[QUOTE="HappyHippy, post: 709629, member: 64255"] When I got my MBP I installed XP under Bootcamp and later installed Parallels. All was well. I later made the mistake of installing VMWare while Parallels was running (d'oh!) and so I wiped the partition and started again. Installed XP under Bootcamp and then used VMWare and installed VMWare Tools. I've not been able to get the graphics support in Bootcamp (although I use it rarely) and get the yellow question mark for the video, wifi, bluetooth, isight and other devices. I've removed VMWare Tools, used the MBP Install disc to remove and reinstall the drivers and tried running the graphics installers individually. No joy. Any ideas? I really don't want to do another install if I can avoid it but not having the 3d graphics is getting to be a real pain (I only use Bootcamp for games on occasion). All seems well in VMWare... TIA [/QUOTE]
