Good morning and merry christmas.
Does the mac have a utility that will partition the hard drives? I understand windows XP needs to be on a differemt drive.
Thanks,
Al

Boot Camp is a utility set up specifically for helping you run Windows on your Mac. It comes standard with Leopard.

To partition the hard drive you can use

Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.

But if you are installing windows on a partition, boot camp does this for you without erasing your existing OS X installation

Click to expand...

Even disk utility can do it without erasing the OS X data.
