[QUOTE="Katana24, post: 1180653, member: 174731"] This may not be the correct place for this thread but oh well! I just recently used Bootcamp to install WindowsXP onto my 15 inch Macbook Pro. Windows runs fine and I even installed Command & Conquer Tiberium Wars; which also worked fine the first time I played it. But each successive time inserting the C&C disk and clicking play causes the dreaded Windows blue-screen of death to rear its ugly head. Three things: 1) What are other people's experiences with playing games on Bootcamp (I ask this because I want an up-to-date experience, I googled it and mostly got threads from 2006!) 2) Im using the standard settings for the games but does this mean that the currently running graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce 9400M) doesn't cut it? Should I be running the game using the second graphics card - a NVIDIA 9600M GT? 3) Was I a fool to install windows for the sole purpose of gaming? :O Cheers [/QUOTE]
