Win 64 in a macbook pro


Recommended Posts

I just bought a 17" MBP the day before yesterday and they are currently 32 bit systems, although the sales guy thought 64 bit versions would be coming out soon. He also said you had to install 32 bit Windows. I believe only XP (SP2) and Vista are the only ones you can run with Bootcamp right now.

Looks like Bootcamp might not support Vista yet. From the BootCamp site:

 

"A full, single-disc version of Windows XP Home Edition or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later"

 

I beleive both Parallels and WMware Fusion support more OS types. I installed VMware as it allowed me to use my bootcamp install.
