Got my new MacBook Pro. 15", 2.0, 512mb today. Updated all software via Software Update. Downloaded the Bootcamp and wanted to install xp pro. Am getting a message that i need up date firmware.

downloaded the firmware from http://www.apple.com/support/downloa...update101.html

I am trying to get the firmware to be installed by following the instructions. howere the upgrade is not happening.instructions 2-3 say:

"2. Click Shut Down in the MacBook Pro Firmware Updater window and wait for your computer to shut down.

3. Press and hold the power button on your MacBook Pro until the power indicator light flashes repeatedly to begin the update.

A status bar indicates the progress of the update."

I am a little confused as to when to press and hold the power button as in 3 above. do i have to do that when the machine is re-starting or do that when i click Shut Down as in step 2.

Please help. Thanks

it says wait for your computer to shut down,

then Press and Hold the power button, like when your pressing the power button to start the computer, hold it down instead of taking your finger off instantly.
