O.K. so I have a problem with installing Windows XP SP2 OEM (downloaded version) on Boot Camp.

I have gone thru the processes until I have to load the Boot cd from the tray, That's when I put in the cd-r with ONLY an iso file in it. It doesn't work :Shouting: :Grimmace:
I really don't have any idea HOW I should burn the cd, so please, please tell me EVERYTHING on how to create a bootable cd for boot camp.

I have already used three cd's Trying to make the layout different.:Oops:
I have a unibody-MB and a "time-machine" backup, the latest Leopard 10.5.8 and I do have a PC at home if necessaryO:)

Thankz!:D
