[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1648512, member: 46727"] Welcome to the Mac Forums. Which Mac Mini do you have? If it's a new one (not used and new to you), you will not be able to install XP using the Boot Camp assistant. A new Mac Mini will only be able to run Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. We need to know specifics: Year and model of your Mac Mini and which version of OS X it's running? Also, when you restart the Mini do not hold down the Option key. Let it boot normally and tell us what happens. I suggest doing a [URL="https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063"]NVRAM reset[/URL] first before restarting. [/QUOTE]
