The Bundok Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Okay, so I've read about the procedures for doing a boot-camp re-partition after Snow Leopard already been installed and been living on your mac a while, but I'm buying a new internal hard drive and Im curious as to whether or not there's a better way to install both from the get-go since I'll be doing a fresh install. The other question I have is in regards to Windows 7's compatibility with my machine. I have a Late 2006-Mid 2007 model MacBook Pro (Machine ID: MacBookPro2,1; Model #: A1212) with ATI Mobility Radeon X1600, 3GB Ram and the 2.33 Core 2 Duo "Merom" chip (64-bit) and yet my machine doesn't show up on Apple's Windows 7 Supported list or their Vista Supported list. Am I SOL in this department or is there a workaround? What's preventing me from installing Vista or preferably Windows when both my chip and the OS's are based on 64-bit tech? My biggest reason for wanting Vista or 7 is DirectX 10+ and gaming, don't know if that complicates anything, but there it is. Any help, opinions or suggestions (minus ridicule) will be welcome. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
