hey i have the same problem too! urm just 'tick' the box that says automatic update time or something like that.

i am experiencing the same problem too. after you have ticked that box, it will automatically change to the correct time, but i think this only works if your computer is connected to the internet.

i did went to machines and asked them what cud the problem be, but none of them knew how to solve this issue unfortunately.

Hey guys,

I recently purchased the Windows 7 Ultimate for my mbp (currently running on 10.6.8). Tried installing the windows using bootcamp assistant. After pressing 'Start Installation', the computer restarts and a black screen comes out stating "No bootable device. Please insert disc and press any key".

I tried selecting the installation disc as the startup disc but the mbp doesnt seem to identify the disc during start up. Any advice or instructions on how to install windows on my mbp would be much appreciated.

p/s: Sorry mod if this topic has been made before. Relocation of this topic to appropriate thread would be fine. Cheers! notworthy.gif
