[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1114007, member: 24098"] Well, for starters, let's move this over to the correct forum... Secondly, you have a Mac[B]Book[/B] Pro, which is different from a Mac Pro (which is a desktop machine). When you went to install Boot Camp, you were prompted to print out instructions. I'm going to venture to guess that you didn't do so - so, those instructions are here: [url]http://www.google.com/url?url=http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/boot_camp_install-setup.pdf&rct=j&sa=U&ei=uESWTImoDMn6lwehqPmfCQ&ved=0CBcQFjAA&q=boot+camp+documentation&usg=AFQjCNEnFtr9hupItCe21_r9Po_bqbvMfQ&cad=rja[/url] It sounds like you have a botched Windows install. Hopefully you didn't nuke your Mac OS X partition during the process. If not, you should be able to boot into OS X, by turning the machine down and pressing and holding the Option key until the Startup Disk selection screen appears. Then, select Macintosh HD and the machine should boot into OS X. At that point, you'll want to re-run the Boot Camp Assistant and choose to revert back to a single partition. Then, read the manual and go ahead and attempt to install Windows again, this time following the steps described in the manual. [/QUOTE]
