I would like to run Windows XP on my 2008 Black MacBook (2.4GHZ Core 2 Duo, 2GB RAM, 250GB HDD, Mac OS 10.6.8 Snow Leopard) because I have a bunch of old computer games that were only released for Windows XP (no Mac versions, and they won't work on anything above XP), but when I went into BootCamp it came up with the whole "Bootcamp is for installing Windows on Intel Based Macs" blah blah blah, so I hit "Continue" then it said it needs to install Windows Support Software so I can use the keyboard, mouse, and webcam on the Windows Partition, and it had two options:
1) Download the Windows support software for this Mac
or 2) I have the Mac OS X Installation Disk that came with my Mac or I have already downloaded the Windows support software for this Mac to a CD, DVD, or external disk
I don't have any of the disks for my Mac because I got it used on eBay with only the laptop and charger. So I used the first option and it said it was downloading for a really long time, then it said "Could not continue. Windows support software is not available."
What do I do? Is there something in settings I can change to fix this? Is there an external link or somewhere I can download the support software myself? Would there be support software on Apple's website? Can someone please help or direct me to a place to find support software for my MacBook? Thanks in advance!
