I have just installed Windows XP Pro 32-bit using Boot Camp. This was done on a Mac mini, Core 2 Duo 2GHz running Leopard.
It all worked fine, until I have to install the Windows drivers. I boot into Windows and insert the Leopard Install Disc. Nothing happens. I open the disc in "My Computer"... and Windows can't see any files at all. I've researched a little and some people have a similar issue when running "MacDrive"... but I'm not. This is a fresh install of Windows!
Any ideas?
 
Is the disc a backup copy?

Other people on here have had the same problem with backed up Leopard DVDs because the Mac can't see the Windows data on the disc when copying.
 
I had no problem to install XP SP2 on partitioned HD with Boot Camp. All I did is to follow direction, Leopard had all drivers. BTW it was OEM version of XP, that I got from local computer store with 2Gig RAM purchase. I needed RAM anyway.:)
