I installed XP with Bootcamp the day before yesterday, installed the driver CD and then all the patches from the Microsoft. Everything seemed to be working just nicely. When I started the machine yesterday for the first time the computer would boot up, but after logging in the machine would do an immediate reboot and then end up in a black screen. Booting to OS X was still possible. So I did a reinstall of XP - doing only a quick format during the install. This time the driver CD install crashed at the first time (BSOD), but run successfully the second time. At the reboot I had the same problem again. So I installed XP for a third time - this time the full treatment again (repartioning the disk, regular format during the install of XP). After install of the driver CD I get the problem again, but the machine boots up fine after the removal of the coorded USB mouse. I was able to connect a wireless mighty mouse and install the patches from the MS website. Everything is working great.
Today I start up the machine and the problem has returned. I run the extended hardware test from the OS X install CD, but came up with no problems.
Any suggestions on what the problem could be and how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
