Hi everyone,
I'm attempting to install windows xp on my macbook pro and put the CD in and right before the windows setup after it reboot, I realized I wanted to make my windows partition larger. Problem is whenever the macbook reboots, it always loads the windows CD and when I refuse to install xp it reboots my computer once again, repeating the cycle. I was wondering if there was a sure-fire way to remove the cd before windows starts or to start os x before the cd boots. I tried holding ctrl to boot from os x..i tried holding x to force a mac boot and those methods don't work.
If possible, I might just install windows now with the small partition and uninstall , make a larger partition then install again. Is there even any way to increase the partitions size after i install xp? Thanks
