I would like to know if its possible to install Mac OS X on Windows XP using the Parallels for Windows. If so how. I am trying to install it using the FreeBSD as the Guest OS but as soon as Darwinx86 loads..... it freezes thanks
. It has been discussed on a number of occassions, and again just recently. You should yield plenty of results with a quick search. .
Thank you but what do i search for..... i tried all sort search terms .... cant find the one i need thanks
. All right then, the short answer is, no. OSX is coded to run on certain hardware, which does not include the virtual hardware Parallels employs. Honestly, Apple, straight jacket, I just don't see the difference. .
I don't see why it wouldn't work. Mac OS is designed to run under a somewhat specific set of hardware and instructions, but with the release of Mac OS for Intel (OSx86) I don't see why it wouldn't work as long as you were using the x86 version of Mac. Of course it would probably be more beneficial to simply install a dualboot of mac and windows on the machine. However, I can think of a few situations where you would want to be able to have them both running at the same time.
. No, unfortunately, it is just not possible. That 'ol Apple straight jacket, she's done up pretty tight. .
Thanks contant Well the reason i have asked is that i do get ACPI error... and yes due to the hardware i am using... .. but yes its possible to install with Vmware.. i have tried it.. I like parallels coz its faster than vmware... due to limited set of programs and memory usage ... Well i guess i will wait till parallels comesout with something better
