Windows XP Home hates me, and so does BootCamp.

Got my new MacBook Pro yesterday (info on the system is below). Today I tried to install XP Home (32 bit) and... it did not go well.
It went fine on my old MacBook (which Kittendaddy now has). It's up and running fine.
But not on the new one.
It had no problem creating a new partition. XP installed just fine. But when I tried to install BootCamp, the installer got hung up on the audio drivers. Then it just restarted. BootCamp wasn't installed, which I learned when I tried to install Service Pack 3 and couldn't.
What the heck, people? Why won't it work? Does anyone know??
Thanks in advance!

I think the newer Macs get along better with Windows Vista or Windows 7. I had XP on a 2008 MBP for a year but there were reliability issues frequently requiring Winclone rescue. I replaced XP with Vista on this machine and it has run smoothly for the past 8 months. I also have a 2010 i7 MBP with Bootcamp/Windows 7 installed and this is also trouble free since April.
Windows XP is an antique and is comparable to Mac OS 9 in many ways.It needs to be put to pasture where it belongs.

  • Microsft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and 32bit Retail with WinNt, WinPE, WinMCE networking install no notification

    I have not been given any explanations for my multiple electronic communication device retail purchase problems. When ever I purchase a retail smartphone or retail notebook computer they do not have actual installed operating systems as advertised. The android
    operating systems are Developer SDK. The operating system on my Virgin Mobile Samsung Galaxy Ring is Android Jelly Bean 4.2.1 purchased this year is part of a Developer SDK. I purchased a Samsung i7 Chronos win8 64 bit notebook at Best Buy last year and it
    was configured as a Network Server Client in User Mode through the American Mega Trends Aptio Bios Setup Utility that had been customized to bypass regular Configuration files and install a custom operating systems on Network Volumes instead of the actual
    partitioned hard drive. I ended up with WinPE boot in to WinNT and WinMCE in an OEM Networking client server platform partial operating virtual operating systems that I have been allowed a user profile with permissions in the Administrators Group. I am not
    even the administrator of my own personal computer. Someone I do not know has hijacked the highest Administrative Authority at retail purchase and open up a number of profiles to the general public through the server client software. They have automated and
    live access to the operating systems power up or power down. I do not even think the notebook is ever powered down even though the power and activity lights are out. It is like someone has taken the windows operating system I was suppose to get at retail and
    swop it for partial virtual operating systems interface to network client software through serveers. I took the SamSung Chronos back to Best Buy and exchanged it for an Asus G75VX i7 Win8 64 bit gaming notebook with 3GB Nvidia Graphic's chip and 8GB memory
    with 1TB hard drive 3D ready and it was configured the same way as the Samsung. I took it back and returned it to Best Buy and exchanged it for another brand new in the unopen box Asus G75VX i7 win8 64bit notebook. I took it back for Best Buy to take a look
    at it because it was also configured the same way. Then I sent it to the Asus Service Center two times and it was returned to me both times configured the same way. Before I sent it back to Asus the two times I went to Fry's and purchased Windows 7 Home Premium
    32 and 64bit operating systems on DVD and the notebook configured the software the same way. After install of win7 32 or 64bit the installed operating systems did not recognize the Window's 7 Home Premium 32 and 64bit retail DVD as the same version of operating
    system. I took a look at the installation files on the retail disk and the configuration installed on the computer came from the software disk and the rest through background network servers but there is something in the AMI Aptio Bios that voids any of the
    regular Configuration Files. My computer does not even recognize the configuration file in the normal sense on the retail disk. All of the system file extensions have been altered and been added to creating almost unlimited file extensions like the system
    ran on Text. I paid $975.00 for the Samsung Chronos, $1375.00 for the two Asus G75VX's, $216.00 for the win7 DVD, $120.00 or more for insured postage on the to trips to the Asus Service Center not counting Asus prepayment of postage because I had to reship
    the notebook in order to get it to me. I have spent about $150.00 or more on software for disk management, anti virus, internet security etc. The retail purchase were modified on return purchases. Since 2007 I have gone through about seven smart phone brand
    new, About four of five regular internet phones and about eight notebook computers with three being used and five being brand new.
    I still do not have an actual operating system installed on the actual retail hard drive and my notebook is not repaired. I have operating systems installed on Network Disk Volumes that are installed on a GPT Server Partition. The configuration visually
    alters from background activities. All of my information is made public through the Virtual Public Shared C: drive.
    I am legally disable and a pro se litigator in the United States Federal Courts. Since 2007 I have litigated in three civil actions in the United States District Courts and in one all the way to the United States Supreme Court. I am currently still litigating
    in one as a legal interpreter and have done all of the legal work in that action since 2011. I have a civil litigation history in the United States District Courts dating back 28 years.
    Having all of my communication devices hacked and the legal and personal information publicly shared through three federal civil actions and through public entity department and agencies is a gross violation of United States Constitution Article IV Citizenship
    rights. A gross violation of the Bill of Rights First Amendment Rights to Petition the court for Redress of Grievances and Bill of Rights Fourth Amendment Privacy Rights and Bill of Rights Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection and Due Process rights. It is
    a gross violation of the Federal Communications Act FCC Rule 255 person's with disabilities access to electronics's telephone communication equipment and software since my smart phones and notebook computers were configured with networking, management and
    telephone hardware and software. It is a gross violation of Title II of the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 as amended in rights of person's with disabilities. It is a gross violation of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended on the rehabilitation
    rights of persons with disabilities. It is a gross violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights act of 1964 Civil Rights and it is a gross violation of litigation privacy rights within all of the federal court rules such as the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure,
    Federal Rules of Evidence, Federal Appellate Court Rules, Local Court Rules and United States Supreme Court Rules and the United States Federal Pacer Electronic Court Account  and Filing System. It is also a gross violation of state law that has to comply
    with federal law. There exists no question in law of the violations because I have furnished the computer registry files, Receipts and servicing records to Microsoft, Asus and others but nobody know how to solve the problem but the Win7 retail disks identical
    to mine disappeared from retail store shelves. What is WNT_6.1H_64_MCE?oes anybody in the Microsoft and Asus community have any explanations for the total disregard for United States federal law and customer retail purchase rights? I went to Fry's and Best
    Buy and took a look at a number of notebook computer files and configuration and a number of them were like mine. The thing that irritates me the most about the configuration if it is public is that it is not passive. A profile folder has been configured for
    me that alters the configuration of what I purchased to violate my constitutional rights. They even alter the hardware and software settings to Legacy that ran on computers from ten fifteen years ago and force it on me at modern day electronics prices. That
    is not right.

    Where no law is involved in denials and restrictions in constitutional rights it is impossible for it to be legal.

    Hi, I've an iPad Mini with the latest version 6.0.2, a windows 7 Home Premium laptop and iTunes 11.0.1 (12), but I can't synchronize my music or videos with it. I managed to syncronize my books but thats all.
    I also have an iphone 5 and everything seems to work fine with it.
    I see all movies and music available to be sync but when I click on the sync button, the process starts, the bottom bar shows an increase in consumed space then nothing happens and the bar goes back as nothing was added.
    Please help..
    I have tried everything but nothing works.

    Thanks Sk8dreams,
    ....but I wish I could have lol like u right now..
    If I could get a free iPad everything I'd already kept my iPad connected and restarted iTunes, I think I'd have had a truckload of them by now...
    I've done all of these..
    Like I said earlier I syncd everything to my iphone5 successfully...
    I got my PDF ebooks to this same iPad... Films & Music do not seem to be getting through..
    I'm sure someone out there knows what to do..

    I suspect you had the same issue I did and downloaded the 64-bit version of the OpenSC libraries, but your firefox is 32-bit. You can see the opensc-pkcs11.dll in the System32 folder via windows explorer, but when you browse that directory via firefox to add the module, you are acutally being redirected to the SysWOW64 directory. Try intstalling the 32-bit OpenSC libraries, and adding the appropriate library from the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory.

  • Windows 7 home premium crashed and my hard drive is now unreadable!!

    Right so i installed windows 7 home premium  in A.H.C.I mode because i was told that mode was better on my acer aspire 5552 laptop after my previous hard drive crashed and i had to reinstall in safe mode eventually i got a new hard drive because the
    old one still didnt perform better in AHCI and the new hardrive ran fine for a couple hours. while installing some auto updates it crashed and i tried rebooting but it said no operating system was found or somthing of that nature. i figured i must have just
    installed something weird or maybe just a happen chance so i tried re-installing and my laptop said there was a hard drive there but it was labeled 0 unallocated and 0.0mb. I couldnt delete it and i couldnt reformat it to re-install windows. i looked around
    and was told i could go into cmos and clean the drive or delete whatever was on it there. it said there was a disk 0 there with 512 b of somthing and it was online but no such luck even after cleaning the drive in cmos the problem showed up the same. deleting
    didnt work either the laptop said that function cannot be completed. i then looked into the bios and saw that the hard drive wasnt even there anymore. i tried a third hard drive but this time i switched it back to I.D.E and its been 3 days without a problem
    so im assuming the AHCI mode froze my hard drive. now my question is how do i get my other hard drives back and unlocked because i know they still work i can hear them spining and the computer can kind of read them in the cmos

    You need to take your computer to a computer repair shop as there are no capabilities in Windows to repair hardware problems and since your computer will not boot, you have a hardware problem.  You new disk may have crashed.  Configuring your hardware
    is not in the scope of this forum.  Hardware configuration is the responsibility of the manufacturer, not these forums.
    Acer technical support is the ones qualified to advise you about your system.

  • Hi, i have a new toshiba laptop with windows 7 home edition K and first thing i did was download firefox but it does not open... thank you!

    Laptop is L630 and i bought it in Korea, language base is korean/english. I downloaded firefox first but it was US-english, so i uninstalled it and re-installed the uk-english version. Before that I set a persona on firefox 9the only add-on i was in time to set)
    When i click on the icons it does not launch...
    I tried several tiime to relaunch the PC but so far no change...

    I can't think of any way to make the Navigation Toolbar appear/disappear based on which direction you move your mouse.
    Well, there is full screen view, where the whole toolbar area including the tab bar slides up off the screen, and reappears if you slide the mouse pointer all the way to the top. (You can use the F11 key to turn full screen view on and off.)
    Is it possible this is an option of one of your extensions?

  • Windows error: iTunes crashes (uninstall and reinstall does not work)

    Hello all.
    I (and another user) have had a problem with iTunes crashing when trying to open it. Windows just generates the typical vague error message that explains nothing as to what the problem is. Uninstalling and reinstalling did not work, and using the "Repair" option did not work either.
    This was the solution. Hope it works for you. Cheers.
    C ;o)
    Here are the steps, some might be redundant, but still follow them to try and get iTunes to work.
    1. *Extremely important* Close the QuickTime launcher in the tray on the right side of your Windows TaskBar (right-click on the blue QuickTime "Q" logo next to where you have the time and date and select "exit".) The QuickTime logo should disappear from the tray.
    2. Go to where your iTunes library folder is, copy it and put it elsewhere on yoour hard-drive. This is where you asked your iTunes to point to and keeps the full repository of the files sync'ed to your iPod. If you don't do this, you will have to re-create the full library of all the music and files you have put into iTunes.
    3. Unistall iTunes and reboot your PC.
    4. Go to c:\Program Files\Quicktime and delete this whole folder.
    5. Go to c:\Windows\System 32 and: delete the Quicktime FOLDER there; then (ii) scroll down and delete all other QuickTime related files (there should be 5-10 of them, I didn't count, some will have a name like QuickTMvr whatever).
    6. Empty Recycle Bin.
    7. Reboot your PC.
    8. Go back to Apple Website and download: iTunes, and (ii) QuickTime installation only (without iTunes).
    9. Install QuickTime FIRST (use newly downloaded version)! Check it works OK by opening it.
    10. Close QuickTime lanucher from tray, as explained above in step 1.
    11. Install iTunes (use the newly downloaded version).
    12. Open iTunes. If it opens fine (clap your hands and say "hurray", and actually I said out loud to my PC, "Please work" and it did - I don't know if this step helped at all. ;o) ), then close iTunes FIRST BEFORE DOING THE NEXT STEP. Go to where the new iTunes (and library) folder is, rename the new iTunes folder (as you might notice when/if you open iTunes, that it is all blank), and copy the old iTunes folder (from step 2) to the same location. Re-open iTunes. It should be the way it opened the last time.

    Btw.
    Don't forget that, from my experience, most iTunes errors comes from malfunctioning instances of QuickTime.

  • Every time I open Firefox or a new Firefox window, my home page opens but so does a second tab showing the LinkedIn login page. Don't know how this started happening or how to stop it.

    Figured it out. There was code in the Preferences/home page field telling it to open my home page and that page at the same time in two tabs. Don't know how it happened, but is fixed now.

    Yeah, I don't know why I can't find my posted problem of November 18, but it was similar, and I also figured out how to fix it. IF when you open Firefox to your homepage and MORE opens than IS your homepage, then go to tools, options, and check your homepage info. You will find the URLs to your homepage plus whatever windows are opening that you do NOT want. Delete everything but the homepage and close. I had at least 10 windows opening from a browsing session over a week ago every time I opened Firefox... aggravating!

  • I got a new home dock station and it does not play my music while its in the dock. my neighbor has the same phone and hers works fine in my dock station.wondering why?

    I got a new dock station and it will not play any of my music while my iphone 3gs is docked. my neighbor has the same exact phone and hers plays fine..what could be the problem?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • Windows 7 No 4GB (32bit) and in 64bit BootCamp drivers do not work!!!

    Hello. I have a MacBook 3,1 (late 2007 model) with 4GB RAM. Under Windows 7 32bit, only 2.96gb Ram is useable and the Boot Camp drivers run fine. How do I get Windows 7 to recognize the entire 4GB? I have used bcdedit /set pae ForeceEnable and that doesn't do anything, still 2.92gb useable not 4gb although W7 recognizes the 4Gb as available? How to enable to fully?
    Second, 64bit Windows 7 recognzes the full 4gb but the Boot Camp drivers do not install at all! Hence, no mouse, sounce is crap/unusable, and the rest of the Apple devices are crap. I have downloaded BootCamp 2.1 update but in 64bit Vista, when I run BootCampx64.msi it sells me "Bot Camp x64 is not supported for this model." Hence, the 64bit drivers do not install DESPITE a 64bit OS.
    I went to the Genius Bar but the guy was an oaf and didn't know anything helpful. Help please!?!!!
    Help please.

    That is because 32bit version do not support 4 gigs of memory. It only supports up to 2 gigs even though it can read more than that.
    Windows 7 is not fully supported as it is not released yet. You might be able to find some Windows Vista 64bit drivers for it but there is no guarantee that it will work.
    You are incorrect! I am UPGRADING from Vista 32bit which supports 4GB of RAM with SP1. If you read my original post, you will see that I already tried the Vista 64bit drivers in Windows 7 64bit.
    Windows 7 is downloadable from Microsoft and also supported already by Parallels v4 and the latest Fusion.
    Hence, my original questions stand: How can I enable fully enable 4GB in Windows 7 32bit? Or, install, with Windows 7 64bit, install the correct Boot Camp drivers?
    As I said, when brunning the Vista 64bit Boot Camp drivers in Windows 7 64bit, it says "Vista x64 Boot Camp not supported on this model."
    Anyone have any suggestions?

  • Conflicts between Itunes and Windows Vista Home Premium Edition

    I am looking to purchase a new pc with Windows Vista. What are some possible problems I could have with Itunes?

    I have a new Windows Vista Home premium laptop and am NOT able to use the latest version of iTunes. Hopefully by the time you get your new computer, Apple will have taken the time to fix the garbage program that they are passing off as the latest version of iTunes.

  • Ei.cfg not being seen by windows installer on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit retail disk.

    My problem is that the retail disk of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit has no ei.cfg restrictions. Instead of choosing the correct operating system ID, on install, the .cfg
    is coming from some where else installing a custom version of windows that is a different version of windows than on the retail install disk that I have a software key to. Even though it recognizes the key as windows 7 the operating system no longer recognizes
    the retail disk it was installed from as the same version of operating system. It seems that there is a pre operating system install to a volume that cant see the ei.cfg file on the windows retail disk. It is something like Windows ME or MCE and it is hard
    to get past because it acts  like the operating system after install. It looks like there is a complete install of windows 7 but it is only a version of ME or MCE in the 100MB range installed to a partition volume. I am given a User account Profile within
    Application Data folder  in the system. The actual windows system in its entirety does not exist in the partial virtual operating systems. All the installs are to Partition Volumes on the Partition of a GPT Server Partition on a Disk
    on the Hard drive. All Virtual.
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and 32bit retail disk is GSP1RMCHPXFRER_EN_DVD. The bios version on my Asus G75VX is American Megatrends version 206, V Bios version 80.04.97.00.13.N62G75500, EC version B14E140001. The operating system version is not the same
    as the install disk. The boot configuration is; American Megatrends Bios Aptio Setup Utility installed. :\\?|GLOBALROOT\Device|HarddiskVolume1\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD.Backup.0001 Software build after install is Buildlab 7601.Win7Sp1_rtm.101119-1850 Client install

    The above information was taken after an install from the Microsoft Windows 7 64 bit retail disk purchased at Fry's and installed to my Asus G75VX. It is a Network Managed Client Server configuration that installs from the retail disk.

    I have been dealing with this problem since the day I purchased the first notebook from Best Buy configured this way and it was not even an Asus. It was a Samsung Chronos i7. The Asus G75VX I have now is the third notebook in a row purchased from Best Buy
    with the configuration right out of the un open retail box. None out of the three came with windows 7 installed. They had windows 8 64bit installed with the configuration. I purchased Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit attempting to get around the configuration
    problem.
    My main concern is that I use computers to do my legal documents in court cases in the United States Federal Courts and I am a pro se litigator and I have been litigating a civil action since 2011 that is still open in the federal court. I am also legally
    disable and covered by Federal Communications Act FCC Rule 255. This configuration has Telephone software and equipment, Management Software and equipment, and Networking software and equipment all covered within FCC Rule 255. My notebook is unusable for litigation
    or personal use as a Publicly Managed Network Client Server. I paid $1350.00 of my Social Security Disability income for the Asus G75VX and another $216.00 for Windows 7 Home Premium 32 and 64 bit DVD and that is not counting a list of other things to
    now have a personal notebook computer I have to sat down beside me in public libraries, Colleges etc. to use their computers to do my legal work. It is illegal and total wrong and it is a violation of the Bill of Rights First and Fourth Amendments and Title
    VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the American with Disability Act outside of 255.
