Installing XP SP0 on MacBook Pro 13'
I'd like to install Windows XP on my new MacBook Pro. Its ("BootCamp")
documentation says that Windows XP Service Pack 2 and later are supported. However, I only own the original XP CD (before Service Packs). Does anyone know if I will be able to install this old XP and then update it? What do I need for it? I tried searching for this information online but without much luck. |

You can slipstream SP2 using his method: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase...slipstream.asp (If your original XP CD is at SP1a, you can slipstream a new one with SP3 using the same method. ) You then use the slipstreamed CD to install XP on your MacBook.

You just use the serial etc from your original XP disk and it will work fine. David - who did that |
