How do I "get Windows" to install with Boot Camp

I never, ever thought I would have to utilize Windows ever again, but the real estate industry is so outrageously hostile to the Mac platform, most or all of the industry software and websites ONLY run with IE on Windows. So I'm f'ed. But I don't know much about Windows. What is the latest version? I heard Vista is really crap? Is XP better? My man question though is:
According to the Apple site, all I need to do is "get Windows" and install it through Boot Camp. On the Microsoft site under "Buy", they funnel you straight into buying a whole PC in order to get Windows. I can't find anything about just buying a copy of the OS.
Would appreciate some basic clarification on getting started with this subject...
Thanks!

Hi Christopher,
first for clearance: your signature states a G5 dual 2GHz. Is this still correct ?
Because BootCamp only works on Intel-Macs not on PPC-Macs like yours !!
Bootcamp itself is merely a helper application which sets the Mac up so that Windows can be installed.
For a Windows installation you have to have/buy a Windows XP Home or XP Pro with Service Pack (SP) 2 or 3 or a Windows Vista Home / Business or Ultimate.
These can be found at Amazon or Newegg for example.
You can not use so-called Upgrade-discs and manufacturere-branded OEm-disc (from Dell, Hp or the like).
You can use so-called System-Builder discs.
Personally for your use XP would be my first choice, since Vista is for my a 'Nice Try' but not more.
If you can wait a little bit, the I would propose to get Windows 7 which should be out later this year, since it's the Vista that Vista has never been.
Apart from BootCamp there are Virtualization applications like Parallels, VMWare Fusion and VirtualBox which would better suit your needs, since they allow you to run Windows while still be in OSX, whereas with Bootcamp you have to restart your Mac in order to run Windows.
http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/
http://www.virtualbox.org/
For these you also have to have/buy a Windows license/CD.
Hope this helps.

Cant get widgets to install

After downloading a shed load of widgets (radio players, chord finders etc) I cant get them to install on the dashboard after unpacking/unzipping them. I have OSX 10.4.7. so it should be fine in terms of OS but I have been told that as a PowerPC chip user, some may not work. However i've downloaded some from mid 2005 but still to no avail.
Any suggestions?

Hi Ben, usually they are .zip files. Just doubleclick to open and then drag the Widget to ~(yourHome)/Library/Widgets. If you have no "Widgets" folder in that location, create one.

Help.i cant get itunes to install

i have been trying to install itunes and i keep getting error code 2738 come up when it is installing.i have tried doing what others have said but it still will not install.what can i do please.i have a new iphone and cant get it to work without itunes installed.thanks x

When you say that you have tried what others have said, it doesn't help the person trying to help you. You need to say what you have tried, this saves time and avoids you being told to do something you have already tried.
I haven't encountered this error number before, but according to the Microsoft list of installer errors is means:
"Could not access VBScript run time for custom action"
It's just a guess, but the following might help.
Type cmd into your search box, cmd should come up under programs. Run it with "Run as Administrator".
Paste in the following line:
regsvr32 scrrun.dll
If that doesn't work, try the following:
regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Help Mac-brothers: can't get Windows to install

Thanks for reading. No matter how I try, I just can't get Windows (either Vista or XP Pro) installed on my Macpro! I made a partition with Bootcamp, started the installationprocess, on asking where to put Windows I selected the Bootcamp-partition and reformatted it. No matter what I do, it keeps telling me that it can't install Windows becouse it does not see a suitable sytem volume. what am I doing wrong? It drives me mad. Any help is welcome. Thank in advance!

Vista x64 doesn't like the NTFS partition BootCamp creates, so you have to delete and format, then reboot off the Vista DVD again.
And sometimes it only works if OS X is nowhere to be found (removed).
I always put Windows Vista on its own hard drive. And pull my OS X drive.
Having four drive bays, very easy.
Never tried with Pro. And in fact, I only 'tested' BootCamp Assistant once or twice. I just format a drive as FAT and then let Vista format it. BCA isn't necessary, and you can install the Apple drivers later when Windows is fully installed, patched, updated, and running fine.

Cant get itunes to install properly on windows 7

I upgraded to Windows 7 from vista. I did a new fresh install starting with a new hard drive. The install went fine until I went to install Itunes. Downloaded the latest Itunes and started the install. A good way into the install during the part of the installation when the status screen states "Publising Product Information", I'm getting the following error message:
"An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKeyToken='1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorarchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x800736FD."
Following this message, the installer reverses the installation process and after a 10-15 minute wait, a screen comes up that says the Itunes installation was complete. Obviously it wasn't but that is what the message says. When you close out of that message, Itunes tries to start and this message pops up:
"Apple Application Support was not found.
Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall itunes, then install iTunes again.
Error 2"
I have uninstalled and retried the installation process multiple times with the exact same result. I have downloaded the installation file from the iTunes website 3 different times and retried each one to make sure that I didn't have a problem with the installation file.

*Replying to greentara*

HRESULT:0x800736FD."
There seem to be a few different versions of that one going round. So, I'm starting with some questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits and treatments.
(1) Which variety of Windows 7 do you have installed? (For example, Home Premium or Ultimate?) Is it 32-bit or 64-bit?
(2) Head into your Windows Update. Are you currently able to download and install updates? If not, check your Update History. Doubleclick on the failed updates. What error codes are being cited for the failed updates?
(3) Do you currently have the Microsoft C++ runtime installed on the PC? If so, which version? 2005 or 2008?

New to bootcamp and cant get it to install windows 7

Hello bootcamp gurus,
I have a iMac 3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo running Mac OS 10.6.6 and it came installed with Boot Camp Assistant 3.0.1 (313). I purchased Windows 7 Profession download. I have downloaded it and burned the 3 files on to a DVD. The files are entitled "Win7-P-Retail-en-us-X64.exe", "setup1.box" and "setup2.box". I followed the instructions in Boot Camp Assistant and noticed that Windows 7 doesn't appear included. I tried to find an update to Boot Camp but everything is an .exe file. I'm very confused.
In any case when it goes to the windows side it says it can't find a bootable disc.
Can any of you give me some pointers to get this installed?
Thanks you so much for your time.

You can load the ISO into VirtualBox and burn from there.
If you use Disk Utitity to burn an ISO you need to set it to 2x and use slow reduced burn speed or it won't work properly.
You purchase was thru school I assume, and those are intended as upgrade I thought but Windows 7 Pro (and either 32-bit or 64-bit).
There should have been a $15 extra offer to have it on physical media DVD also.

I have Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) installed
Okay. There's a security update available for that which has helped a couple of people with a different (installation) iTunes problem, so I think it might be worth trying downloading and installing that:
[Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update|http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=766a6af7-ec73-4 0ff-b072-9112bab119c2&displaylang=en#filelist]
Is that of any help with the iTunes errors?

Windows cannot install on Raid SSD's "Ensure disk controller is enabled....

I have two SSD's. I change the Sata Mode from AHCI mode to Raid Mode. I then created the Raid with both SSD's and created Raid 0. I loaded Windows 7 64 from bootable USB. I then installed the Sata Raid controller from another USB. It then shows the Partition in the Windows install but tells me this:
"Windows cannot be installed on this disk. The computer hardware may not support booting from this disk. Please ensure that the disk controller is enabled in the computer BIOS menu."
If there is something i need to do in BIOS please walk me through the screens to get there. Thank you
EDIT: Fixed.
I flashed my Bios to most recent update and Raid setup went fine and now installing windows. Lesson learned.

Hi
Im clad you get it working.
When installing os to raid those disk has to allso support raid. In my case of samsung 840 nonpro i was lucky and that support come via fw update.

I cant get itunes to install. HELP!

WHenever I try to install itunes 7 it gets stuck on the screen saying "valitading install" THen after about 5-10 min an error message 1905 pops up and says "unable to unregister" or something along those lines.
Do I needs to get rid of itunes 4(which is currently on my comp) to upgrade to 7? How would I do this and would I lose all my music?
----OR-----
The reason I am even bothering to upgrade is because I bought the new nano as a gift and would like to put music on it before I give it. My itunes4 doesnt seem to recognize it and it never shows up when I plug it in? If you could tell me how to get around this problem I wouldnt need to upgrade.
If anyone can help me I would really appreciate your time.

You have posted in the iTunes for Mac forums. You will likely get a faster response by posting in the iTunes for Windows forums.
