Boot camp and Partitioning my hard drive

**DNoMac** · 07-04-2008, 02:05 PM

I downloaded boot camp 2.0 and attempted partioning my hard drive. Everytime I try, an error message pops up saying i need to "backup the disk and use disk utility to format it as a single mac os extended (journaled) volume. Restore your info to the disk and try using boot camp." My hard drive is formatted as a single mac os extended (journaled). I attmepted to restore my hard drive to an external one, but it didn't work either. Any suggestions (Carlos!!!)??

I have a copy of Windows XP SP3 and wanted to install it. Also, I have a Macbook with the intel chip, so hardware shouldn't be an issue.

Alright, I have a few questions and hopefully you guys can help me out and please give me honest answers. I'm 21 I'm healthy. I want to take steroids cuz I want to get bigger and ripped. I'm already a big guy..I have a big frame,broad shoulder i'm not some skinny boney guy. I'm about 210 pounds. My first question is Does steriods burn any fat off ur stomach. I don't see it as fat because their is no celulight in my skin. my other queastion is what are the cycles and the process i have to follow, if u have any legitiment reading material please send me some, and my other question is all I hear about steriods are bad things. i went to so many doctors and they said there bad..but I did my own research and it's a natural testostrone inside steriods so what are my risks?

thank you for your time

thank you for your time

you should start your own thread in the steroid Q+A section, as for reading material the board is full of it, all of the questions you asked here have already been aswered again and again.
take some time to do some reasearch.
