so ive never set up a dual boot enviroment, not to mention even installed osx, but im ready to take the leap. i want to have windows 7x64 as my main os (if there needs to be one), and snow leopard as my secondary. heres my rig:

 

 

 

intel i5-750 quad 2.66

 

asus p7p55d-e pro motherboard

 

4gb ddr3 ram

 

ati radeon 5850 gpu

 

750watt psu

 

500gb hdd

 

dvd drive (duh)

 

 

 

how would i go about installing things...

Well, about Snow Leopard and Core i5s...Hmm.. I don't think it works straightforeward, you're gonna have to look at a ton of forums, try the iAtkos S3 V2, then, when booting from the CD, Press F8 and type -v busratio=7 cpus=1.

 

You can stick with windows 7 being installed first, just make a partition for snow leopard on windows.

That will help you, and remember, google is your friend..most of the time..
