I'm using a 128GB SanDisk Cruzer USB 2.0 Flash Drive. When I try to run bootcamp assistant, it tells me that an error occurred while trying to format the disk device. I'm running Catalina on it and it's basically a brand new computer with not much on it. Some important specs, my 3TB HDD recently failed and I switched it out for a 2TB Evo Samsung SSD. I'm trying to install Windows 10 on my imac 27 inch late 2013. What if I format the USB to MS-DOS, copy the ISO content onto it (without windows support tools), then will bootcamp find the installer?Ĭan't think of other possible workarounds, please help.īootcamp assistant not formatting usb Hi everyone, Could it be that ExFAT is the problem? should I try MS-DOS?

Some guide to manually, and safely partition my current HDD without BootCamp? Some virtual optical media that will mount the ISO and present it as an actual CD/DVD to bootcamp? However, I do not have any CD/DVDs at hand, so what are my options to make this work properly? I realised that BootCamp is expecting the installer to be only on an optical media such-as CD/DVD. Tried again to find the installer via BootCamp, but it keeps failing. I copied the contents of the ISO image into the USB stick via Terminal. Using BootCamp, I downloaded and saved the files onto the USB stick.īootCamp fails to find the Win7 ISO image However, I never reach step 5, as I get an error such as: 'the installer could not be found'.įormatted my 32GB USB stick via Disk Utility to ExFAT
