I just installed Windows Vista Business Edition(got it free from somewhere ) and I am running it on my MacBook via Parallels Desktop 3170

If you have any questions regarding Vista on MacBook, you can ask me and I will try to answer it


P/S: What the heck I am doing with Windows? Mac OS X runs better than Vista frankly speaking Will remove Vista from my Mac OS X after getting all the disadvantages of Vista

I just saw Vista running on a MacBook Black in KLCC. Was in TechPeace. How smooth is Vista running with the Intel GMA950?

anyone know how to combine all partition back?
i got 3 partition now.. but i m using only the above one.. the below 2 i do not know how to delete and combine back till one..

coz i need to bootcamp window vista

it's running smoothly

in vista business... i'm sure u r turning ur aero interface off right ?

anything which doesnt work aside of the aero thingy ??

i'm planning to get parallel for vista

no...everything was turned on

Which macbook are u using?? Cn give us the spec.
Will it take a long time to load??

DO u think it'll be fine if Vista Home Premium is installed??

current spec:
Core 2 Duo 2.0Ghz
1GB RAM ( will upgrading to 2GB soon due to heavy graphics processing)
80GB HDD

time to load meaning load what?

Time for the OS to load completely before it can be used.

Better don't. Parallels is good for winxp atm. Why? Even you install vista, you won't have aero interface(it is because parallels currently don't support 3D acceleration), it is the same thing as winxp. Winxp smoother in parallels.

Anyway, if you want aero interface. Can, no problem. Just use bootcamp. Btw, just to let you know that Parallels is an emulator. So it will have a performance hit.

wow is there really going 2 be window vista in mac
cool
hw much would it cost

hmm... vista on bootcamp is coming out soon ??

yea... i'm worried bout my machine which is running hot sometimes when it's stressed too much on having 2 OS running at the same time... using parallel on xp btw = )

but if i'm using any bootcamp which support vista tat might come out in the future....
my gma950 can support the graphic hungry aero?

Frankly, i'm not so sure because i don't have real mac. From what i read (insanelymac forum), you can use the currently beta bootcamp to install vista. Just got some of the driver issue which is not compatible in vista.

1 question...

When are you going to delete the Vista? lol

cool dude..plan2get a macbook n test n also mayb install vista..huhu

LOL

erm...deleted

Lol....my Mac Mini has Vista Ultimate (bootcamp)
and the score is better than what i'm getting on my normal desktop PC...

Mac Mini scored 3.2
Desktop PC scored = 3.0

Ish....

Added on March 8, 2007, 3:16 pmI had that problem too and finally had to start from scratch...
Boot from Mac OS CD > used the Disk Utility and repartition all to 1 partition.
Then re-installed OS X and ran boot camp...

Sort of work now...
