Hello
This may be an xp - based question, but I'll try it here as well. I am a mac newbee (but I absolutely love it, and OSX!) and I was wondering if there is any way to view the mac partition from windows. I have used boot camp to install windows as a secondary operating system, and obvisouly windows does not see the mac partition. Are there any dirvers/programs I can use to view this partition from windows? Thanks! Dan

Windows XP does not have any native way of viewing an HFS partition. So the short answer is no, unless you manage to come across any 3rd party software that has HFS support under windows.
