Thanks for the reply. How would I know if the hard drive is bad?

I'm very sorry... I didn't think the post was going through. I was getting some "attachment" thing loading. Can I delete the dups?

I want to install XP with Mac Boot Camp. I own a original full version of XP Pro, but it does not include SP2. (I'm certain that it is a full version.) I carefully (and multiple times) created a bootable XP disk with SP using nLite. When I do the Boot Camp installation, the Windows installer recognizes the disk as an upgrade, rather than a full version. It asks me to insert the full or previous version to prove that I qualify for the upgrade. I obviously cannot remove and replace the disk from the Mac, since there is no way to eject. Can anyone offer any suggestions for I might resolve this issue? Thanks much. Alex
