Hi,

you need to install the XP drivers.

this is the main problem here.

install the correct drivers and this will fix your problem.

but make sure that installing new drivers does not affect the Mac OS.

Why don´t you install a virtual machine with "Parallels" software for apple machines, instead of using "boot camp"?
I installed and everything is working fine!

Also have the previlege of using both windows and apple OS at the same time!!!
