[QUOTE="racerxnyc, post: 692813, member: 61306"] When I try to launch WinXP from BootCamp it immediately goes to a blue screen where it says > A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent > damage to your computer. > > SESSION5_INITIALIZATION_FAILED > > If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart > your computer.

Any Ideas? [/QUOTE]
