sounds like you need to run boot camp again actually I'd do it twice. first, make the drive one partition blowing windows away. next, reinstall windows. you did install the windows drivers for bootcamp right? if not, try that before running boot camp to clean up windows.

Good morning David;

With regards to the troubles I am having on the Windows side of my Tiger operating system installation, it doesn't appear to be a video problem. I say this as I have had a Windows service technician, whom is very familiar with the blind oriented software that I use on my Windows desktop computer (including the screen reader JAWS), but not at all familiar with the Apple/Unix operating system, come into my home to see if he could detect what the problem is with the Windows side of things on my MacBook Pro notebook. He says no errors appear when booting into the Windows partition, via Boot Camp, but that once the system is up and running, he cannot click on any icon to have the computer do anything. Alas, getting to the control panel (or even the start menu) on the Windows side of things is impossible, so I can't even uninstall JAWS to see if a fresh installation of this screen reader will prove beneficial. To conclude, on the flip side, the partition allows me to use the Apple side of things no problem what so ever.

Tootle doo,
Dennis

Good evening everyone;

I have a rank amateur question. Being that I am relatively new to the Apple operating system, having only bought a dual boot MacBook Pro notebook a couple of months back, I would like to install the new Leopard operating system in replacement of my current Tiger operating system (going this route because of wanting to learn just the intricacies of a sole operating system as well as there being some major problems on the Windows side of the "Boot Camp" partition I am using). As previously mentioned above, being an Apple newcomer, I had an Apple service technician come into my home to set up a home network for me, between my MacBook Pro and my Windows desktop computers, using an Airport Extreme base station router, as well as setting up a wireless keyboard and mouse in said system.

That said, since having the Apple service technician come back out to my home is next to impossible because of a long waiting list, if I wanted to backup the network and wireless settings on my MacBook Pro notebook before doing a clean new installation of the Leopard operating system (for migration into the Leopard operating system when it is freshly installed), what particular settings and/or methodology would you suggest?

Thank you all over the place for whatever assistance you may be able to provide,
Dennis
