Dear merciful forums,

When I load up my computer and hold down option, I now only receive an option to load into my Mac OS and no longer can seem to get into my Windows OS. Under "Devices" in my finder, it shows the Bootcamp option, I just can't seem to get into it.

I noticed that my windows was running a little weird, and had restarted to hopefully fix the problem (programs didn't seem to be responding). I use Windows very heavily on this computer, so I really need to resolve this problem!

Please help!!

P.S. Talk to me like I'm an idiot, because I basically am when it comes to computers.

hope you made disc image or backup of wins as seems like you'll have to use boot camp to remove partition then start again with boot camp if made disc image of windows the bootcamp must be same size as original or 1mb etc larger or get message not enough space on disc.
