Error 2229 Boot Camp Installation

Hi everyone,
I've the problem that I get the Windows Installer Error 2229 when I want to install the new Bootcamp Drivers 3.0 on Windows 7. I've upgraded my Windows Vista (on the same Mac) with installed Bootcamp 2.2-Drivers to Windows 7 and now I would like to install the new drivers, but it doesn't work!
Could anyone can help me? Thanks in advance!

I've left it for about an hour and it comes up with this message:
An error has been encountered that prevents Setup from continuing.
Setup failed to install the product catalogs. This is a fatal error. The setup log files should contain more information.
Press OK to view the Setup log file.
I press OK and I get this...
Error:
THe signature for Windows XP Professional Setup is invalid. The error code is 80096001.
A system-level error occurred while verifying trust.
THE problem is, I've SUCCESSFULLY managed to install XP with this CD on my MacBook. So whats going on?

BootCamp 5.0 error on 13" MacBook Pro Mid-2010: "Installation Error. Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model"

Installing Boot Camp 5.0.5033 (downloadable at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638) on Windows 8 x64 on 13” MacBook Pro Mid-2010 using BootCamp\setup.exe, I get the following message: “Installation Error. Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model”.
According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634, Windows 8 x64 is not supported by Boot Camp 5 on 13” MacBook Pro Mid-2010 .
Previous version, Boot Camp 4.0, causes bluescreens on Windows 8 (https://discussions.apple.com/message/20131524#20131524).
Fortunately, it might be still possible to employ updated Boot Camp by launching “msiexec /i BootCamp.msi” from BootCamp\Drivers\Apple folder using administrative command prompt (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc947813%28v=WS.10%29.aspx).
However, new Boot Camp 5.0.5033 does not contain all the drivers for 13” MacBook Pro Mid-2010. E.g. driver for NVIDIA nForce System Management Controller (labeled Other devices/Coprocessor in Control Panel) and NVIDIA nForce PCI Systems Management (labeled Other devices/SM Bus Controller in Control Panel) must be obtained at Drivers\NVidia\NVidiaChipset64 in older Boot Camp 4.0 (downloadable at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1634)
According to Microsoft (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/system-requirements), the MacBook Pro config (Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM) exceeds Windows 8 x64 hardware requirements. Windows Experience Index for this laptop is approx. 5.1 (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/what-windows-experience-index).
Does anybody know, is there any technical reason why Windows 8 x64 is not supported by Boot Camp 5 on 13” MBP Mid-2010?
Is there a specific hardware/firmware deficiency in this MacBook model, incompatible with Win8? Maybe NVIDIA refused to provide Win8-compatible drivers for its chipset components (GeForce 320M graphics card though is still supported by latest notebook drivers available at www.geforce.com)?

Thanks for the detailed explanation! If MacBook supports AHCI/SATA only in native “UEFI mode”, while reverting back to PATA/IDE in legacy “BIOS mode”, then it could make perfect sense to use UEFI to make sure that technology like Native Command Queuing (NCQ) is employed, as it may give noticeable performance improvements for certain operations: www.happysysadm.com/2012/12/intel-g530-nas-performance-part-3.html. I wonder how do you get Windows 8 x64 with EFI bootloader installed on MacBook?
Simply choosing EFI Boot (“Some EFI platforms support both UEFI and BIOS firmware. On some of those systems, it is not always clear if the default DVD boot option is an EFI or BIOS boot option. On these systems, using the EFI shell command may be required. If you do not specifically start Windows Setup by using the EFI boot entry, the default firmware boot entry for BIOS may be used. If Windows Setup starts in BIOS mode on a combined EFI/BIOS system, the ESP and MSR partitions are not created.”) from Win8 x64 DVD when installing on blank HDD would yield “The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed" message. Also, if the hard drive was not in SATA mode during Windows installation, registry tweaking may be required before switching from PATA to SATA. Do you do registry tweaking and EFI bootloader configuration manually after a copy of Windows was installed in its dedicated partition in a regular way?

Boot Camp Installation: Definition of, and insights into "External Drives"?

I'm recovering from a logic board failure. One casualty was that I lost my prior Boot Camp installation of Windows on my main internal hard drive. :-( Wondering if I can install Windows anywhere other than the main internal hard drive so I can maximize space on my OSX main internal drive?
From what I've gathered, installing Windows 7 Boot Camp is very difficult (and perhaps impossible?) on an external hard drive. However, what's not entirely clear is what constitutes an "external drive".
Questions:
1. Can I install a bootable installation of Windows 7 using Boot Camp (obviously not running OSX in this scenario) on either the:
A) Data Doubler 7,200 drive
or
B) Express Card 34 SSD drive
2. Can I also install Parallels (on the main internal OSX drive), then while in OSX launch (a much slower) Windows from location A or B?
Context:
1. On a late 2011 MBP 17' (version 8,3), I've replaced the stock hard drive (7,200 rpm) with a much faster OWC SSD Drive. (Awesome upgrade, btw!)
2. The internal apple dvd device was removed and the stock hard drive was inserted in this location using OWC Data Doubler. (Also, very nice.) An extra challenge here is that the dvd drive is now an external device. I have a Windows 7 install disc, but I'm not sure if it will be recognized during the installation process?
3. This model MBP has an ExpressCard 34 slot, for which I can buy an SSD drive. Never used this slot and have read mixed reports on boot ability.
Any and all insights greatly appreciated!

Many thanks for the helpful response, Loner T. I think I've got it. To install Windows through BCA on the Optibay drive, I temporarily move it to the main SATA bay. I can then temporarily put the DVD drive back in the Optibay. So here's a question: In doing this, I would no longer have an OSX boot drive (since I'm temporarily removing my OSX boot SSD). It's been a while since I used BCA, so my memory is fuzzy (sorry), but does the BCA process need a working OSX install on the drive in the SATA bay?
The SSD with OSX boot is normally (for your specific scenario) kept in an external enclosure (USB/FW/TB) to boot from and run BC and partition the disk in the main SATA bay.
You mention that modifying the BC info.plist causes issues. I lost you a little here. Using the method you describe (move the Optibay drive to the SATA location, run BCA to install Windows, then move the drive back to the Optibay location), does the BC info.plist need to be modified or not? If yes, a few more details would be welcomed. If not, what prompted this thought?
If you have a functional Optical drive and the designated Windows-to-be in the proper bays, the BC info.plist modifications are unnecessary, and can cause other grief, and are best avoided.
Thanks also for the bleeptobleep post. It says to use a USB3/Thunderbolt external drive (which I do have); however, my MBP (version 8,3) only has USB2 ports. I realize that a USB2 port will read a USB3 external drive, but was wondering if this limitation is a deal breaker for a bootable Windows system, or if it just means that things will be really, really, tragically slow due to low transfer rates. Any idea on this aspect?
USB3 can cause problems for Windows 7 installer, bot not as many issues for Windows 8+. It is better to stick to USB2, but you are correct it will be slow. OSX can boot and will use RAM much more aggressively, unless it has to go back to the USB (2/3) when things may give you a beach ball. Windows 7/8 are less friendly for caching the whole OS and applications in RAM, and may be slower. A TB connection is much faster (TB2 even better).
BTW: Bummer that the ExpressCard slot can't work for booting into Windows. That would be pretty slick. I've seen some older posts by folks who were once able to do this, but seemingly only with early versions of OSX. Apparently newer OSX versions either did away with this feature, or seriously complicated the process. Would love to find a workaround if one exists.
You can test it, but may have some issues finding storage for ECards.

Help evaluating complex boot camp installation

I need to do a bit tricky boot camp installation, and would appreciate if somebody could evaluate before hands whether the plan outlined below should work, or if i should try some different approach:
Current setup is Tiger with two OS X partitions (16gb root, rest mounted under /Users)
Desired setup is Tiger with two OS X partitions, AND a Windows Vista partition.
Plan is:
- Make disk image of the current (Tiger) root partition, and backup of /Users
- Boot from install DVD, re-partition the internal disk to single partition, restore the disk image to the single partition
- Upgrade to Leopard
- Install Boot Camp and Windows Vista
- Use 'diskutility resizeVolume' to split the Leopard partition to two
- Overwrite the first partition with the original Tiger disk image
- Restore Data to the second partition
How about? Will Boot Camp continue to operate when i overwrite Leopard system with the Tiger disk image, and when i split the single partition to two pieces? Or is there some other recommended way for doing this?
Thanks,
Henri Karapuu

'diskutility resizeVolume' should had naturally been 'disktool'. Also sorry about the layout, for some reason single dashes in front of each line got eaten.

MacBook Pro 13" Late 2011 Experiencing Significant Slow Down After Boot Camp Installation

     Okay, so today, after installing Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro via Bootcamp Assistant, I experienced significant performance slow down (fans going at full blast, applications opening after extended periods of time, keystrokes not being registered) when I returned to my OS X partition/second hard drive. I have dual hard drives, one of them being a Samsung 256 GB SSD with OS X Mavericks and the other being my original 500 GB HDD, divided into a 250 GB OS X Mavericks partition and a 250 GB Windows partition. I have the SSD set as my startup disk and I have it located in the main HDD bay. I moved the old HDD into a caddy and placed it where the optical drive normally should be.
      After multiple failed attempts to install Windows via USB and Bootcamp Assistant, I decided to reinstall my optical drive and use a Windows installation disk. This attempt proved successful, and I was able to install Windows 7 onto the 250 GB partition I had created for it on the 500 GB HDD. After completing basic setup of Windows, I removed the optical disk drive and reinstalled the SSD and the HDD into their original spots (SSD in the main HDD bay, HDD in the caddy where the optical drive normally is).
     After completing this tedious process, I booted my Mac back up using the SSD. However, I noticed something was wrong when the login screen, apps, and nearly everything else on my desktop had slowed to crawl. I decided to check my Activity Monitor to see what the problem might be. Activity Monitor told me that the task "kernel_task" was taking up anywhere from 200-600% of my CPU, which explained the slowdown in performance. I looked around to see if there were others with the same problem as me, and I found that Spotlight Indexing might be an issue, with a potential remedy being move my Bootcamp Partition into the Privacy section of Spotlight under System Preferences. After doing that, I experienced no increase in performance and everything was still going very slowly.
     The next step I took was to see if booting into Safe Mode would help the issue. After booting into Safe Mode on my SSD, I noticed that things were back to their normal speeds, with applications opening at the speed they should be and keystrokes being registered instantaneously. However, the fans were still going and had not shut off once booting into Safe Mode. In addition, I checked Activity Monitor and the "kernel_task" in question was no longer taking up massive amounts of the CPU.
     At this point, I don't know what to do and I need help in restoring my Mac to original speeds. I may end up deleting my Boot Camp partition as a last measure if all else fails, seeing as I installed Windows in the first place for running a few programs and games that I can live without. However, I'd prefer to not have things come to that and fix things before deleting the Boot Camp Partition. I've heard that if everything runs normally in Safe Mode, then the issue is third-party software. Is this true?
     Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am writing this from the MacBook in question in Safe Mode because it's essentially useless in normal SSD operation.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
Paste into the window of another application.
Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Blue Screen error using Boot Camp when installing XP on the MacBook Pro

I have been trying to install Windows XP Professional (with SP2) on my MacBook and I keep encountering blue screen errors during the install. I successfully create the Windows partition with Boot Camp (v2.0) and then Windows install begins. However, during the setup process it hangs and then eventually throws an error showing a blue screen. There has been a different error each time I've tried to install. I've booted in OSX and then deleted the Windows partition through Boot Camp and then attempted the process from the beginning five separate times and each time I get an error during the initial install phase.
Its not a matter of the installation CD because i borrowed 3 differnt copies from some friends and i still have the same issues.
Once, I managed to actually start windows XP however it was full of errors probably as parts of it weren't properly installed due to the the blue screens that made me reboot several times.
Am I the only one having this problem??
Is this a matter of the hardware? Can you think of any possible solution?
(I used NTFS did everything propperly I'm 100% sure)(I tried FAT as well)(still nothing)
PLEASE HELP

Can you read and write from your optical drive? I would have it checked by burning something to it and seeing if it can be read.
I have noted a link, with some information that may be helpful, for you to check out.
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7872477#7872477
I would repair permissions before your next attempt too.
If this fails, I would contact Apple.

Windows corrupts itself, errors installing Boot Camp 2.0 & 2.1

Mac OS 10.5 is working just fine, however upon partitioning and installing Windows XP Pro w/ SP2, I have nothing but problems! Windows update will not work, cannot install Boot Camp 2.1 without errors (says files are corrupted, even though I have re-downloaded the file a dozen or so times). After a short while of rebooting and attempts to install updates, Windows corrupts itself; IE will not open, Windows explorer crashes regularly, and no installation files will open without errors. Safari for windows barely works. I have attempted formatting and reinstalling the system 4 times now, both FAT and NTFS, using different Mac OS X disks for boot camp software, but I get errors every time. It seems I cannot install anything without errors. Also, windows seems to degenerate, each time I boot up the computer windows gets progressively worse, more errors, more problems.
I have checked and all of my EFI and SMC software is up to date.
Everything is working just fine on my Macbook (different computer), which used the same procedure.
Macbook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.33ghz, 3gig RAM, 160HD, X1600, DL-DVDR
Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.4 Windows XP Pro w/ SP2

Solution found: Bad memory module (stick of RAM). After removing the bad stick, windows runs normally, updates are smooth.
Used "Remember" application to confirm memory is bad.

Will contact Applecare regarding bad memory.

Boot Camp installer updates crashing WinXP

Hello
I installed WinXP on my iMac today (2.6Ghz i5 processor, 16GB RAM, 2TB drive, OSX 10.6.8).
After running Windows (all the updates were installed), I tried to update the Boot Camp. My OSX disc installs Boot Camp 3.0 and I Software Updater is not updating it beyond that.
From Windows (Safari browser) I located and downloaded Boot Camp 3.1 and 3.2 from the Apple Downloads area.
However, when I run the 3.1 installer (which needs to be done before 3.2), I get a blue screen and this error msg:
"STOP. c000021a {Fatal System Error}
The windows subsystem process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000005 (0x7c911629 0x00c5ebe0).
The system has been shut down."
I then have to do a hard restart to get back.
I did this several times and got the same result (am I Einstein or what?).
In short I cannot get Boot Camp software updated - and I know that I have to get to 3.2 which has the latest drivers for WinXP 32bit.
Any ideas on what I can try to fix this?
Also - WinXP only recognises 2GB of RAM - when I have 16GB installed ... how can I get Windows to use the full 16GB?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Perhaps some umwanted advice, to one who wants to save $$ be re-using ...
MS probably has disavowed the existence of XP, for all intents and purposes.
If I did load it on a desktop by itself, I would expect 3 days of downloading patches on even the fastest internet line.
Windows 7 has the best "production level" support MS has to offer currently.

Issue with boot camp installation

Hi, i have som problem with installing boot camp. I get an error message in the Windows installation guide that my superdrive are missing the correct drivers. I have tried to eject the Windows disk to insert my Snow Leopard recovery disk, but i cant eject it during the set up.
Any suggestions?

First post so sorry if this is not in the right place but wanted to post this so it might help someone. I have installed boot camp on macbook air and had no issues. We were trying to install Boot Camp on new macbook pro with 10.7.4 and boot camp 4.0.4. We could not get it to burn the windows support files. It would download the windows support files but fail to burn every time with no option to save the file. I forget the exact verbage. After searching all over the web / forums, etc we tried several times and it would fail every time. We finally thought that maybe it was too large of a download to fit on a CD so we tried it with a DVD and BINGO!! I feel stupid but seriously!!!! It couldn't just tell us that the target was not large enough. Just wanted to post for others. Thanks

Can not boot into OSX after boot camp installation and resizing of Macintosh HD

So from the beginning what I was trying to do was set up my iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) with boot camp so that I could play some old windows based games that can not be played in Parallels.
I went through the Boot camp process and everything set up just fine.
I had both OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 and Windows 8 Professional running but as I was installing games on to boot camp I discovered I did not allocate enough space and needed to extend the Boot Camp partition.
I used boot camp utility to set OS X as the default start up disk and had it restart
I launched into OS X and used Disk Utility to shrink Macintosh HD another 120GB
Restarted again holding option and launched into Windows
Used the disk management in windows to try and extend the boot camp partition into the unallocated space.
It was not an option to extend it so I tried to create a new simple volume from the unallocated space then delete it and try to extend it again.
It still was not an option.
From there I went to restart again while holding option and the only options I had were 10.10 Recovery and Windows
I tried using disk utility in recovery and Macintosh hd now only showed disk0s2
I tried to verify and it could not verify
I tried to repair and it could not repair.
I put the iMac in target disk mode and using a thunderbolt cable I tried using disk utility from my MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012)
Verifying volume “disk2s2”Verifying file system.** /dev/rdisk2s2
Invalid BS_jmpBoot in boot block: 000000

File system check exit code is 8.Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required.Error: Disk Utility can’t repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files.
This is the same error I got on my iMac
I used terminal diskutil list and got:
/dev/disk2

   4:       Microsoft Basic Data BOOTCAMP                70.3 GB    disk2s4
I can see that Macintosh HD was disk2s2 but it now shows its Microsoft Basic Data.
I did not format this partition and it was working fine till I restarted the computer after resizing Macintosh HD.
I am not sure what I can do to fix this.
I've found multiple articles about similar issues, but the issue thet they have was that they could not boot to Windows instead of my issue not booting to OS X

****************    Update    *****************
From the Windows Partition using Disk Management I can see that the drive is still labeled Macintosh HD and that all of my data is there.
I have a complete backup so i'm not worried so much about the data.
What I'm most interested in is trying to solve this issue because I'd like to continue using boot camp and I actually work with mac computers and would like to be able to help others if this issue arrises again.

A few questions about Boot Camp: installation, performance, which Win OS?

Hello.
I am planning on getting a windows OS. My main motives for this are because I would like to get some PC only games (I've been eyeing that Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition that is soon to come out) and because there is a good chance that I will need some PC only programs for my college work. I just had a few questions before I did anything. Note: I am running 10.5.8 now but getting 10.6 soon.
1. According to wikipedia: "Its functionality relies on BIOS emulation through EFI and a partition table information synchronization mechanism between GPT and MBR combined". The only word I understood of that sentence was "emulation." I know that emulation software significantly reduces performance. Is this true for boot camp? (say i were to get the exact same game for both mac and windows and set them to the exact same performance settings, when playing on windows, would there be more lag than on OS X?)
2. Which Windows OS should I get? Since I am just going to be using Boot Camp to run games and a few other programs, would XP be the best to get to optimize the application's performance (as opposed to Win 7)?
3. How complex is installation? I am a decent Mac techie, but this is my first time with boot camp, and I am a Windows noobie.
4. There seems to be a lot of talk about partitions. What exactly is a partition? I have some theories, but want to know for sure.

Boot Camp installation knocks out my network connection in OS X?

I've tried doing an installation of Windows XP in Boot Camp on two different occasions, and both times have resulted in the same odd finding: the network settings in OS X are altered or affected and I can no longer get the computer to connect to any network, either wireless or through ethernet. I can't see anything noticeably different in the settings, but nothing seems to be able to get it to connect. The only thing that has saved me has been doing a restore from Time Machine to right before the Boot Camp install. It makes no sense to me what might be happening here and I haven't found other reports of this. Anyone have any ideas?
(If it makes any difference, when I got the new MacBook, I did a migration of a 10.4 system from my PowerBook G4 and sometimes wonder if something weird was inherited from that... but that is just a pure guess in the dark. And since, I've had the WIndows 7 beta and RC running in Parallels and Fusion with no problems. But I'd like the Boot Camp option.)

Free space? 15GB or more free.
chkdsk comes up clean?
cleaned out temp/tmp and cache?
Programs can be repaired right from the control panel "Programs"
Go into Services to check properties and make sure Apple Mobile, Bonjour, iPod etc are all set to running and automatic. I have to restart all of those usually to get my iPod to connect.
Windows 7 DVD to check for system repairs.

"No Bootable Device" after failed Boot Camp installation (Windows 8 - 1TB Fusion Drive)

On my new iMac /w a 1TB Fusion Drive, I tried to install Windows 8 (still technically unsupported) using the following method:
http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/11/no-support-no-problem-inst alling-windows-8-on-a-mac-with-boot-camp/
Everything was proceeding just fine; I had Boot Camp copy all of the Windows 8 files (a legitimate, store-bought copy) to a bootable USB drive - a feature only available on new Macs running Boot Camp Assistant that don't come with an internal optical drive - and create a 102 Gb partition on the Fusion Drive. It then rebooted and was proceeding through the Windows 8 setup wizard as should be expected, but it couldn't modify any of the partitions on the Fusion Drive and wouldn't proceed. I accepted defeat and decided I would just wait until Windows 8 is officially supported before trying again.
Now, every time I turn the computer on, I get an error message saying "No Bootable Device...", unless I hold down the Option key and manually select "Macintosh HD" (the only boot device listed). I already removed the primary Windows 8 partition, but it hasn't fixed the issue.
I'm thinking that it's one of the 'hidden' partitions causing it to behave like this, or something wrong with the EFI bootloader, but I don't know how to proceed. Any thoughts on this?

I actually did try this (forgot to mention it), and it didn't fix the problem.
However, I just resolved it on my own, doing what I probably should have tried before anything else: running "Repair Disk" in Disk Utility updated all of the boot preferences as it should have.

Need to repair boot camp installation on each sleep/reboot

I Have a Mid-2009 Apple Macbook Pro computer with Windows 7 installed on it. I use the Boot Camp drivers version 3.2. These days i have an issue: every time I put the computer to sleep or reboot it, the boot camp drivers go faulty; the special keys stop working, the keyboard baklight stops working and every setting in the boot camp control panel goes to default. The only solution to this is to use the BC 3.0 installer to repair. Any ideas on how this problem might be resolved?

Ok, here was the rundown of my situation, and the solution:
I partitioned the disk through Bootcamp, tried to install Windows, and got to the point where it asks which partition to install on. It showed one with about 130GB, and that was ALL. So I backed out. Upon reboot, I tried to get back into the Mac OS by holding the Option key, and it wouldn't show me the option to go back - just the boot disk, and the Windows HDD (on which there was nothing yet, and which disappeared as an option on the next reboot).
In speaking to the support line, I formatted my hard drive re-installed, and we suspected the problem was due to the 10GB partition I created - apparently Windows XP needs 15GB to install itself. Maybe it just picked the wrong partition and screwed it up?
I tried the process again, same thing happened. I called the support line again, got someone different, and was informed of my real problem:
------I was using a Windows XP disk I had received with my PC when I bought it a few years ago (an OEM Windows XP disk)-------
Apparently you can't do that for some reason! I was told that my partitioning was ok, and it was the copy of Windows that was screwed up, and I would have to go buy a new version (which I'm not going to do).
Before trying Boot Camp, I had this exact copy of Windows installed through Parallels, and it worked fine - I just stupidly decided to make the switch to Boot Camp and all **** broke lose. Back to Parallels!

After Boot Camp installation, Kernel Panic when launching OSX partition

Hey guys. I have a mac mini (early 2009) with Mac OSX 10.6.2 running. I installed XP Professional Sp3 using the Boot Camp Assistant with no errors. It works fine. However, whenever I launch the OSX partition, even in single-user mode, it Kernel Panics. What can I do to stop this?
I have a legal copy of XP and OSX, by the way.

this does not sound like a problem with anything on your drive then but rather a firmware issue. just to make sure, how are you booting from the DVD? reboot and hold "c" at the chime. any luck? if not reboot and hold option at the chime. this ought to boot you into startup disk manager where you can choose what to boot from.
