1. The MacBook Pro, however, has just a single mouse button. When running the Mac OS that’s not a problem because a two-finger tap on the trackpad simulates a right-click, or you can hold down the Control key and click for the same results. What about when running Windows with Boot Camp?
2. Hi: I've installed XP Pro through Boot Camp w/ all the necessary drivers on my MacBook. However I can't get figure out how to work the right click on the pad. I use to have an iMac Intel @ work, it worked fine w/ Apple Mouse. I'm pretty sure all drivers were installed properly as I tried.

In Windows on your Mac, click in the right side of the taskbar, click the Boot Camp icon, then choose Boot Camp Control Panel. If a User Account Control dialog appears, click Yes.

One day I was running Vista in Boot Camp without using my external keyboard and mouse, and that’s when I realized the lack of being able to right-click. I did notice that you could simulate the Delete key by pressing Fn+Backspace, but I couldn’t figure out for the life of me how to right-click.

If you don’t have a trackpad, but are still confined to a one-button mouse in Windows you should checkout the free Apple Mouse Utility (download mirror) written back in 2002.

The program says that it’s designed for Windows NT/9x, but I tested it in Vista and it works just fine.
