[QUOTE="Nate55, post: 677791, member: 58969"] I currently have a new MBP 2.4Ghz 4gb ram, and im running Vista Ultimate 64 in Boot Camp and VMware Fusion. It says it doesn't support it, but in the forums I read the only problem is with activation which isnt a big deal cuz I have multiple licenses anyway. However, I have found that VMware is incredibly slow for Vista 64 bootcamp.. I usually run it with 2gb allocated for Vista under VMware Fusion and I have even tried 3gb, but it is still incredibly slow. I was wondering if Vista 32 would be better? I understand that when I run it from bootcamp I wont be able to use all my memory but being that it is 32bit i don't think it will need all of it. By biggest concern is speeding up VMware fusion. Specifically I would like to be able to play games through the Virtual Machine. Thanks, Nate [/QUOTE]
