[QUOTE="tamaras82, post: 1388325, member: 234875"] I'm trying to install Windows on Boot Camp of my Mac mini 2.3GHz Intel Core i5 2GB RAM 500GB HD OS X Lion 10.7.3. I purchased a license of Windows 7 Ultimate and received the license and a CD. I tried to install it twice unsuccessfully, and then I realized the CD contains,not the ISO file, but the bootable disc, which is not what I need.:\ So I have been searching online to see where I can download the ISO image file, and I downloaded "Windows 7 Ultimate x86 SP1 ISO X17-24394.iso (bootable)" from here [url=http://www.mytechguide.org/10042/windows-7-service-pack-sp1-official-digitalriver-download/]Windows 7 With Service Pack 1 Direct Download Links [Official DigitalRiver][/url] What I need to know is if this one is okay (is it the "Windows 7 ISO image" which Boot Camp Assistant says I needs?), or do I have to find another one that does not include the SP1? Also, if I go ahead and install Windows 7 with bootcamp, and decide to buy VMWare Fusion (which I understand works with the bootcamp partition) in a few days, will I have to re-intall it again when installing VMWare Fusion? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
