BETA (August 9, 2007)

Mac OS X / Freeware / 31,678 downloads

Boot Camp lets you install Windows XP without moving your Mac data, though you will need to bring your own copy to the table, as Apple Computer does not sell or support Microsoft Windows. Boot Camp will burn a CD of all the required drivers for Windows so you don't have to scrounge around the Internet looking for them. You will need Windows XP Home Edition or Professional, Service Pack 2 installation disc.

Follow the instructions for installation.

    For what it is, it does it well. Great piece of easy to use software.

    For me, it just won't work. I have my hard drive in 3 partitions and when I run Boot Camp Assistant, it says:

    The Startup Disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition.

    The startup disk must be formatted as a single MAC OS Extended (Journaled) volume or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant for installing Windows.

    Then the only option is to QUIT.

    Parallels does not have this sort of problem at all. So, this is totally useless to me.

    Engineering students at my university are required to have Windows OS on their system, thanks to this I can get a Mac and be able to do my work on it!!
