I've been running Windows XP on my Mac Pro (early 2008) with Parallels 7 for some time without problems. Today, I thought I'd try to just boot from the Windows partition without Parallels since if I want to upgrade to Mavericks, I'll need Parallels 8 or 9 and I thought I might just use Bootcamp if I upgrade.

I restarted the Mac Pro, holding down the option key and saw the choices of drives. I chose Windows and XP booted but it was >2 years out of date. By that I mean it shows Quicken 2010 instead of 2014 which I've been running.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

Eric
 
I think I'm not being clear?

I opened the Quicken 2010 and the last entry was in 2010. Everything else was from 2010 as well. That's the problem.
 
So you were making entries into Quicken while using your virtualization software and now that you're in BootCamp none of those entries are there?
 
Maybe you had a virtual machine and also a boot camp partition and you've been running on a virtual machine only.
