Installing Windows Pro Sp2 on MacBook Pro purchased today (July 7) with all OSX updates installed before beginning.
I got to the windows setup screen, it finished collecting information, performing the dynamic update, preparing installation, and installing windows. Right as it begins to remove temporary files the screen goes blank and the system reboots. The screen stays white, then I get a black screen with the cursor just blinking in the lefthand corner.
When I restart bootcamp, run recover windows, it goes all the way through the installation again and dies right as it deletes the temporary files.
If I reboot directly from the disk it give me the same behavior.
I'm returning this thing if I can't get windows xp pro sp2 on a separate partition.
Thanks,
Mary
