[QUOTE="iosephulus, post: 838450, member: 98799"] So I used Boot Camp Utility (followed ALL of the instructions the right way) to partition my mac hard drive 40gb for windows, and the rest for mac. I put in the vista cd, told bootcamp to start the installation, and it REBOOTED!!! I was happy that I was going to dual boot vista and os x leopard. So, i told it to start the installation on my bootcamp partition. It told me I had to reformat, so I figured that it was like an HFS Partition or something (i'm new to mac) I formatted it for NTFS, and hit the install button. It copied the windows files, then started to extract normal files, was stuck at 0% until it gave me Error 8007045D. It told me I needed other files, however the whole one and only DVD was there! I entered the activation code correctly, What's wrong? Is it a mac or a windows problem? I also had an issue with not being able to boot to os x but i fixed that so no problem there. [/QUOTE]
