Hi Mike and Erik, Yes, you need to install Boot Camp 2.1 in order to run the XP SP3, but David has already done this. This got a bit confusing because the posts have gone into multiple threads, Yesterday's posts under
Subject: bluetooth update, worse than I thought: contain the separate discussion about this. Here's the link if you want to read the summaries: http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss%40macvisionaries.com/msg36663.html (I got very confused about the context of the original one-line post in that thread, but it turned out to be about problems using any of his bluetooth devices after he had updated to XP SP3 after doing the Boot Camp update).
