No. If you have Mac OS X Leopard, you have Bootcamp. Search bootcamp with finder and launch the program. Then follow the instructions to install Windows. |

bootcamp is in the Utilities folder.
Also if you are installing Windows XP it must have Service Pack 2 integrated with Windows XP. |

Do you have a running Microsoft Windows system on your mac or not? You have to install the game, just copy wont do. |

By "copied" I mean, I put the files on a few discs, and then put them into their own folder on the Mac desktop.
Boot Camp, is that a Microsoft Windows system? |

bootcamp is a mac OSX thing that allows windows to run on a mac.
Go to:
Application > Utilities > Boot Camp Assistant
then follow the instructions. |

before you start..things you need.
10g free space (I did it 20g..reserv)
Windows xp disk (with service pack 2...I don´t recommend Vista, because even MS sayd that this was mistake)
30 pages paper..please print out that install manual..(you can thank me later)
Mac OS X dvd (you should have this already..later you will find all drivers you need from that disk)
Follow the manual...(it is quite easy)

I do not understand what you are asking or telling. The Windows disk is something you have to buy, it is not shipped with the mac. |
