    When I try to install windows onto my MacBook, I have clicked inside the blue install screen and then ress the fn key and the F8 key to accept the agreement and all I get is a grey screen with what looks like are two gears. I am unable to even install my Windows X

    Hold down your "fn" key then hit F8 and it will register the key stroke.

    Sorry highjacking an old thread but I cannot see how to start a new one... Windows XP install is crashing on device installation...
    Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6 with Parallels 14.1.3 (45485) on MacBook Pro 2011 (1TB SDD and 16GB RAM). I have a full retail version of Windows XP retail...
    Attached is a screen shot of the place I'm getting stuck, any help would be much appreciated.
