hello people, i have my lovely mbp, which is flawless, its just great:D

anyhow...i installed a while ago xp on it and i had no trouble at all, eth,wifi,sound"in headphones" worked just fine

this morning i tried whats written at the bottem of the page...
http://wiki.onmac.net/index.php/Developers/Drivers/Video

and well now if i try and get into windows...well it doesnt happen hehe, the screen flickers a little but i still see the grey windows image of the bootloader...it isnt rly a problem, i wasnt using it just wanted to see how it worked, and was waiting for video drivers to come out so i can play on it...
as i saw what they said there i though...well ill give it a shot it cant be that bad now can it?

well xp went boom...as usual...

my questien is will i be able to just reinstall xp without repartion and reinstall os?as i still have the partitions in tact my theory says i shouldnt need to reinstall osx and repartition, but just reinstall it right?

lemme know, very much apreciated...

ciao

Just wipe the partition and re-install XP. The only reason X had to be wiped first was to create the partition, but in this case, the partition exists.
