Hey,

My windows partition stopped working on me a few days ago. I deleted it and decided to start over. Well i decided to make a 30 gig partition, but it wont work on my macbook pro. It comes up with "cannot move files." I deleted up to 70 gigs of space on my harddrive to get it to work but it wont, but it did work when i used a 20 gig partition. Now i want to try and defragment cause i heard that helps sometimes. I got Driver Genius but dont have the disk with me to boot from another drive. So i used a website to help me install mac osx leopard onto my 16 gig flash drive. Well i successfully installed it on there but when i try to boot from the flash it wont work. I held the option button down and it does not come up. I went to system preferences and startup disk and that did not work either. I think it has to do with the fact that the flash does not turn on until the computer is past that screen so it does not recognize it. I dont see the button flashing on the flashdrive until leopard starts. Any advice? and sorry for the speel.

THanks,
BlizZ
