I am planning on installing XP SP3 through boot camp later today. I know that Boot Camp 2.1 is nescessary to install SP3 and was wondering how I could check to see if I have 2.1 already. My XP CD already has SP3 integrated so I'm not sure if it would successfully install if 2.1 wasn't already installed. Please help!

It says I have version 2.0, so how do I update it to 2.1 so I can install SP3 right off the bat?

Are you saying that one shouldn't install XP SP3 with bootcamp 2.0? That's what I did, and then I updated to 2.1 through windows after the install.. was this incorrect? I ask this because I'm having wireless problems and am looking for a solution. That said, everything else in XP works fine.

doesn't matter/that's not what is causing your wireless issues.
