Hey guys, i have a REALLY annoying issue...
Well a few days ago i wanted windows on my mac, so i got my windows xp disc and etc. I backed up my drive incase i would wipe out my HD somehow and backed it up via time machine. So when the day came, i asked for a partition about 25GB out of my whole HD which had a total space of 300GB. It also has about 78GB of free space right now. After 1 minute, it came up with a warning saying could not partition, files were un-movable or something like that. I then read about this and realised i used to have parallels installed, so then i needed to defrag it. After getting iDefrag, i ran a full defrag running on my other disc so it could defrag all the system files unlike a quick one ran from the hard drive itself. After the defragmentation completed, i went back to the proper drive and ran the boot camp assistant again, only to receive the same message. After all this trouble i still really want windows on my iMac..
Please help!
