[QUOTE="Nethfel, post: 1432923, member: 89124"] Hi, welcome to the forums! You need to use a non-upgrade retail version of a Windows installation disc (many upgrade discs aren't even bootable, I'm not sure about the retail ones but I know our volume license upgrade DVD's for windows 7 aren't bootable); you will also need OSX 10.6 or later to install windows 7 in bootcamp (it may be possible with 10.5, but looking at Apple's website, they only talk about 10.7 and 10.6 with regard to windows 7 - see: [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1899]Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows[/url] ) [/QUOTE]
