I see that Cross Over will not work in this case so I plan to use Vista. I feel I am moving into a scary world of which I know nothing - can anyone point me to the least painful solution please? 2010-07-19T14:23:15+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/435#1923 Douglas Cheney info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Mark you have 4 options; 1) Run Windows under Boot Camp, help can be found here http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ 2) Run it on Parallels. 3) Run it on VMware Fusion. 4) run it on Virtual Box which is a free program. I run XP on VMware fusion and it works quite well for what I need it for 2010-07-19T20:46:22+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/435#1925 Mark Ford info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Thanks Doug - can I ask what you use it for? Has anyone any ideas about the best of these 4 options? 2010-07-19T23:17:01+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/435#1926 Mick Burrell info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ I don't use Windows Mark so can't comment on the options but make sure you have all the anti-virus, malware software that you would if it was a stand alone Windows machine. The version of Windows you run will not be immune just because it's running on a Mac.
