Hi, I tried installing Windows XP on my 2010 MacBook Air (4 gigs RAM, 256 gigs) but it wiped out my entire hard drive (despite partitioning at 75%Mac, 25 %Windows). Thankfully I had done a Time Machine backup prior to this attempt. I run Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
Is there any problems known with installing XP on this edition, and if so are there any ways around it? Do I have to buy Windows 7?

Thanks!
