[QUOTE="awj, post: 1555544, member: 297516"] I can confirm that having installed Win8 from an ISO, then followed the instructions on [URL="http://kb.parallels.com/en/115815"]this page[/URL] to determine if the installation is using EFI or BIOS, it looks like Bootcamp has installed and boots Win8 using EFI. Certainly, the boot time is a LOT quicker than on a previous-gen MBP when I installed Win7 and then upgraded it to Win8 (which would then have been using BIOS). [/QUOTE]
