HI friends again, I tried to do the bootcamp install today and it failed miserably. I followed all the directions but windows got all hung up on step two of the installation. It got to 1% then just hung there....for an hour...and did nothing.
She had tried several times to do this and each time windows takes forever to install. She said one time it took all night and then in the morning when she tried to load up windows she saw the bootiing windows page with the four colors and then BAM - all black. Nothing. She had to hold the button...
Tomorrow I'm going to try again, let it do it's thing then try and erase the video card driver from the command line. People are saying this works.Question, in boot camp assistant the first screen says to download the extra drivers from the net and not to use one's on a disc. The options are to burn a cd or dvd or save it to an external drive. I tried to save to an external drive but it wouldn't go. So tomorrow I'll burn to disc. Do I need to do this step?? I have an osx boot disc. Aren't drivers I need on that?
