[QUOTE="newcoyote, post: 1649283, member: 126443"] I have formatted my USB to Mac Extended Journaled and run Boot Camp Assistant. It goes through the "downloading/saving windows support software" and all the other processes it reports during the progress bar.At no point do I have the option to determine partition size. When it gets to the end, I get a permission dialog box that says "Boot Camp Assistant is trying to add a new helper tool. Type your password to allow this." I do that and from this point on, there is nothing. The main BCA windows reads "The Windows support software has been saved" and "Install this support software after Windows has been installed" and Quit. There is nothing there after quitting. Some time ago I had Windows running on my Mac but for some reason I deleted it. I don't remember how I removed it but may not have done it correctly. The old disk image is still showing with the same amount of space (100 GB) I allotted from the first time I made it. It also shows 19 folders and 57 files. I have tried erasing it, restoring it but it seems the same. Could this be the cause of my trouble? Remedies? What can I do to start from scratch or get things going? [/QUOTE]
