Subject: Re: Bootcamping with windows xp
How very strange! I acquired a MacBook about two weeks ago, and, just this
past Saturday, installed Windows XP Pro using bootcamp. I've had no problems
getting it to work properly.

Same experience here with a 13inch macbook white that I bought in February
2009, at that time they came with leopard pre-installed and I had xp pro
on it using bootcamp. Sadly I was shocked after upgrading to the latest os
available now and trying to reinstall same xp pro having removed it a year
ago it refused to reboot just copied the installation files, bootcamp
speaks about windows7 now.

Hi,
Just wanting to give everyone a heads up, that the new iMacs will not
bootcamp with xp. I have tried, and it refused to do it. An article that
has
been posted yesterday suggests that mid 2011 iMacs stopped supporting xp,
and I do wish I knew that before attempting...
I've tried putting in in VM ware, but it is flaky, unstable, and taking
control of the keyboard is iffy at best.
Quite disappointed, and it does look like I might have to bite the bulet
and
do windows7
Just thought you'd be interested in this.
Cheers
Naama, who wishes she could broadcast natively from the mac, so that I
don't
need windows at all
