On my vacation time, I installed Windows 7 on my Apple MacBook Pro, and used Apple Bootcamp:
Apple - Support - Boot Camp
It is truly magic. I didn't do anything, just pointed and clicked a few things and that is it..

This might be a dumb question, but have you tried your video out while in Windows 7 native with a projector?
I never could get that to work in XP...I'm wondering if it works in Windows 7?

Seems like I tried both at some point, and spent quite a bit of time myself troubleshooting it, all to no avail.
Thanks though,

Probably go with another Dell though. -

Hyper-Me Banned Posts: 2,059Its called dual booting, news flash....Windows has done this for about 15 years.
At least you put windows on it though. Im getting a macbook pro for "testing" purposes at work here soon and it will be getting Windows 7 ASAP. -
JockVSJock Member Posts: 1,118I went the refurbished route, to save money, which is what I recommend to everyone...

I'll be clear with you here.
I gave you neg rep because what you said was unnecessarily provocative and added no value to the conversation. It was also somewhat callow, as is your follow-up comment.
On top of that, you totally misunderstood the comment that I put in the disapprove field. Multi-booting has been around much longer than any version of Windows, and definitely was around way before 1994-ish...
