Ok so i finally got hold of a copy of windows xp with sp2 and installed windows. everything seemed to be fine, it installed i went through the language settings and network settings etc etc went away and left it but came back to a blank black screen of nothing.. i thought that was a little strange and ended up restarting.
on restart it went into windows fine with no problems. however when i turn off and turn back on again and press the apple key to get into mac osx... it get the black screen back again of nothing.
so 1stly am i going about getting into OSX the right way? As i understand it you jsut hold down the apple key as soon as you press the on button and it will boot into osx?
also how do i update my grpahics driver etc? i tried putting in my mac osx CD but that did nothing
thanks
