I've had no problem partitioning HDDs before, but Bootcamp Assistant won't partition my Intel X25M.

I receive an error message saying: "Some files cannot be moved. Wipe drive, reload files and try again."

Any suggestions?
 
no NO just stick in the install disk (the one that came with the computer) and hold c on start up, go to disk utility and do repair disk verify disk and the other two. that WILL fix ur problem! :D
 
I did the whole time machine restore thing - left it to run overnight. Works now. How exceedingly odd!
 
Repair disk permissions, repair disk (from Disk Utility [from your restore disk]). In fact, do both. Reboot, try again. Voila. ^.^
