Thank you sincerely in advance for any replies to this.

I need to install Windows on my 2012 MB Pro glossy display, running current version of Yosemite. I have a licensed copy of Windows XP, and also one of 7 although I think that one is only 32 bit. I don't really care which version I install; just need it for a small job occasionally. Boot Camp Assistant keeps telling me it doesn't see a USB flash drive. My Windows OS are on DVDs. Can Boot Camp work from the optical drive to install?
