Hi Kawal, That sounds, well, precisely like what I tried to do. How strange and frustrating that it worked for you and not for me. I recall reading something on this list about boot camp and OS X versions over 10.6.4, but cannot for the life of me remember what it was. Might anybody be able to enlighten me? My OS X DVD appears to have 10.6.4… Best, Zack. On Jun 26, 2011, at 11:32 AM, Kawal Gucukoglu wrote:
