Is it possible to use bootcamp after I installed xp under parallels ? I'm using a 2GHz MB. I wanted to play some games but it's not available for mac, so if it's possible, do I have to reinstall my xp? Or I can straight away install bootcamp? Thanks in advance.
 
Do you want to use bootcamp to one the windows you installed via parallels?
 
Well, not really I can use my "other" copy of XP. Oh but then I have two copies of XP. Is it possible to use just 1 copy of XP to run both parallels and bootcamp ?
 
Yeah. If you install XP through Boot Camp, you can then tell Parallels to start Windows from the Boot Camp partition.
 
Oh, the problem is I installed my XP through parallels, and now I want to add bootcamp to play some games. So do I have to reinstall my XP ?
 
yea, install it under bootcamp first then install parallels and you can pick the bootcamp install when you install parallels.
