Boot Camp is a wizard that prepares your Mac for installing Windows on it. Since Mac hardware and PC hardware are essentially the same these days, all Boot Camp does is make it easier to install Windows to dual-boot with Mac OS X.

So, yes, you still have to install Windows. Boot Camp just helps you to do so.

Download Bootcamp off the Apple site > run it > burn drivers onto a blank CD > partition hard drive > insert Windows CD > restart > Windows installs > put in driver CD you burned and run it.

Then just hold down alt when you start up if you want to boot into Windows.
