Why is it that... whenever the windows installation is about to boot into the "windows" section of the installation, where there are images and graphics all over the place... i get blue screened?
Anyone else experiencing any problems like this?
I've gotten bootcamp to work ONCE. after that, installations never complete. Or shall I say.. never start.

Don't know. You are using a copy of Windows XP SP2? What machine are you installing it on?

I dunno, I used a retail XP SP2 install and never got blue screened. What type of XP disc are you using? OEM, Retail, SP2, Slipstreamed?
To be honest, I have not seen too many (read any) posts over at the apple discussion forum stating your symptoms either so its not a wide ranging issue.

Did you make sure to update the MBP's firmware?
Can you test the disc on a different machine to make sure the disc itself isn't corrupted somehow?
