[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1205030, member: 24098"] It seems like you're misunderstanding the process. First, you run Boot Camp Assistant, this partitions the drive (essentially splitting in two). It will also download updated Windows drivers and burn them to disc for you. Once it does that, it will prompt you to insert your Windows disc, then, it will reboot which should kick off the Windows installation process. You don't use the Option key at all at this point. That's not something you need to do until Windows is completely installed and you want to toggle between OS X and Windows. [/QUOTE]
