Boot Camp Issues

OK, i tried to install Boot Camp, and failed several times. First, I
tried to partition the second internal drive on my machine. That
failed with a 'could not move some files' error.
So, I cleared that drive of all files and tried again. This time the
partition worked, but when I rebooted off the windows disc, it would
not install because it had to 'write startup files to the disk' and
the disk was not the startup disk.
Fine, I rebooted back, removed the Boot Camp partition, and tried to
partition the boot drive. That failed, again because some files could
not be moved (??).
OK, fin. Trouble is that now, whenever the machine restarts, like for
the recent QT update, I get a black screen with a 'no startup disk
found' error. I have to boot to the boot menu (which only shows one
option) and then continue on to OS X.
So, my thinking is that something in the EFI is set to try to do a
boot to a windows CD, but I can't seem to fix it.
