Don't know. I only boot into XP once in a blue moon to play some windows only game. I used to leave the MDK DVD in the drive for when I wanted to install something remotely, but now I just use online sources and leave the DVD out of the drive. Before, everytime I tried to boot into XP and forgot to take the disk out, I would get total lock. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
