    when starting MacBook Pro it says: "insert boot disc"

    I just removed Windows Xp Sp2 that was installed via bootcamp, now it shows that window, in order to initiate Leopard I must press the Alt Option key in order to get the WHAT WAS BEFORE, options between Windows and Mac, now only showing MAC option (since windows was desinstalled)

    Is there anyway it can start directly to mac without pressing the Alt Option key?

    System Preferences - Startup Disk. Choose the Mac OS HD and you're good to go
