Windows 7 Disk Error Press Any Key To Restart
Windows XP pro sp 4 on my mac I get this error message disk error press any key to restart usb after all the files are installed:"Press any key to boot from CD. Disk Error. Press any key to restart."I partitioned 21 gb to fat32 using the boot camp assistant. I have Leapoerd. Any suggestiones? I did search the forum and no answers and apple has this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1722 but it doesn't really apply because I never had those options.

You're not the first to miss the step that says you need to format Partition 3 [BOOTCAMP] even if you are using FAT32 in Windows XP. Start Windows Setup again, but this time, format the volume as directed.Nate Helpful (0) Reply options Link to this post by Eric3, Eric3 Oct 16, 2014 11:39 AM in response to Nathan Alden Level 1 (0 points) Oct 16, 2014 11:39 AM in response to Nathan Alden For posterity, here's what the hybrid MBR looked like after repartitioning with Boot Camp Assistant on Snow Leopard:$ sudo fdisk /dev/disk0Disk: /dev/disk0 geometry: 9729/255/63 [156301488 sectors]Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending #: id cyl hd sec - cyl hd sec [ start - size]------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1: EE 1023 254 63 - 1023 254 63 [ 1 - 409639]

Okay so this has been giving me problems for the past hour or two.. I just did a fresh install of Mac OSX 10.5.8 Leopard, and started bootcamp. I have a brand new copy of Windows XP Professional with SP2 so that shouldn't be a problem.. Well, I get all the way to windows being installed and it restarting, but once it restarts it says "Press any key to boot from CD" then four seconds disk error press later "Disk error, press any key to restart." Obviously any key doesn't work. Now I am aware that this is a formatting error. It should be formatting with NTFS but instead it formats with FAT32 and does NOT give me that option to change the formatting process. I can't really go out and get another copy of XP, because let's face it. This isn't cheap stuff we're dealing with. If you have a solution, it's well appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

The formatting shouldn't matter as XP can exist on either a FAT-32 or NTFS partition. And, if you created a partition that was 32 GB or larger with Boot Camp, you have no other choice but to use NTFS. You didn't provide us with any other details - like how large a partition you created with BC and whether or not your copy of XP SP2 is either a MS boxed full install version or an OEM system builders full install version. For now, the only advice I can give you is to start over and try again. Regards.

I've reformatted the machine with OSX 10.5 on a Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Here's how far I get: - Use boot camp to partition the drive, it then says to insert the cd, and I can press a button after the partitioning is done to restart and install. - after the restart occurs, the windows setup begins, and I install, there is a C drive (fat) and an option to install on this drive and leave it as is (or I can format as NTFS at this step), so I install on C as it is - after the install is done the computer restarts, immediately after the restart though I get a 'Disk error' message is DOS at the top left of my screen, directly after 'Press any key to boot from CD.." After first getting this error I tried installing windows again using a quick NTFS format, but got the same error w/ an addtional message about some missing dll afterwards, so I tried booting into OSX after this and restored the drive w/ boot camp, then tried again, but got the same error once again.. An idea what I can do to resolve this issue? Update Here's the error that I get when I format the drive as NTFS, instead of
