So I have a 24" iMac with 2g of RAM and I'm gonna try out bootcamp for the first time this weekend. I printed up the bootcamp manual from apple and im lookin through it and I'm tryin to figure out what the best route is to do it with that i have.
I will pretty much use bootcamp just to game and to utilize fraps so i can record and then i will edit my videos on my mac side. From what I can gather I will then need to make my windows partition to be 32gigs at most and be a FAT partition so as for my mac to read and write on the windows partition. It said if i go over this size it will have to be NTFS which won't work for shooting files back and forth over OSs.
Also, the manual said I can't use Vista unless I have 2gigs of RAM which I have but it also says I need a Mac Pro which i don't have. So I guess I will have to buy XP assuredly.
Is there anything I should know or look out for or any red flags i should be made aware of beforehand prior to doing this?
