KHIT Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 The problem is that I've only got 1 HDD, with three partitions. SYSTEM(NTFS), OS(NTFS) and Macintosh HD(Mac OS Extended Journaled) Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/244416-active-disk-changes/#findComment-1626818 Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymousthing Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Boot into Windows, download EasyBCD from <a href="http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1">here</a>. (Download link is down the bottom) Once installed, open it up, then go to "Add new entry" on the left-hand-side pane. Go to the Mac tab, name it whatever you want (Generally Mac OS X), select EFI, then click Add Entry. Reboot to check if it works.

KHIT Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Thanks for the reply, I'll try to get it working today, but my system doesn't boot on the OS partition, but on the SYSTEM partition. Also everytime the computer boots up, right after the HP logo it shows boot0:done and then it boots into windows. could it be possible that my previous fails of installing OSX with chameleon, has left a little bit of chameleon on my SYSTEM partition.
