[QUOTE="akhpanda, post: 918823, member: 124762"] [b]had the same windows xp pro install trouble[/b] I'm no computer expert, and am a new mac user as well. The exact same thing happened to me where I began xp pro installation through bootcamp and when it got to 33 remaining, it just never progressed after that. I'm pretty sure you have tried this, but after about 2 hours, I just held down the power button for 5 seconds to turn it off. Then I powered back on and it seemed to pick up a little before it left off saying it would be complete in 39 minutes. It's down to 3 minutes remaining and I'm crossing my fingers. I hope you are able to figure it out because I didn't find much in searching forums on this problem either. [/QUOTE]
