laughingstill Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Hello everyone, I am brand new to the forum and I would like to thank you for your help in advance This is my problem: I bought a MB Pro 17" with Leopard a little over a year ago. I have a simulator (rc helis) that will only run on a pc so I want to install Windows XP on my Mac. I distinctly remember Boot Camp being on my computer as I used it before and installed XP on my MBP previously. I lost the product registration number for the XP copy so it stopped working and I had to remove it and restore my partition. Every once in a while I get "updates" from Apple and without hesitation I installed the newest update which apparently is Snow Leopard Well now I cannot find Boot Camp in Applications>Utilities....it just is not there. I searched the computer and it is nowhere to be found How do I get Boot Camp for my Mac so that I can install Windows XP?? Please take into consideration I am a firefighter (we like it simple) and I don't understand computer lingo to the fullest so if I ask a dumb question, please be patient with me Thanks again for all the help..............Ron Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/192734-installed-an-update-and-now-no-boot-camp/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tockets Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Try searching with Spotlight for it. If it's still not around check the apple site / your original install CD. For what it's worth, I reccomend tossing Windows 7 on the dual boot. Will run like a wet dream on your MBP and supports the latest Direct X.

maya77 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 If it's not in Utilities folder then it's not on your Computer. I've uploaded it for you: http://rapidshare.com/files/294639709/Boot...tant_10.5.8.zip Extract APP and copy it to Applications/Utilities folder.
