taq2001 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hi guys, Ok so here goes..I had Vista installed on my laptop so I backed up all of my data on an external hard drive and began installing the Mac OSX. Now I had a few problems and decided to stick to Vista for the time being until I was more free to concentrate on Installing the Mac OSX. The problem is that I formatted my main Volume on which Vista was installed, and made it into Mac OSX Extended Journaled as was told in the tutorial. I tried booting into Vista using the installation CD I got with Dell, but I realised that the volume I want to install on is no longer NTFS, and that is the only one that has enough space to install Vista. So I'm kinda stuck, would really appreciate the help. Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/120788-mac-osx-extended-to-ntfs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advokit Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Your Ghosted Dell Install wont work unless you delete the Partition using something like Hirens Boot CD. Available to D/l off Torrent Sites and the likes. Or if you know someone with a Mac that you can plug the HDD into and get them to delete the Partition and re-format as FAT32 so when you load Vista you can Re-format again to NTFS. Its possible that a Vista OEM CD may do the trick if you have access to one. Hope that helps.
