HiAs a Mac newbie I'm in need of just the kind of help this forum specialises in.To explain:- I recently bought a used MacBook (mid-2010) for the sole purpose, to begin with, of running Windows XP Home (32-bit) on it. I had read that to do this I would need a version of OS X no later than Snow Leopard and so I purchased a SL installation-DVD from the Apple Store. Hi 24bitThanks for replying.Buying a MacBook to mainly run Windows XP may look a bit queer to the casual reader. WinkI can well understand that reaction! I do realise that I'm swimming against the tide - but isn't that what many contributors to this forum are also doing, in their own way?If I were aiming to go about the thing in a more contemporary way I guess I'd do it much as you suggest.

But my aims are more limited (and so is my cash - memory isn't cheap). I have one particular program to which I'm wedded, have used for nearly 20 years and on which I depend. That program runs on nothing later than Windows XP, which my Skylake-equipped PC refuses to have anything to do with.Of course that problem could have been tackled via the the VM route, which I did consider. I have tentatively experimented with virtualisation before now but it wasn't a happy experience and quite honestly I don't think I can be bothered to go through the hassle of teaching myself how to use it properly.

Life's too short - especially if, like me, you're already 82! As the song says: '.And I haven't got time, for the waiting game.'

.is this your MacBook?Yes, it's the one you linked to. Questions:-⦁ If I were to uninstall XP SP2 (32-bit) and try to install XP SP3 (32-bit) instead - still with SL ver. 10.6.3, using Boot Camp 3.0.2 - would Boot Camp install it?⦁ If so, and if I subsequently installed the available SL updates (thereby converting it to ver. 10.6.8), would Boot Camp (ver.???) then become unable to go on running any 32-bit version at all of Windows XP?Hi torpare.You can also try updating XP SP2 to XP SP3, over the SP2 install that you already have working, without needing to re-install from scratch.The XP SP3 update.iso can still be located online as a free download if you don't have it. It requires XP SP2 to be installed as the running Win XP OS, prior to updating to SP3. The download link for XP SP3 update iso is:No longer available from Microsoft's site, the DL is from the Wayback Machine archived mirror of Microsoft's download pages.

The MD5 checksum for the US English.iso is:308245853e5b231343ee17b36ffda1e6.xpsp35512.0usax86frespcd.isowhich you can check against. Other language groups I haven't tested.I cannot say if then updating your Mac OS to 10.6.8 will be successful tho, re having XP still running OK, so YMMV there. Hi MikeTomTomMany thanks for that info.You can also try updating XP SP2 to XP SP3, over the SP2 install that you already have working, without needing to re-install from scratchI've DL'd the.iso using my desktop PC running Windows 10, and then moved it over my LAN to Shared Documents on the MacBook (this indirect method being necessitated by problems I'm having with IE ver.6 - the native ver. For SP2 - which is the only browser I so far have running on BootCamp Windows XP; Firefox refused to install ).Now I'm pondering how to mount/install from the.iso: it will need another DL, in the past I've used Daemon Tools Lite but have got a bit disenchanted with it. I was going to say that you could jump up to 10.6.5 at least:There is a choice of patches that you can then apply for BootCamp:Don't just install, read the description, most resolve specific issues, if you have that issue, try it, if not leave it.I don't have the same setup, so it may mean nothing, but I did run Windows XP Pro SP3 (32 bit) under BootCamp on both 10.5.8 and then 10.7.x with no issue.

So it's Pro and SP3. I seem to remember SP3 being a minimum requirement.I have recently upgraded it to 10.11, but not tested BootCamp - I will probably wipe it anyway, using a Lenovo laptop w/ Windows 7 Pro for my Windows needs (the Lenovo with 500GB SSD and 16GB RAM was cheaper than another 16GB RAM for my Mac Pro).

Thanks so much for all those so helpful responses!This is just a holding reply because I've had to suspend taking any further steps while I put right a stupid mistake I made when I originally installed XP using Boot Camp: I allocated a ridiculously-small portion of my 128 GB hard drive to Windows - don't ask! - with the result that it's now full-up.So now I'm forced to go through the whole process again, only better this time. Only after I've done that shall I be able to get back to the job in hand. We live and learn (well most of us do anyway).

I've now got myself in a complete pickle! I won't go into all the gory details but the immediate roadblock is that I somehow got saddled with two partitions on my MB's hard drive neither of which I'm able to erase, format or change. I need to use Boot Camp Assistant to do a fresh install of Windows XP but it's telling me that first 'the startup disk must be formatted as a single Mac OS volume'.

I'm now on my third iteration of trying to do that - in vain: all I'm doing is going round in circles.After the second failed attempt I thought the only way to break out of this would be to start all over from the beginning by carrying-out a fresh install of Snow Leopard from the installation DVD.But that didn't work either - I'm still stuck in the same endless loop.Can anyone suggest what I ought to do, because I'm stumped? Hi bertyboyIs your lack of network connection over wireless or over Ethernet?It's over bothWhen you ran Boot Camp Assistant immediately after installing Windows (to install the Windows Support software - Windows drivers for the Mac hardware), did you get a list of what was installed?No I didn't. I've no recollection of being presented with the option of calling-up such a list. Have I been missing-out a key step in the process (or maybe I've just become confused about what I did or didn't see - wouldn't be surprising!)? BertyboyThanks for your patience.

I think the message (quite rightly) is:- 'RTFM', though you were too forebearing to say soActually I did read it, but selectively I'm afraid. I skipped the bit you're referring me to, for this reason:- 'Luckily, having been obliged to reinstall SL for some reason I found myself by sheer fluke back again in version 10.6.3 and was able to successfully install XP Home (SP2). I've since steadfastly stayed in SL 10.6.3 for fear that were I to update it again it might once again become incapable of running XP'With a view to the complete deadlock I'm now in, and unable to escape from, I have absolutely nothing to lose by abandoning my previous caution and instead (as I probably ought to have done before) just following the manual.

I shall now do that.If I don't report-back pretty soon it'll be because I'll have left home to go on holiday. The chances of my having found the time to have carried out this test, involving having gone through the whole process again, before departure-time arrives are fairly slight.In which case I won't be posting again for another couple of weeks or so. Reporting back.After returning home and taking-up where I left off I first spent many fruitless hours seeking a breakthrough, punctuated with a variety of unbelievably-frustrating false starts and numerous iterations each with different tweaks.The good news is that I finally came out the other side into what seemed the sunlit uplands of the Windows XP-themed desktop (something never previously achieved, even with what was my only previous 'successful' attempt).

Quite a relief!There are a few malfunctions. Although relatively minor they are irritating and I'd welcome any tips people can offer derived from their experience. I can't access my LAN from XP running on the MB. If I go into 'My network places - Entire network - Microsoft Windows network - Workgroup' and then double-click on that I get an error 'Workgroup is not accessible. You might not have permission.The service has not been started'. (The service is in fact running, being set to start automatically). I'm able to see the XP 'Shared folders' folder in the Network folder on my desktop PC running Windows 10, and to share files by 'pulling' them from that end but not to 'push' them from the MB.

Possibly connected with that, in 'Device Manager' one of the several 'Other devices' listed with yellow question-marks superimposed is 'Ethernet Controller' the 'Properties' page for which says that no drivers are installed. All attempts to find/install drivers have failed so far. Another is 'Audio Device on H.D. Audio Bus' (which nagged me constantly until I disabled it). I get irritating pop-ups from the system tray telling me my battery is empty and I'll lose all my data if I don't quickly plug into the power-socket. (I run the MB nearly all the time in plugged-in desktop mode, not portable mode).(Btw the problem with the network access applies regardless of whether I have only the wireless connection in place or both it and the wired connection).There are probably a few more glitches which I haven't remembered but the above will do for now.Overshadowing all is, I suppose, the posssibility that upgrading Snow Leopard to ver. 10.6.8 &/or XP to SP3 might cure some if not all of these problems.

But I'm scared stiff that any change whatsoever might cause the whole house of cards to collapse and that I'll be back again where I started-from - a possibility so dire as to bring me out into a cold sweat just thinking about it. Can anyone offer any soothing reassurances about that?EDITContinuing to tinker has led to some changes.

Concerning 1. I'm now able to access 'Workgroup' in My Network Places in XP, so that's one step forward. However I still can't open any of the folders shared by my desktop PC running Windows 10 - access to them all is denied. Concerning 2. Since the foregoing result is achievable over my wireless connection the non-availablility of a driver for an Ethernet Controller seems a bit academic, so please disregard.

Said by:i installed it the other day and it killed my backup machine that isnt even 3 months old. Had to do a reformat. It wouldnt boot from safe mode, last known good config or anything. Good job microshaft.I had some trouble with SP3 as well. I installed it on a FRESH install of XP w/ sp1, and windows update refused to work anymore. The error I was getting was because of anti-virus inteferring.there was no AV installed.Had the same problem on a fresh install of XP w/ SP2, and then SP3 installed.

Did a wipe and reinstall with SP2 and manually updated everything.
