[QUOTE="safarisurfer, post: 1302618, member: 45671"] if your network keeps disconnecting then you do have a signal issue. i had this problem with wireless n on the 5 ghz frequency. it would occasionally drop out and disconnect until i went into my router settings and changed the channel. no issues since. what i did to setup windows on my machine as a windows only machine is create a bootcamp partition. then when it goes into the install process delete the mac drive. format the boot partition and the mac drive. install on the bootcamp drive then when in windows recover the space from the formatted mac drive. This worked but I had trouble down the road. the most stable system i have used has been to actually keep the mac partition and create a windows boot camp and just use it that way as a windows machine. the default osx install is small anyway. its sort of nice to do it this way because if you ever want to switch it back to all mac you can boot to the mac partition and recover the windows partition deleting it and your ready to go in a jiffy.
