    I used Camptune X to resize a Partition on my mac. The process appeared to be going smoothly until I attempted to boot into Windows. Once I selected Windows, I received an error that stated, "ERROR 15; FILE NOT FOUND." Then there was some mention of using "GRUB," or something along those lines. Help! Thanks in advance.

    EDIT: After attempting to boot into Windows again, and receiving the error again, I pressed a key to get to a menu that included about 8 different options. Some of the options kept referring to an SLIC, and the last option was to boot in a default "GRUB" mode.

    Attempt using the Mac installation disk and attempt to repair the bootcamp partition using the disk utility.

    Did not work. I followed the directions correctly when installing and using the program. Not understanding what the error is. I sent in the error report, but no real response?

    exactly my problem. unfortunately i have a mac mini with a broken dvd drive, so if i cant find a solution my whole bootcamp and therefore steam games is never coming back, as i cant reinstall it.

    disc utility runs on the mac partition and finds nothing wrong. when i click on the bootcamp partition both repair and verify are greyed out.
