If you mean this:

bootcamp_bootscreen.jpg



You need to press and hold alt/option, also labelled with ⌥
 
The option key is used to get to this screen dude. Bottom left, second one in.

And why do you need 3 threads?:confused:

they were all on diff things but i just hit option and control ? thats it cause wen i hit it it boots to the one thats like there it wont lemme choose its not working errrrrrr
 
As I said, it's also called ALT or Option.

It's quite a common key :rolleyes:

i know but i dont have that symbol but yea when im hitting it it only boots up to leopard rabble and it says i cant single partition i dont really care i just wanna use ubuntu oops my mistake i was hitting the wrong thing dont hate me:D:DD::D:D:D:D:D:D:D: sorry just so excited about the wireless fix for ubuntu :D
 
You do know you have to hold down the Option key to get the menu right? Not just hit it. And as for the threads things it could have been contained into one, but whatever.
