No go with that either.

eee if this helps http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_do_i_install_windows_xp_on_my_mac_using_boot_camp_1.html

My guess is you forgot to burn a mac drivers cd joseph from that article.

He said he ran the assistant so he must have burnt the drivers

I am grasping Amy as the assistant did not seem to do the job or he would not be asking for help.

He probably didn't read the long thingy. I burned the drivers but never needed them

I found a junky windows box in the alley. Guess what it had on it? An XP serial. No harddrive and they cut all the cables and smashed the mobo. But I did peel the serial off. I'm gonna take one for Joseph and try to recreate his problem in a little while.

I thought that was the issue until I actually read the instructions. You install the drivers after Windows is installed from what I am reading.

Thanks!

Printing out the boot camp assistant info right now. Gonna look for the xp disk I have now

Ok don't know if this serial is going to work but thats ok. Windows gives you 30 days so it'll still work. I'm installing now. I did notice in the print out that if you are using an Apple Mighty mouse, the windows Installer may not respond if the mouse is connected directly to the computer. To fix this connect the Mighty Mouse to the USB port on your keyboard

Ok I didn't encouter the hang up yet it's still installing. Its copying files

It rebooted and I was able to use the keyboard to push any key

Ok this is strange it didn't install so I'm running it again

Having the same problem you are Joseph

Just deleted the partition and am trying again

Deleted the partition and set up has about 25 minutes left

Tick, tick, tick

Amy, I figured out what the problem was. Let Setup reformat the partition. When Boot Camp does it, that was giving me the disk error.

By the way... I am posting this via XP. The drivers installed and the aluminum keyboard and the Mighty Mouse now works.

It's weird, though, that I am allowed onto our network without being asked to log-in and without being quarantined until I install Norton and Cisco's CleanAccess Agent. All Windows machines have to do that to be given unrestricted access to the network.
