Whats up.

I have this strange video issue on my Macbook Pro (Early 2006, 128MB x1600). When installing bootcamp the screen becomes literally corrupted. The colors are off and it looks as if the screen is broken.

However, in Mac OS X the colors are just fine and so is everything else. When Windows XP logo shows up during boot up after install the colors and image is corrupted as well.. I start to think it's hardware issue but.. I don't know. Mac OS works fine.

Any ideas? Below are the pictures of the issue:

Looks like a bad XP install disk to me. Not only are there screen artifacts, but there are misspellings in the text as well.

That disk is fine. I used to install XP on my PC. it is a legit retail copy of XP. I think it is a hardware issue.. Quarts Extreme is not supported in Mac OS now that I see.
