go to steampowered.com and install steam. Let it download the apps that you want. I actually copied my existing XP Steam folder from another PC and although it has all my settings (keyboard mappings, etc) it still had to download from steam the CS:S files. But it works. I do have some video artifacts but that could be because I'm using dual monitors on my iMac. Its getting about 51fps in the video stress test, haven't played online yet.

It's not a dual cpu issue. I have counter strike (condition zero) and counter strike source running on my dual athlon. Also i had both running on my Mac mini core duo under xom. Can't test with Bootcamp cuase it doesn work *honk honk*. I hate my Mac.

Have you removed the XOM installation entirely before trying BootCamp, I mean with complete erase of the HD (to reinitialize the partition table), reinstall of OS X and then installation of BootCamp?
