I'm running on an intel core 2 duo and want to install windows 7. Any reliable way to go about this?

    There are free alternatives as well. You can get Grub for instance, which is a very good (And very free) bootloader.

    Why bother? There's no need. Just use Apple Bootcamp. Does the job.

    Oh oops, thought you had to pay for it. I'm thinking about Parallels.

    Yeah, you have to "pay" for Parallels or VMWare Fusion.

    If you plan on installing windows 7, Make shure your mac system is ligit 10.6 as you need the osx disk to install the windows 7 drivers,

    10.5.6 disks wont have 7 drivers
  • RioterRioter
    Er, OS X 10.6 disks don't have the Windows 7 Drivers either. They'll have the Vista drivers, but for 7 you've got to install Vista drivers (bootcamp 3) then download the 350MB windows 7 drivers bundle (bootcamp 3.1)

    Facts laid out for your (dis)pleasure

    Oh yea I forgot, Stupid me, I think my boot camp driver updated the same day
