Hi !

I'm preety much new in MAC. I've just purchased a Mac Pro with OS-X v10.5, 2 x XEON quad 3GHz, 16GB RAM and 2 x 750GB of disk storage and RAID controller. Of Course, I want Vista or at least Win XP SP2 running on my machine. I've followed the doc published on www.apple.com about using Boot Camp for making possible to have double boot (MAC OS-X and Win). I've partitioned a space for Win to about 500GB without any problems and when after using BC, system of course restarts with Win CD present in CD/DVD device and then when present in Win install environment (Win Vista or XP SP2 - I've tried both), the list of partitions (the one from which you have to choose a partition to install Windows to) is simply empty :confused:. I just cannot find any partitons and thus I'm unable to choose 500GB partiton to install windows to :(. Do I need any special drivers ?

I would appreciate very much any kind of help.

Best regards, Jan
