Genesis and Roadmap of my Mac Experience

Installing Microsoft Windows XP

August 15, 2006

Of course MacOS X is a great operating system but in the real world, you can need to run an application that is only available on Microsoft Windows. And with Intel-based Macs, you can now install and natively run Windows XP thanks to Apple Boot Camp.

It worked well for me following the Boot Camp Manual except one problem:

I performed the installation with the USB Mighty Mouse connected and it locked the keyboard preventing to resume Windows XP SP2 installation at some point.

So, don’t use an external mouse when installing Windows !
