Hello All,

I just installed Windows 8.1 over a previous installation of 7 through bootcamp on my MacBook Pro. The problem is now that this is installed I am unable to boot to OS X. On Boot I hold down option and select my OS X Partition but i just get a spinning circle of death and a loading bar. Bar goes about 3/4 of the way then the machine just shuts right down.

Tried to go through recovery mode and just do a clean install of Mavericks however it does not allow me to select any drives. Says they are locked.

Any idea how to get out of this jam I am in folks?

Thank you!

Matthew
