I was offering that up as food for thought, because I suspect a decent number of Mac users who want to have Windows installed might arrive at the same conclusion - and want to use the extra disk space and RAM/CPU cycles for running Mac apps. There just weren't any features it offered above and beyond XP that justified the tradeoff. I used it primarily for games and the occasional windows office app that wasn't on the mac - both in virtualization and also via bootcamp.

I ran it on my Macbook Pro for 3 months and I really couldn't justify taking the extra disk space and RAM that it required.
#MACBOOK PRO 2008 MOTHERBOARD INSTALL#
When I first wanted to install Windows on my MBP, I bought Vista from my University for 20$. I am curious, what advantages are there for running Vista? What features of Vista do you use that makes it better than XP for you? This statement just shows ignorance of Vista if you can't think of any reason to prefer it over XP, largely invalidating your opinion on the subject.Īnd this comment lends credibility to your argument? Assertion of my "ignorance" aside. The only solution is to shut down Vista and restart. Vista 64, whether native or in a VM, also has a habit of making my hard drive thrash indefinitely - where indefinitely means "I can leave the machine for 2 days and come back and find it still thrashing." Disabling SuperFetch reduces the incidence of this (it ALWAYS happens with SuperFetch on), but it still happens from time to time with no pattern I can deduce. My experience with Vista 64 on a 6GB MBP is that performance is quite acceptable once the VM has been running for awhile, but in the first few operations after booting the VM, it's terrible - much worse than if I boot Vista 64 natively using Boot Camp. Are you assigning so much memory to the VM that you're strangling OS X? If QuickTime Player is taking 6 seconds to launch in OS X on a modern Mac, something's wrong. Happy to run other comparisons too if you can think of any. What's a better test case? I can launch Windows Media Player quicker than Quick Time too (2 seconds for Media Player, 6 seconds for Quick Time). PS: I have an 8-core, 3.2GHz Mac Pro w/8800GT that plays games flawlessly under XP, don't have Vista64 installed on it. Crysis 64bit simply won't run (haven't tried latest patch)Īnd a few more, haven't played much in the last couple of months though, been very busy at work. F.E.A.R runs great for 5 minutes, the starts stuttering (LAN server, nobody else having issues) Running more than two EVE clients results in hard lockup (requiring removing power)

Mostly out of curiosity, what kind of video card/etc are you using? I'm wondering if some vendors just have more mature 64 bit drivers than others.

My Vista64 is on a dedicated gaming PC though, so I can't speak for Apple's bootcamp drivers. I suspect the differences being in the maturity of which drivers you're using (mine are all up to date). Video out (mini-DVI) this allows for maximum resolution of 1920×1200 for 2 nd display support either dual or mirroring your built-in 15.It's all anecdotal, I have Vista64 and have numerous gaming issues that I don't have on the same hardware with XP32.
