[QUOTE="maanitrules, post: 614935, member: 50931"] So i am not too experienced with the Mac OS X and i finally got around to installing leopard on my system... now i wanted to try the dual boot using boot camp and see if I can get windows on there as well, so I can get some of the programs needed to run on there... Anyway... so i started the boot camp assistant thing.. and it set up my hard drive to make the separate partition.. and then it told me to put a xp pro SP2 cd.. so i put the xp pro corp sp2 CD and the screen turned white... i guess it did a reboot.. and then the cd i put in popped out :( it said no boot disc found... (i know the xp cd works coz i just did a clean install on a windows laptop this week and everything worked fine) i had a couple of questions... first... how do i fix this problem and successfully install windows? second.. if it doesnt work... im stuck at the no boot disc found, insert correct disc and press any key to continue screen... how do i just skip past that and go into my leopard install and forget about everything else.. i just want to access all my stuff..:'(:'( :Shouting::Shouting::Shouting: [/QUOTE]
