[QUOTE="greenitude, post: 763228, member: 75839"] I'm trying to install Windows XP on my Macbook using Boot Camp. Everything seemed fine until I try to load windows from System Preferences > Startup disk and then reboot. When it restarts, it gives me "disk error, press any key to continue" on a black screen except nothing happens when I press any keys. I had to hold down the power button to shut it off. Anybody has any idea what's wrong? Also, I was never prompted to put in the OS X installation disc at any point, even though they said to put it in after the windows installation...At which point was I supposed to do this? [/QUOTE]
