Yeah true but in the help manual of bootcamp it says you should be able to see 
the files and copy them to windows and get n to mac and copy them back which I 
can do.

I can dopy my files from mac easily for free to windows using 2 tools I have in 
my arsenal but the help manual says to update bootcamp if I cannot see the 
partition and I can't update book camp as ms gives me an invalid signature and 
closes with a critical error.

Take Care.
