[QUOTE="hclincha, post: 278685, member: 19887"] Depending on what the program needs, you can get away with using either Darwine or CrossOver. Darwine can be a bit of a hazzle to use, CrossOver is much easier, but costs money. Parallels works great, even though it gives you some overhead 'cause of the extra OS. You should be able to use the XP SP1, but you'll have to make a new CD. [URL="http://www.theeldergeek.com/slipstreamed_xpsp2_cd.htm"]This[/URL] is what I could find on merging the CD with SP2. That requires a bit of mucking about on a windows computer though, but from the looks of it, there's no other way. [/QUOTE]
