    Hi. I tried to install windows Xp on my MacBook 10.5.6. With 186GB. Using bootcamp. It stopped midway. After removing the Xp disc I restarted my MacBook. Before installing the Xp disc the free memory was about 165GB but after it was 22GB and falling fast. I tried to delete some other files including videos and now iTunes is reporting error-200. What could be the cause of memory loss and iTunes error. What can I do to correct this?

    delete the partition, and when you do it again make sure you have enough free space. and the itunes error could be because you have it loaded on the other side of the partition, the non OS X side.

    you can open Disk Utility in your Applications/Utilities folder and run a Verify on your hard drive, see if there are any errors... if there are errors on the boot partition, you'll have to boot off your OSX install disc and run disc utility from the top menu bar to actually repair them.
