    Hi,

    I can't load windows in bootcamp. It starts to load and I get a blue screen with a message that says autochek no found skipping autochek. then it starts the program over again and I can't load windows.

    It works fine with Parallels.

    Any suggestions? Is there a way I can load windows in safe mode? What else can I do?

    I don't understand the step 2 which says
    2. Restart Mac and boot from Windows XP Installation CD

    How do I restart and boot from windows xp installation CD? And is that the installation CD that I made in the previous step?

    Yes it is the cd you made with SP3, insert CD in drive, restart the mac, and boot from the CD (hold down the Option key while your Mac boots to select the boot device).

    Because, maybe, it's not installed? Do have the Boot Camp icon in the tray when you boot to XP thru Boot Camp (natively)?
