[QUOTE="hahahahe1987, post: 656330, member: 56075"] hey guys please help me out i've been looking/trying different things for hours but still to no previal. here is my situation: i need to reinstall my windows on my mac with boot camp because it's got a deadly virus that i could not get rid of ... so this is what i did.... on windows, i inserted my windows xp disc into my drive, clicked on startup disc and selected the windows xp disc to boot. when the system restarts itself, i got a black screen telling me to 'press any key to boot from disc'. i thought i was okay until i pressed a key but instead of booting up with the disc, it skips it and starts windows up. anyone know what the problem may be? could the problem be my out-of-date firmware on my mac which omits the system to boot from a disc? much appreciated for reading thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
