A Couple of interesting problems

hey everyone,

first off im running a 20" iimac...

one problem is that Windows isnt finding my sound card. i have seen some other peoples posts about that after they did updates, but for me i booted windows, and then loaded the drivers and it did not work... any ideas?

also i seem to have gotten into som debugging mode in the efi when i boot windows... i press enter on the XP logo and then it switches to the black screen and i see it loading up stuff... any ideas on that one?

Thanks!

The sound card is not my specialty, but try uninstalling and then re-installing it.
On the topic on the debugging mode...
1. You accidently hit the f4 key before booting
2. you were installing xp for the first time
3. delay in processing when you booted(or delay in the HDD seeking)
4. Some random error

1 is not really likely unless you're a clutz like me
2 is completely normal
3 really likely, may happen again, you don't really have to worry
4 mabye you should worry, just kidding.
