Recently I used bootcamp. I can now go to PC/MAC. I thought when I got to the PC side, it would all be downloaded because I thought the disc was downloaded. *Windows XP installation disc*. This, however, was not the case. I logged on to XP and I had no internet, only internet explorer. No icons in the bottom right corner or anything. I tried reinstalling it, and it asked for the Certificate of Authenticity, so I looked on the back of the case and it said it was printed on the computer. The disc came with a different computer, and we never used it so I could not get the code. I'm wondering if their is any other way to download any type of windows without the code or internet. Any help is greatly appreciated. First one to give me some crap saying it's illegal, well, I'll tell you now. Your a goody two shoes and I don't care, at all.
 
download an .iso xp version from a good torrent site. Then burn to cd or dvd. There are several out there that don't require you to have a serial when you install and you can update them just like normal and they pass all windows validations too.

I used boot camp for a wile but I really like my mac and want it accessible all the time so I switched to using VM Ware Fusion. You can find a torrent of VM Ware most any torrent site.

The best windows to run that I have found so far for VM Ware is Performance Edition Windows XP. All of the stupid stuff is stripped out and it is blazing fast even as a virtual machine.

You know Vista runs better on a mac then it does on a PC.
