(staff i made this thread coz u guyz said i did to much posting on threads)

everthing went well installation windows vista ultimate 64bit until the drivers came up. So i went and bought a snow leopard upgrade disk. I Installed and checked if it was 10.6.3 IT WAS (AMAZING RITE?) so i booted into windows and went to install the drivers BUT it said bootcamp x64 not supported on this model? by model do they mean computer or mac osx? could it be tht i already made the windows partition from leopard and i need to reinstall the windows again from snow leopard? W8 and um do u guzy know how to check wat version bootcamp from the mac side?

Not sure about your machine specs. Don't remember them from the other thread. Does this article answer your question? Boot Camp: Macs that work with 64-bit editions of Microsoft Windows Vista and Windows 7

From memory your iMac was about 2007 model which means it is 32 bit and that is the version Windows you should install.
