I have Windows XP installed on my mac via Bootcamp for engineering purposes and for my Rhapsody music subscription. I recently installed the latest Windows XP update and now when I try to boot via Bootcamp Windows pops up an error screen during startup.
I get the following options:
Windows was unable to boot (or something like that)
Start in Safe Mode
Start in Safe Mode w/ Networking
Start using last known good configuration
Start Windows Normally
I have tried safe mode and use last known good configuration, but when I select them, XP simply reboots, meaning I have to hold down option to access XP again. When I reload XP it brings the same screen up. It is as if the delay in rebooting is messing up what XP is trying to do.
Any way to fix this?
My school installed XP for me via Bootcamp, and unfortunately their new Mac license no longer allows them to install XP for free for Mac users. I really don't want to have to shell out the money for an operating system I only use about 10% of the time. Are there any ways to fix my XP?
*edit - Also one more thing. If I use Parallels to launch my XP it works perfectly. Unfortunately Rhapsody refuses to sync my MP3 player when being run through Parallels.
