If you are installing a 32bit Window 7 in the BootCamp, 4GB is enough since 32bit can only supported up to 3.5 GB ram while a 64 bit a Window 7 can support more above 4GB. Technically, 64 bit environment are much better in terms of speed and more ram are better for multitasking, applications speed and UI performance.

I encountered this problem while downloading using my friend Macbook Pro, I found out that whenever the MacOSX falls into sleep mode the dowloading will stalled and not able to continue. Not sure this apply to the same problem you encountering but try off the sleep mode to "never" and retry downloading again.

I'm currently using the 2011 line iMac (specs below)

Recently I've installed a Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit on my iMac via Boot Camp.
Everything runs fine after boot camp driver installation, except the Blue Screen Crash.
It happens almost all the time on Windows 7, and the error that I recall appeared on the Bsod is 'PAGE_FAULT_NON_PAGE_' something like that.

I was wondering if anyone have a solution for this matter.

Are you using a Genuine Copy of windows smile.gif

Hi All,

I am asking this on behalf of my sister who just got a new MacBook Air 13 with i7 and 8gb RAM.

She need Windows because some of her business software run on Windows. Besides that, she prefer Office 2010 over Pages, Numbers and Keynote.

Questions:
1. VMWare Fusion vs Parallel Desktop - which is more convenient?
2. BootCamp or not? - I understand that we can just install Fusion and then install Windows 7 into it.
3. Windows 7 64-bit, Microsoft Office 2010 and some software - how much space we need for the NTFS partition?
4. Office 2011 on Mac and Office 2010, exactly the same? Anyone used before? If same, I'd recommend her to use the Mac version instead of the Windows version.

1. VMWare Fusion vs Parallel Desktop - which is more convenient?
For me i feel the same.

2. BootCamp or not? - I understand that we can just install Fusion and then install Windows 7 into it.
I use bootcamp for full force.

3. Windows 7 64-bit, Microsoft Office 2010 and some software - how much space we need for the NTFS partition?
My bootcamp is 30GB.

4. Office 2011 on Mac and Office 2010, exactly the same? Anyone used before? If same, I'd recommend her to use the Mac version instead of the Windows version.
Not same UI. I love Windows version more than Mac version. tongue.gif

OK, I get you now. My office colleague also tell me to use Bootcamp, I didn't want to at first but sometimes we need a full Windows environment rather than a VM. smile.gif

which mac model are you using? I am still keeping the downloaded WindowsSupport setup for windows. Anyway you guys can always skip to download the WindowsSupport setup if you already opted that. Just click to setup when booted into windows.

p/s: pm me to share the setup with you if your model is found to be same as mine smile.gif
