No bootable device message. Can't do anything. On my mac mini late 2012 running macos Catalina, I downloaded windows 11 iso for boot camp, because it said it could run windows 10 or later and once it finished, it automatically booted into it, but the windows 11 installation said my mac couldnt run it, so i exitted it and turned off the mac. Now whenever I turn it on, it shows a black screen, my keyboard flashes off and on after like 30 seconds a random part of the screen flickers and says "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key" Any keyboard combination results in the same thing. I've tried putting both windows 10 installation media and windows 11 installation media in a USB and into it but it still shows it. Also I'm using a windows kind of keyboard, not an apple one, so there's a windows key and an alt key.

cannot install windows, boot camp keeps failing I always have this issue with boot camp, I went thought support before and we tried everything ending up having to use Terminal to create install windows. I always get this error that the partition could not be created within boot camp and to use disk utility to check the disk. Disk utility just says everything is ok. But it does say that one of the images ccould not be checked there is some sort of error. I have a pretty old macbook from 2013, but I DID have boot camp working and windows installed at one point. I just want to be able to get my head around this and get it installed myself. Anyway have any idea how I can do that? Seems I have to go around boot camp and use terminal to do so, always get this disk error. Have no idea why. Here is what disk utility says: Running First Aid on “Container disk1” NOTE: First Aid will temporarily lock the startup volume. Verifying storage system Using live mode.
