Hello,

I got Mac OSX Snow Leopard installed on a second hard drive of my pc. So my first hard drive is a Windows and the Second hard drive is Snow leopard. Both are installed on the pc.

I can select which OS to boot on startup by entering bios.

In windows, I can't view any OSX hard drive even if it is installed, which I believe is normal. But in Mac OSX, I can view windows hard drive like local disc c and d with all programs stored on windows viewable.

Question is, since Snow leopard (secondary hard drive) can readily read my primary hard drive (Windows), is it dangerous if I install programs on my OSX like Xcode? Will they run across to Windows hard drive and make changes in secret during installation or during program use?

Thanks

Hi guys,

I have a Asus G73JH gaming laptop, and from some of the post here, it has been successfully made into a Hackintosh quite a few times.
The specs are: i7 720QM with 8GB RAM and ATI Mobility Radeon 5870.

Here are links from oldest to newest that I followed:

My question is, I don't want to wipe Windows 7 clean. My plan is to install Hackintosh on an external hard drive (USB Hard drive of 1TB). This means that if I don't plug in my external USB hard drive, then my laptop boots regularly into Windows 7. But if I plug in my external hard drive and start my laptop, it gives me an option to boot into Hackintosh.

I want to know is this possible, (I have heard that it is from some sites), but I also want to know will performance be hindered if not installed on internal hard drive?

My second question, some of the older tutorials recommend that I set a maxmem limit to 4096 in Empire EFI if my RAM is above 4GB. Is this still needed?
