    I used Boot Camp to make a partition to install Windows Vista Home Premium on, but when i try and install it, it says I need to format the partition to NTFS.
    I just want to know how to do this.

    Cheers

    when you run the vista installer, let Vista do the reformat itself. just make sure you pick the right partition-- don't want your OS X partition reformatted.
