[QUOTE="twoodcc, post: 322196, member: 22393"] this is what is going on: i formatted the drive to MBR with disk utility. then i use bootcamp to make the drive ready for windows i startup with the xp disk. i use the xp disk to format the disk and copy the setup files then it has to restart when it comes back up, if i leave the xp disk in, it will boot the xp disk if i take the disk out, it will say 'no bootable drive, please insert one' if i hold down option, and then choose the windows drive (the only drive), it will give me the folder with the question mark. i hope all of this makes sense. i'm beginning to think that something might be wrong with my bootloader somewhere. what should i do?
