Hi, i´m using snow leopard and my bootcamp version is 3.0.4. I have been trying to install windows xp through bootcamp, but i´m having a little trouble... boot camp asks me to put a windows 7 disc...but i only have one xp disc... is there some way to install my xp instead of win7?...maybe downloading an earlier version of bootcamp, of installing snow leopard through the disc... i dont like my second chance...

If you’re not sure when your Mac computer was introduced, see http://www.apple.com/support/hardware, click your Mac model, and look for an article on identifying your Mac.

you could do it just by downloading the free virtualbox from oracle
