightly say it should have a white bar that loads in around a minute, but after that it should get to a screen with a window asking for you to select your language and location, then on to installing or repairing windows. If it is going to the windows logo saying starting windows, then there is something wrong, usually an error it encounters when trying to boot from the DVD. Check your DVD for scratches etc, also like mrplow says make sure you have a full retail version. If all is good, my first suggestion would be to start OSX remove the boot camp partition, restart OSX, then recreate the boot camp and try again. Let s know how you get on and we will help further - Simon [/QUOTE]
