Is Windows XP 64-bit supported by Bootcamp?. I have a Mac G4 and i need to install Windows XP 64-bit on it, I know my Mac is an intel mac with core2duo processor, so the procesor will support Windows, but as its a mac i need to use BootCamp. Will it support my Windows XP 64bit? Please help...

I think Windows XP 64bit should work on Mac, but you will need to install Mac OS X 10.6 that is Snow Leopard, As snow leopard has 64bit kernel support, windows 64bit might work, but i'm not sure about that. Also refer this thread as it may help you too : Trouble in installing Windows XP Pro using BootCamp

Yes, Try using Mac OS X Snow Leopard, also if needed try using the latest bootcamp that is version 3. Do post back if that works...

As mentioned on bootcamp help page : 64-bit versions of Windows XP are not supported using Boot Camp. 64-bit versions of Windows Vista are supported on some Intel-based Macintosh computers using Boot Camp 2.0 or later. These Mac computers can use 64-bit editions of Windows Vista:

* MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009)
* MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2008) and later
* MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2008) and later
* Mac Pro (Early 2008) and later
