OK, i'll help here but this isn't really vo related: 1. go into applications>utilities>bootcamp assistant. 2. follow the instructions to create a bootcamp partition for windows.3. Asuming you're familiar with windows unattended installs, create a answer file for your system of choice, that will not wipe the disk and that will install to disk0 partition 3. 4. Put in your unattended cd, startup the computer, and hold down the C key when you hear the apple chime sound. Press a key when the disk spins up and wate for windows to install. 5. ONce windows is installed, you will have no sound; so plug in some kind of plug and play USB audio device 6. Put in your snow leopard dvd (or the install disk that came with your mac). The bootcamp software install should appear
7. follow the instructions.8. Restart, and you're all done; update, activate, and install any required software
9. TO startup from the mac: 1. hold down option as the computer boots. 2. press enter for windows, or right and enter for the mac.3. to set mac as the default, go into the mac, in to system prefferences, and click startup disk. Select 'macintosh hd'
That's roughly how to do it. As this is not VO related, please contact me off list if you have any more questions.

Bubba <bubbathegeek@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi, I heard about this on another list and what I understand is it is from one of the virtual windows company and you are aloud to do this because you can't boot from boot camp and run the virtual windows at the same time. Or run the virtual window and boot from boot camp atthe same time. So some how it see it as one windows installed. I think itwas fusion but not sure.Sign, Bubba -----Original Message----- From: macvoiceover-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:macvoiceover-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of covici@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2010 4:41 PM To: macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [macvoiceover] Re: running Windows You could, but the activation won't work i.e. Microsoft may wonder that you have two different activations with the same product key.
