Unhappy Boot Camp Help

Hey guys, I just installed Boot Camp, and have Windows running on my MacBook now. Problem is, I can't get back into OSX! When I turn my computer on, it just goes straight to XP, and doesn't give me any option to boot OSX.

I'm really scared! Can anyone help me?! Thanks!

are you holding down the alt/option key when booting?

maybe need to change start-up volume/source whatever?

sorry not a lot of help but a start.

also, did you install windows on the c/ drive or did you install it on the mac partition, that would be really bad

Nah, I'm not holding down anything when I boot. As soon as I turn it on, I just get the Windows boot screen. Yeah, I installed it on the C/ drive, not the Mac partition!

This sucks! I'm sick of Windows already!

...BTW, I'm on a 2.0ghz Core 2 Duo MacBook with 1gb RAM.

Go into Control Panel and double click on the startup disk icon. Its installed with the Mac drivers. Select the Mac HD and hit restart and you're back in OSX.
