[QUOTE="wesley04, post: 1218637, member: 198147"] I'm trying to install Windows 7 on a 2011 Macbook Pro. After partitioning the harddisk I inserted my DVD which has WIndows 7 ultimate on it, and selected 'Start the Windows installer'. Instead of Windows automatically booting up, and the thing installing itself, I get this error message: 'No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key' When I turn off the computer and restart with alt/option pressed down, the only choice I get is the Macintosh partition.... Any ideas?> [/QUOTE]
