fmwqpofnöewö Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I am a new mac user. I heard about dividing the hard drive to mac/windows. I searched the applications and found Boot Camp in the Utilities folder. I thought that i had the option of already instaling windows on the mac by boot camp (i thought the option was built in so no disk was necessary), but then after i instaled boot camp as an external drive with no OS runing it, i relized i needed the windows disk. So i have instaled Boot camp (which is now useless) with no instalation CD for windows, and its just wasting a fourth of my disk space for nothing (20 GB+). So how do i uninstall boot camp in this situation and get my disk space back? (dont forget that i cant get into the boot camp software or chose which one the mac should run with(boot camp or mac os x)). I tried to go to boot camp> restore to mac os x. it did not work. i need help. How do i uninstall it in this situation???

Did you seriously think that Apple would provide every singe user a free MS Windows license and installation disk (not to mention the fact that there are several different types, ie. Vista, XP, etc)?
