[QUOTE="TomServo, post: 1204852, member: 186986"] Thanks for the quick response. First I was switching from OS X to Bootcamp using the System Preference Restart option (under the Apple icon) that worked. Then for some reason that got finicky so I did the Power Off - Power On + Option Key. Both patrons display, I arrow to the Bootcamp volume (using my wireless MAC Key board) and hit enter. That worked. Then yesterday I found and downloaded a free app called BootChamp. It worked the first few times nice and easy and fast. Then yesterday afternoon after I finished loading up all the stuff I need for work in Windows I logged off using Bootcamp Assistant that loads in Windows and was back in Mac land. Than last night I tried booting to Windows using ALL THREE methods and it won't boot. I get the Mac chord and the screen is just white. Using the Power + Option method displays the drives but still won't boot to Win7. Guess I could try using an USB mouse/keyboard at that point. Here's what is displayed from the Disc Utility Info window for my Bootcamp drive : Name : BOOTCAMP Type : Volume Disk Identifier : disk0s3 Mount Point : /Volumes/BOOTCAMP File System : Windows NT File System (NTFS) Connection Bus : SATA Device Tree : IODeviceTree:/PCI0@0/SATA@1F,2/PRT0@0/PMP@0 Writable : No Universal Unique Identifier : 09B72244-9651-4872-9C23-5C08D3AFF74D Capacity : 500.57 GB (500,569,210,880 Bytes) Free Space : 462.22 GB (462,217,355,264 Bytes) Used : 38.35 GB (38,351,851,520 Bytes) Number of Files : 116,143 Number of Folders : 0 Owners Enabled : No Can Turn Owners Off : No Can Be Formatted : No Bootable : No Supports Journaling : No Journaled : No Disk Number : 0 Partition Number : 3 Maybe that will help.
