10.5.3 Bootcamp not working properly, can't install OS's

Question

Hello,
I can't seem to install any operating systems. It's seems to be a partition map type problem. I've used the bootcamp assistant before without a problem. I am trying to install XP Pro SP2 (Original CD) onto a drive in Bay 2 (I also tried another drive in Bay 3) but get stuck when I choose the drive to format at the XP install screen. It's says it cannot install the OS on this drive, to try another or to try formatting. Same problem with vista. Bootcamp does not seem to be preparing the drive properly like it used to. Besides bootcamp I also tried formatting the drive myself in disk utility (with GUID and MBR partition schemes) and selecting the install CD at boot but I get stuck at the same spot. What is going on? Why do the installers think that the drive is not formatted properly? I have tried 2 drives in 2 different bays. I tried doing a dedicated install on the drive and also divining the drive but no luck. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hello again V.K,
I'm taking the computer to assistance as suggested. Even tho I'm almost 100% sure that this isn't a hardware issue.
Here is why I'm not wasting my time on my affirmative. I'm computer science bacharelor, I know about computer architeture and S.O architeture and also I'm computer developer for more than 10 years now. All behaviors presented have no connection with hardware problems. What I'm trying to say is that I'm not just saying things for saying, I have a logic behind what I say.
For a short example, whenever mouse right click stops working on a specific window/software, if I click on the window top border and drag it around and go back to the window content, the click works again.
Also, my keyboard and mouse work via usb. Usb is working normally. If I plug a usb memory stick it shows that usb is working as it should be.
On windows, right button click is also not working inside any software window, but if I click on start button, icons on desktop, anything on windows epxlorer, it works as it should be. Isnt't there bootcamp underneath windows ?
on top of it, it's a brand new mac, i have it for 5 months.
All these people that have the same problem, do u think all of them have hardware issues? Do you think Apple would keep releasing new computers with hardware problems and they wont have any information/recall for them? and worst, the problems start in a random date ?
This is my first mac and all these problems, being hardware or not, makes me lose all confidence on Apple products.
Davi.
