    Have you tried to start it while pressing the ALT key. You'll see all the bootable disk and normally that of OSX, if its major problem that should not be altered.

    Hello,

    Could you tell us if your Windows XP installation was done properly?

    I have doen it with virtualbox, but no idea about bootcamp. There are many more options available, You can also use VMware Fusion 3 Or Parallels Desktop 5 for Mac to install XP/Vista/7 Windows or Linux or OS chorma.

    Download VirtualBox
    Download VMware Fusion 3
    Download Parallels Desktop 5
