[QUOTE="Kinley, post: 565432, member: 45354"] How much RAM do you have in iMAC ? If 1GB at least, that should be fine for VMWare since XP runs quite ;) ok with 512MB once you turn off all the unnecessary effects. Of course if you have 2GB of RAM in iMac I would not even bother with bootcamp. On my macbook I have 1GB of ram and Win XP runs faster under VM than XP on my desktop - Celleron 2.4 GHz with 1GB of RAM, sATA so that should give you some brief of situation and efficiency. [/QUOTE]
