Chiddy22 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I'm new to the whole Dual boot/Virtualisation universe. I have SL installed on one HD and Win 7 installed on a separate HD. My ideal use for this machine would be to boot into OS X, and be able to run some important Windows Apps from there. But to also be able to boot into Windows 7. I'm under the impression that there is no way for me to boot into the same Windows install that i would be accessing from OS X via some sort of virtualisation? In either case, can anyone recommend 1) what sort of virtualisation I should go for? VMWare Fusion? Parallels? I'm new to this. 2) Anyone have any idea how much of a system upgrade I'd need to be able to run Adobe Creative Suite 5 applications on Windows while booted into OS X? I have a core i7-930 with 6 GB of DDR3 RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justin218 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 VMWare Fusion should just see your windows 7 hard drive as a boot camp partition and be able to boot straight into it okay. You have pretty good specs, it should run things fairly well... But I don't have much experience with adobe CS5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
