[QUOTE="Noels, post: 704986, member: 49942"] mikepm07, If you install XP using the Mac Boot Camp program, you will get native XP speeds, so yes, it's decent for gaming with the MBP and the discreet graphics you have, and especially with a 2.5 CPU. Boot Camp is a Mac program that lets you import Windows into a Windows partition on your Macbook Pro. But before you try to install Windows, though, go to your Applications>Utilities> Boot Camp Assistant.app and open it. On the front page there is a button called Print Installation & Setup Guide. Print it and read it, use it when you install and everything should work fine. 4GB RAM would improve things, too... I can't attest to specific games, but do a little search here about games and I'm sure you find some info... Noel [/QUOTE]
