flash start xp on mac air

mrollie · Nov 22, 2009, 09:55 PM

Hi, newbie to mac, but have finally managed to install VMware Fusion and Win XP Pro. Problem is that the xp disc needs to be available every start up to open windows. This is making portability a problem. Everything seems to work ok apart from this.

I guess there is a way to transfer the win XP Pro SP2 to a usb flash drive (or to the HDD preferably) to do this but not been successful so far. Also is it necessary to keep the Boot Camp partition as this does not seem to be being used
Can anyone help me please? Thanks in advance
