[QUOTE="$1()()0N$, post: 718932, member: 40620"] Hey, i have owned my Mac now for about 8 months and have only recently been wanting to play some demanding windows games, i just had a few questions regarding bootcamp. 1) I have read that when the bootcamp partition is formatted in NTFS it is read-only by OSX, a way round this is to format it in Fat-32. Are there any issues that could arrise by using the fat-32 format? 2) i currently am running parrallels desktop for Cad software, i wanted to know whether parallels and bootcamp can be run independently with two seperate copies of windows. i know that parrallels can be used to control the bootcamp partition but that involves using the same install of windows. can i have OSX and then windows on parrallels and windows on bootcamp intalled without any problems? 3) Can the bootcamp install effect my mac partition?
