Windows Vista 64-bit version can use EFI, which could make the whole partitioning scheme easier?

giving up on Vista 64-bit now, damn non-free Vista... XP/MBR it is

  • start with new Macbook Pro (15", 2.6ghz, 200GB 7200rpm HDD, 4GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT/512MB)
  • made bootable rEFIt 0.11 disk
  • Install Boot-camp; Run the Boot Camp Assistant and create the Windows XP driver cd.
* Go into Applications/Utilities
* Open Boot Camp Assistant. Print out the Instructions.
* Partition the drive by using the graphical slider in the Assistant and Accept the changes. Insert the XP disk. Let it reboot your system. It will load up into the XP installer. Install XP. After it is all installed and setup and you are in Windows, put in your Leopard disk and the drivers will install for all the devices( mouse, mic, iSight, video, etc). You are done.
