Hello!

For some reason, when i bootcamp with Windows 8, it works fine until i get to the bit where you have to click "Drive options (advanced)." and then you have to Click Format, then click ok, then click Next. For some reason, i do that, and the Next button doesn't let me click it, it is still greyed out for some reason, even though i have done what it said. Please help me ASAP!

Kind Regards,

Alex
 
I thought I had that problem the other day....turns out it just needed a windows minute to figure it out. Took the dog out, came back and it was available.
 
Are you on OS X 10.8.3? Been through this article?

I am doing that, but for some reason, its not formatting the partition when you go on 'Drive options (advanced)' and then you click format, but the Next button still doesn't allow you to click on it. This is when its on the installation bit of Windows 8, where you have to select the partition called BOOTCAMP.
