Hey I was running XP through bootcamp on my macbook for a couple weeks, and I partitioned my hard drive to make a time machine partition, and ever since then I haven't been able to run XP.
When I start it up, it shows the black screen with grey words and safe mode, last goor configuration, start up normally, etc. Whenever I choose any of these, it just restarts the computer. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Sorry to hear that - bootcamp really is sensitive to any changes made to the disk partitions, which is why so many people stay away from it.

Just one oter thing. Using the same physical disk for timemachine, as your data content, is a bit of a waste of time. The whole idea is to store your data on a different physical disk.
