[QUOTE="Joey V, post: 871142, member: 82584"] Hi I am new to the forums and was wondering if you guys could help me with a problem... So just bought my Imac last summer and I installed Windows XP using boot camp earlier this year and just two days ago I got a virus. It turns out that the Anti Virus software I have only detects threats and does not eliminate them. So I decided to go back to my Mac OS and try to erase and wipe my windows disk to eliminate the virus for good and I tried to reformat the windows and transfer all my memory back on to my Mac disk so that I would only have the Mac disk back on. When I got back on Boot Camp assistant to figure out how to reformat, it would not let me access Boot Camp because I had not reformatted the Mac disk to be a single partition. I have already erased my Windows disk and it does not show up when I start up and press the option key but it is still a disk on my Mac. I know this is long and I was just wondering if anyone could help me Thanks! P.S. The two disks that are currently on my system are disk0s3(Windows) and Macintosh HD [/QUOTE]
