I just installed XP Pro on a 10Gig partition on my macbook so i can still use my windows games. My macbook has Wifi built in but Xp cant use it. It says i need a Wifi Dongle. How do i get it to use the one built in. Also - if anyone can tell me a way to get windows based games to run in mac then please tell me so i can get XP OUT!
Much Appreciated.

total noob

With the original Boot Camp beta, when you went through the boot camp install process you should have been prompted to create a "Driver CD" that had the drivers to use your Airport card (among other things) when booted to Windows.

WIth the Boot Camp final edition that shipped with
Leopard, the drivers are on the Leopard DVD which you insert after you run Boot Camp to install the Airport card drivers.

Did you happen to do either of these?

Some companies (who offer PC and Mac versions) will do a trade for your PC software to MAC s/w.

If you can't fix it, blow it up and deny that you saw anything.
