But will it work with XP 64-bit ? I just installed XP 64 in Boot camp on my Macbook white mid 2010. The install was a real pain. I first tried to install Win 7 for four days to no avail. Managed to install XP64 in one long day. It runs twice as fast as XP 32 but there are no drivers anywhere! Shame on you, Apple! So now I wonder if your one GB download is worth it..? This looks good! But will it work with XP 64-bit ?

Installing drivers while I write with Windows 7 x64.

go to the run box and type in cmd, now instead of hitting the Enter key, use Ctrl+Shift + Enter to up a command prompt in Administrator mode.

But that's simply how windows installs a 64 bit system. It has nothing to do with it being on a mac. One program files folder will house the 64 bit programs and the other (x86) will house the 32 programs (which will be most of them still). @Naveen

It all went smoothly (Thank you very much by the way!!) but since then my Snow Leopard partition lags very often and stops responding for several munutes before come back to normal. Did you experience something similar? I could really use some advice,thanks a lot in advance! hello!
