[QUOTE="Samd23, post: 1924539, member: 416436"] Hi Jake, thanks for the welcome. I do need to keep High Sierra for various reasons. I have used Parallels in the past and it works pretty well, but not do only do I resent having to pay their exorbitant subscription fees but it also uses a graphics emulator rather than running the on board graphics card natively (I think that is the right word) so it is somewhat lacking in that regard. In my experience all of the virtual machine type solutions are unable to take full advantage of the chipset, graphics card or installed memory so they won't run the things I want that would run if I could get windows to run natively in its own partition. I appreciate your input though. Enjoy the rest of your day. SamD23 [/QUOTE]
