Patch acts differently on 2.16GhZ MBP (Fails..but "differently")

[jann]

Just to let ppl know, the system does NOT stop and "Do nothing" right after the boot of the CD for installing

The How To says: "IMPORTANT NOTE: This will launch the XP setup. For about 2 and a half minutes there will be NO FEEDBACK WHATSOEVER."

This is not the case with me. I get the IMMEDIATE "white text of black of (i guess XOM.efi) in center of screen (VGA mode?) then setup starts in a small window on the upper left of my screen (about 5"x3" on my MBP 2.16gHz) and setup starts loading drivers (HAL, etc) ..then

Then system locks up!
CD powers down after about 1 more minute...then system totally dies.

Have to hold power for 10 seconds to shut system off and restart it.

Using Retail Win XP Pro patched w/SP2 and patched w/the OEM and i386 extra files in the xp/patch tree of the zip file from this site.

Burned using Nero just like the instructions stated.

PLZ HLP!

hmm... im getting a similar thing with the 20" iiMAC's running 2gHz with 2GB ram and 250GB HD...

one thing is though that i dont get a setup window in the top or anywhere, just the black screen... any ideas?

all i did was split the drive evenly too, so i got 116GB per drive or so...

i wonder if i should reformat and lower the XP partition to 40GB or something...

we'll see!
