Can I run XP AND Vista 64 with bootcamp?  Or does it only allow dual boot?

Hi Folks.
Reinstalling Bootcamp. Want to use Vista 64 for faster Mental Ray rendering on 3dsMax, but I still want to play games on XP. Can I do a triple boot install with Bootcamp?
If not can I do an XP install then do a dual boot within my Windows partition or will that confuse bootcamp?
Anyone had any luck with this?

Easiest if you install Vista first to a boot camp space that will be large enough to hold all the Windows OS's you want to use. After install, right click My Computer -> Manage: select Disk Management; you can shrink Boot Camp partition C, which leaves OS intact but allows another install to new D: "drive" created from shrink. Option key at start up allows boot for next install. You can control resulting Windows multiboot from System Properties->Advanced tab->Start and Recovery Setting.
Because Dos isn't there for FDisk at start up, in XP, I've done same with Diskpart.exe which is likely in \System32. Have not done this in Mac.

  • Can I use my 2TB WD My Book Essential for the Time Machine feature on the MacBook as well as two other Windows computers (one running 7 and one with Vista)?

    Can I use my 2TB WD My Book Essential for the Time Machine feature on the MacBook as well as to store information from two other Windows computers (one running 7 and one with Vista)?

    Yes you can but you need to partition the drive into at least 2 separate drives.
    To do that you need to use a Windows PC to do the first partitioning. Say you split the drive into two partitions each 1TB (or close to 1TB) each.
    Partition fand format both partitions on a Win PC as one NTFS and the other FAT32.
    Then move it to the Mac and Reformat the FAT32 partition Mac Extended (Journaled) with a GUID Partition Table.
    I have that same drive and that is what I did originally with it. I now have it just for the Mac as I have other externals for the Win systems.
    Good Luck.

    Alternatively, partition your internal HD and dual-boot it. Do note that you have to reboot to switch back and forth. You can't do it by logging out and back in.

  • Can I install Windows XP SP1 with Bootcamp on my new Mac Mini 2011 i7 ?

    Can I install Windows XP SP1 with Bootcamp on my new Mac Mini 2011 i7 ?

    Baiscally if your Mini came with Lion Pre-installed new then No you can't use XP.
    The Lion installed computers no longer support XP OR Vista via Apple's Boot Camp.
    For one thing Apple only supported XP with SP2 in order to install it on pre Lion computers.
    If the Mini had come pre-installed new with say 10.6 then you could have installed XP and still of been able to upgrade to Lion without any issues as you already have the drivers for XP installed. Lion only has the drivers for W7.

  • Can I run 2 different domains with same name but on 2 different machines?

    Yes you can. Make sure that domains configured to use different multicast address. WLS uses multicast for communications between nodes in domain.
              although your configuration will work, you could have troubles if you going to execute inter-domain calls between domains/servers with the same names.

  • How can I run a vi developed with 7 Express?

    How can I run a vi developed with LabView 7 Express on another machine ? Do runtime versions exist ?

    Apparently, you want to run it on a machine that does not have LabVIEW installed.
    To make a standalone executable of your LabVIEW program, you need to have the Application builder (included in LabVIEW professional and higher, avaliable as an add-on for base and full).
    To run the application, the target system need to have the LabVIEW 7.0 runtime installed (available as a free download).
    There is also the LabVIEW Player. In this case you need to digitally sign your VIs and there are a few limitations. It is meant for for sharing code ideas and is not a viable substitute for the appl
    ication builder.
    Of course you could also get a second copy of LabVIEW.
    Some other options that would work in a very narrow set of situations: Read your LabVIEW license agreement. Under certain conditions you are allowed to install a second copy of LabVIEW on your home computer. If this is for personal educational use only and you qualify, you could also buy the LabVIEW student edition.
    LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .

  • HT1199 Can  I run iTunes and Apps on my Windows 7 computer or do I need an ipad or iphone ?

    Can I run ITunes and Apps on my Windows7 computer. So  far the one App I have downloaded just won't run. Do I need an iPad or IPhone to run these programmes?

    There is an iTunes on the idevices, just a Store effectvily.
    There is an iTunes on a PC and Mac, which is the Library handler, and connects to the iDevices for sync and backup.
    The Apps that you download for iDevices are downloaded with "Appstore" on that iDevice itself, or downloaded on the Mac or PC with iTunes for transferring to the iDevice.
    That apps will only run on the iDevice.
    For Window s7 and Windows 8 there has just been released a new iTunes version 11.

  • I have an iMac running Lion and W7 with boot camp . It has been operating flawlessly until I went to reboot into Mac tonight. Screen went black, and system is unresponsive. I've tried force quitting and turning power off. Hard drive starts but that's it..

    I have a 5 month old  iMac running Lion and W7 with the latest version of boot camp . It has been operating flawlessly until I went to reboot into Mac tonight. Screen went black, and system is unresponsive. I've tried force quitting and turning power off. Hard drive starts, there's a small amount of drive activity and that's it. 

    Hi Jane, your info may still be there, look in the Users folder at root of the drive, how many users are there there?
    It sounds like this may have happened...

  • Can we run SCC7 and BDLS in parallel?

    Hi Folks,
    We are creating a new R3 system which is a copy of a large production system. There is a requirement for running BDLS to change the logical system name. Since the source system is a huge one, SCC7 and BDLS take a long time to get completed. So, just to save time in delivering the system to the customers, can we run SCC7 and BDLS simultaneously? If not, why?
    Thanks
    Ranga

    Hello,
    Is there any connection between the two? - Of course
    SCC7 is 'Post client copy processing' - which is a part of Client copy
    BDLS is logical system conversion to be done after Client copy
    Until n unless you are not finished with Client copy why would you want to convert logical systems ?
    I would say, you please go through some BDLS SAP Notes to get the concept first - as why we need to run BDLS.
    Thanks

  • I do not have Elements.  Can I run Premier alone or with Photoshop 6 or CC

    A simple question, I do not have Elements and want to learn video.  Can I run Premier alone or with Photoshop 6 or CC?
    Thank for you help.
    Roy

    roy
    I am not clear how you want to carry out your plan to learn video.
    The Elements programs are Photoshop Elements (photo editor) and Premiere Elements (video editor). They are standalone products, and each comes with an Elements Organizer. When the same version for each of these programs is on that same computer, they share a common Elements Organizer catalog.
    When you have the same version Photoshop Elements as Premiere Elements on the same computer, there are some "integration" perks that come with that type of arrangement. I do not believe that Premiere Elements and Photoshop CS6 or CC will provide for these inegration perks.
    If you plan on going with Photoshop CS6 or CC (photo editing), why not learn your video on Premiere Pro CS6 or CC. These days these Pro versions can be looked at on a monthly basis with a small subscription. You can inquire with Adobe Sales on that type of detail.
    Avoid buying until after you have looked at the free tryouts to make sure the program is compatible with your computer environment and meets your video editing needs.
    Please consider.

  • Can i run games for windows in bootcamp?

    so can i run games for windows in bootcamp? and will they work properly?
    thanks a lot!!
    i'm sorry, i posted it here...it should be in "using OS X"...
    Message was edited by: Nord1989

    Well I'm not to sure by what you mean "Which games run on Mac". There are not many that run on Mac that are that great although there are a few. Mostly for any great games you would need to run Boot Camp. Keep in mind though that you still need a version of Windows, so if you don't have one laying around somewhere you still have to buy that. Here is a link for your Mac games.

    If you are wondering about Windows games that you may be looking for I only currently have Left 4 Dead which I have to say is an amazing game! I really don't have many games so I can't help to much in good ones.

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, I can't run Mail and Safari at the same time.
    Either Mail will crash or the iMac will run so slowly as to be unusable. With both running, the HDD spins constantly at a high rate of speed.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.

    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.
