Can I use the Window XP bundled with MS virtual PC in setting up boot camp?

Hi hi,
before having the new 24" iMac, I have MS office professional for Mac running on my 17" G5 iMac it. The bundle pack contains Window xp professional software running on Virtual pc program.
I want to install boot camp on my new intel mac but can i use the window xp program which is bundled with MS virtual pc software for setting up boot camp?
please advise.

Technically, so long as your bundled version is XP with service pack 2 then you should be able to use it.
Legally, no. When Windows comes with a PC, even a virtual PC, it's license is for an OEM installation. While it's still functionally the same as a copy you'd buy in the store its license is for use only with that PC it came with and no others.
Hope this helps! bill

    It would appear under the organizer tab that the photos are organised in the lowest folder in the folder structure within Windows Explorer.  How can I use the Windows Explorer structure to organise the photos within Elements.

    In a situation such as yours, I tend to consolidate items into folders so I have folders of nice workable numbers of images, somewhere between 20 and 200 images. Now, whatever, once you've imported, do your moving within LR, not the OS! I will select all in a folder and drag into a folder a level or two or three above, and then delete the newly empty subfolders. I hope this helps a bit!
    Once you've reached just new Imports of camera output, you'll be flying along.

  • Can i Use The Apple Wired Keyboard With Camera Connector Kit

    Can i Use The Apple Wired Keyboard With Camera Connector Kit

    People report it is still possible to use a wired USB keyboard with the CCK, if you use a powered USB hub to get around the "not enough power" error message.  (I have done this with an older Apple USB keyboard my non-jailbroken iPad1 on iOS 4.3.3.)  Normally, powered USB hubs have a AC power adapter so you lose portability unless you can find a battery powered USB hub.  At this point, the (in)convinience of the USB hub becomes an issue, depending on what you get.
    And wired USB keyboard were never supported for the iPad.  So there's no guarantee that it will continue to work with future iPad updates from Apple.  So best to go with a Bluetooth keyboard unless you have a specific USB keyboard that you "must" use.  If you have all the equipment already, I say give it a try.  But I would not recommend trying a USB keyboard if you have to purchase anything.

  • Hey Guys I Travel to the States and I am from Germany. I want to buy an iPhone 4S 8GB white Version unlocked GSM. Can I use the iPhone in Germany with every SIM Card?

    Hey Guys I Travel to the States and I am from Germany. I want to buy an iPhone 4S 8GB white Version unlocked GSM. Can I use the iPhone in Germany with every SIM Card?

    As long as you buy from an Apple retail Store (Apple owned ) an unlocked iPhone 4S it will work on GSM services worldwide
    from Apple.com
    If you buy a SIM-free iPhone, you will need to purchase a GSM-compatible micro-SIM separately. When you travel internationally, you can use a micro-SIM card for iPhone 4s from a local GSM carrier.
    The unlocked iPhone will not work with CDMA carriers such as Verizon Wireless or Sprint.
    However the warranty will NOT be valid outside the US .If you need warranty or post warranty service you will have to return the iPhone to the US in person ( cannot mail in to US )

  • Can I use the 40g/ipod charger with my ipad2?

    Can I use the 40g/ipod charger with my ipad2?

    Not the best idea, it'll overheat and could damage either the ipad or the charger. The iPad will be attempting to draw more wattage then the little charger is designed to put out.
    Here is a link for the proper one http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC359LL/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjA
    This would work for both :)

  • HT4628 I can not use the internal wireless card with my Mac pro 2012, I don't know if it is broken

    I can not use the internal wireless card with my Mac pro 2012, I don't know if it is broken. The problem is happen recently, I have to use an independent wireless card now. Thanks!

    When you enable Internet Sharing in OS X, you are creating a separate sub-net.
    There is no option to allow this to be a simple pass-through from Ethernet to AirPort (or the other way).
    The problem is easily solved by getting an inexpensive wireless router. You can replace your current router OR disable the DHCP server on the wireless router and allow the wireless clients to get an IP address from the current router.

    I don't want to spend the money on the HDMI connector and HDMI splitter if it won't work.

  • Can I use the old power supply with the new unit?

    I have a second generation Apple TV. When I install the new unit next week can I use the old power supply with the new one and the new power supply with the old one? This would save some messing with cords behind the units.

    Hello:
    I would definitely not try that.....  The power supplies may be compatible - or may not be compatible.  I think messing with cables is a small price to pay for not potentially frying a new device.

  • How can I use the MacBook Pro webcam with Windows XP apps under Parallel?

    Thank you in advance for your help with this matter.
    I have a MacBook Pro and I have just installed Parallel with Windows XP. I would like to use the webcam that comes with the laptop for applications that run under Windows XP (ex.: PalTalk).
    The application doesn't seen to recognize the camera. Do I have to load the drivers for this camera in XP? If so where can I find them and what is the process?
    Thank you again,
    Enrico

    You probably need to load the Boot Camp drivers that are on the Leopard DVD. Whether it works or not I can't say, but you may want to post your question on the Parallels forums, since it's not an Apple product, and if anyone has gotten it to work you'll find them over there.

  • Can I use the same nike+ sensor with two differet Ipods and register the trainings in onmly one account?

    Hello, I would like to know if I can use the same nike  Ipod sensor with two different ipods. I want to use the same sensor sometims with an Ipod touch and sometimes with an Ipod Nano, I want my trainings with both Ipods to be registered to the same account. I want them to be registered to only one account, not as it had been used by two different people.

    Of course. You should use the same AppleID on all your devices. Why would you create a new one?

  • For someone who can't use the windows installer cleanup utility.

    I have been an iTunes user for years and have usually updated to the newest version whenever prompted and have had very little trouble with the program despite always using PCs. However, I recently purchased an iPhone which is fun, but requires the newest iTunes.
    I tried to install the new version and received a message which many people have, which said "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable."
    I searched online and found the solution that said to use the Windows Cleanup Utility or whatever, however, my computer barred me from doing this for some reason. Even when I manually attempted to register with the Command Prompt window, I was unable to get the program to work. I tried to fix THIS part, but received another error message which directed me to format my computer, which I am unwilling to do at this time. I don't even want to lose my library but I'm kind of resigned to that at this time.
    So what I'm asking is, is there any other way to get this sorted out without the utility package? Any way to direct my computer to where itunes.msi would be on my computer? Is there anyway to fix this, seeing as it seems to be a recurring problem in the installation of this version? Thank you.

    +it's essentially telling me I'm not the administrator when not only am I, but I'm the ONLY user on this computer+
    Your sig says XPS. I assume that means XP. Your permissions must be corrupt in the registry, even though you are on an admin account. I got this same error when I upgraded my laptop to XP SP3. I had to run a tool from microsoft to fix it.
    Scroll down to the advanced troubleshooting section on this page and run the subinacl stuff. I went and watched a movie while it ran - just be patient.
