How well did BootCamp Assistant go when you created the 100GB-ish partition for Windows?

I was surprised when BCA did an auto reboot all on its own during the process of setup and install - never saw or had that happen before. Seems like it did and doesn't like what it sees.

Try BCA again, removing the Windows NTFS partition.

You downloaded Windows 10 ISO and BCA sees it as a valid image?

Bca goes all fine, and i tried 4-5 times removing the ntfs partition and again started bca, but same results, windows 10 i have downloaded and installed on many desktop pc without any problem, and that iso is detected by bca automatically

Assuming ISO is good and this is on USB installer, I would be suspecting USB key problem.

Use another USB key to create the installer and try again?
