After updating my firmware in my mini i decided to run bootcamp, but when i do i get the error message "you must have the latest firmware"

I have it downloaded with a few other updates that i did, and when i run the firmware updater it says that i have the latest version.

Anyone got any ideas.

Is there any way to make the OSX partition the default because it seems that every time i switch on my mini it boots into windows.
I only want to use windows on the odd occasion so this would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Go into the Start Up disk utility in the control panel (XP) or system properties (OSX) and choose Macintosh HD and then press restart.
