Hi.
I have the June 2011 imac 21.5. I installed Lion onto it and have had no problems at all. Today i tried to do a partition with the boot camp assistant app that was already on the mac so i could install windows 7. Everything was going fine, i put the disc in with windows 7 and it rebooted. When it rebooted i had a screen saying ''no bootable device, insert boot disk and press any key'
I tried it and nothin happened. I have been on my phone for the past 2 hours looking at solutions such as resetting pram (cmd alt p r) that done nothing. I cant boot into safe mode and holding alt/option at start up does nothing. Im getting really annoyed with it now, nothing will work and i need this fixed tonight as i have college work due in tomorrow. Any help will be appreciated.

EDIT; FIXED IT

How about telling what you did to fix it just in case someone else has the issue.
