Boot Camp 3.0.4 do not support Windows XP SP2???

Support for XP is being dropped by everyone.

Try changing Properties and compatibility mode. You likely need to copy all the files to a folder on Windows volume to do so.

2011 Macs changed so much that those would need all new drivers.

Boot Camp 3.0.4 came out before Windows 7, prematurely, and didn't really support 7 either (but you have to start at .0 and upgrade to 3.1.

Can't use those download manual standalone installers without first having chicken-egg routine, 3.0 first.

Boot Camp Assistant 10.6.8 should/may/was suppose to - allow downloading a set to USB for use, but may be hard coded to look for a Windows Vista/7 DVD.

XP can run quite well for 2D stuff in VirtualBox.

Boot Camp 2.0 came out and was the same almost (they did update and change with new OEM 10.5.x DVDs) the same as the original beta BC 1.4 from late 2007.

BC 2.x was aimed at XP/Vista and BC 2.2 was aimed at XP SP3.

Your saying BC 3.4 is on the Mac installer disk? I picked mine up in august 2011 and it only has 3.1 on it if I remember right. How did you check it?

As of today my BC Assistant says 3.4 but the Control panel in Windows only says 3.3, I figure it an't broke I'm not worried about it.

When you insert the disk, it asks you what to do, Run or Open, select Open.

Make a new folder on the desktop in XP, drag ALL the files over to it.

Right click on the setup.exe and select one of the options:

1)-Troubleshoot Compatibility, do what it suggests,

2)-Select Properties / Compatibility / click Run this program in Compatibility mode: then select XP sp2 and work your way up.

If anything pops up about permissions then right click on it again and select Run as Administrator.

If it still won't work then open the Boot Camp folder / Drivers folder / and install each one manually.
