[QUOTE="chscag, post: 761540, member: 46727"] Can you get back into the Mac operating system - OS X? (Restart the machine and hold down the Option Key, select OS X.) If you can get back into OS X, just use the CD\DVD eject key to remove the XP disk. When in OS X, go to Utilities, and select Disk Utility. What are you showing for partitions? RE your XP disk: What kind is it? Only a boxed MS copy of XP SP2 full install or a system builders XP SP2 full install disk will work with Boot Camp. You can not use a recovery disk or a branded OEM disk - they won't work and usually will cause the symptom you described. Regards. [/QUOTE]
