[QUOTE="Wilkesy91, post: 1793046, member: 399309"] Basically my dads windows laptop packed in so I ripped the hard drive out and managed to use his hard drive and make it into an external drive so I can run his windows that way. Is there a way I can just drag his entire windows drive on to my macbook pros drive and make it useable that way so I dont have to keep plugging the external drive in? Is it just as simple is making a windows partition using disk utilities and then drag every single file from the windows hard drive my new partition and bam will windows work that way so its on my macbook then so I can just keep changing operating systems when needs be? or do I have to something else too to make it compatible? Do I have to duplicate his drive somehow on to my macbook? cheers. [/QUOTE]
