I deleted the Win partition and started again with a Win XP Home CD and this time it worked. Seems strange. Helpful (0) Reply options Link to this post by Richard A. Oswald, Richard A.

After reading the Boot Camp Installation & Setup Guide (you can print this when you first start Boot Camp Assistant in OS X) I discovered that I made a big boo-boo.When Windows XP asked me which file system format I would like for my Windows C: partition I made the mistake in choosing "Leave the current file system intact (no changes)." The Setup guide says that you must not select that option.Instead you must select one of the other options, I personally selected "Format the partition using the FAT file system" since my Windows drive is under 32GBs. After that I had no problems.I don't know if you made the same mistake I made, but since I received the same error message I figured this might help.Good luck!

I've reformatted the machine with OSX 10.5 on a Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Here's how far I get: - Use boot camp to partition the drive, it then windows xp installation says to insert the cd, and I can press a button after the partitioning is done to restart and install. - after the restart occurs, the windows setup begins, and I install, there is a C drive (fat) and an option to install on this drive and leave it as is (or I can format as NTFS at this step), so I install on C as it is - after the install is done the computer restarts, immediately after the restart though I get a 'Disk error' message is DOS at the top left of my screen, directly after 'Press any key to boot from CD.." After first getting this error I tried installing windows again using a quick NTFS format, but got the same error w/ an addtional message about some missing dll afterwards, so I tried booting into OSX after this and restored the drive w/ boot camp, then tried again, but got the same error once again.. An idea what I can do to resolve this issue? Update Here's the error that I get when I format the drive as NTFS, instead of the 'Disk error': Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \system32\hal.dll Please re-install a copy of the above file. windows osx windows-xp macbook boot-camp share|improve
