Well i installed boot camp and it didn't work out too well. I tried to install xp and it looked like it was installing but after it reboot i went to a black screen saying that i couldn't boot from cd press any key to continue or something along those lines.. after much troubleshooting i gave up and just deleted the partion.. now when i shut down my macbook and turn it on again i have to hold option and choose the mac hd to boot into it doesn't automatically boot into mac even though its the only option available. Thanks for reading.
Got a tip for us?

Your most likely problem with XP not working is that you HAVE to re-format the partition during the XP install, or it won't boot. Lots of people miss that one =]
To fix your existing booting problem, go into system prefs/startup disk and select your OS X partition.
