Hey guys,
I've installed windows XP on my Mac. I can't make an internetconnection, use bluetooth and it doesn't recognize my graphic card (i tried installing a game)! I'm i doing something terribly wrong?
I also have the Vista installation disk here, should i just install that and that'll solve the problems? If so, how do i uninstall XP?
thanks

Have you inserted the OS X DVD and installed the drivers needed to run Windows? Be sure you have done that.

I had no idea i needed to do that. can i still do this now?
EDIT: never mind. I'll just deinstall the whole thing.

Just in case you ever want to try again, yes, you could have done that then, and reading the instructions is a good idea.

Disk one or disk two? I haven't deinstalled anything yet. So just put one of those disks in?

Disk 1. I take it the OP is talking about the disks that came with his Mac, not the Leopard retail disk.
