[QUOTE="MarioMover, post: 1628795, member: 338894"] Hey guys :) A month or so ago I made a post about running the game [I]Sonic Generations[/I] on a Mac. I would now like to completely remove OS-X from my iMac. OS-X is awesome, but it doesn't have the support I'm looking for to play my games (Minecraft, Sonic Generations, Steam games, etc.). I would like to remove OS-X and install Windows Vista or 7. I am currently running Mac OS-X Tiger and have no way to update it to a newer OS. So Boot Camp is out of the question. I have tried CrossOver but the software just doesn't run what I'd like it to run, such as Steam and INVedit (Minecraft Inventory Editor). Also, I can only install via an ISO as I don't have any CDs or flash drives on me. I could care less which Windows version it is - as long as it is either Windows Vista or 7; in extreme cases, maybe XP. I do have a few DVDs though (but can I install Windows via an ISO burnt to a DVD?). Please remember I am stuck with OS-X 10.4.11 and no means of updating. I would simply like a way to install Windows Vista or 7 on my Mac and [possibly] get rid of OS-X. I have even tried running Win-7 via VirtualBox, that seemed to do nothing, and it wouldn't play sound. Here is the brief version of what I want to do: Install Windows Seven or Vista via ISO on an iMac running OS-X 10.4.11 (Tiger) and possibly get rid of OS-X. Thanks! MarioMover :) [/QUOTE]
