Bootcamp Assistant Issues on 3TB 2013 iMac

Click for full size
I just got a new iMac w/ the Fusion Drive so here I am trying to create a partition and install Windows. It is a x64, because I also tried it on VMWare and by default Vmware recognized it.

First Flash Drive I have Win7 burned on it
Second Flash Drive I want to use for the files it needs

Unrelated to your question, but i was under the impression you couldn't use bootcamp with Fusion Drives.

Thx
Looks like its a known issue as well
Did a google search for the same error message and got a few hits like this one »forums.macrumors.com/sho ··· =1561855

It seems Win7 doesn't work on Late 2013 iMac I tried superdrive iso and usb iso, but none of my bluetooth keyb/mouse or usb connected keyb/mouse is working at the Install Windows screen.

If anyone else has encountered please chime in
