M mags631 Guest Jun 19, 2007 #2 I have Vista Ultimate installed on my MBP 2.4 -- I recommend XP Home. Why do you need XP Pro?
clevin macrumors G3 Jun 19, 2007 #3 xp is fine gaming, vista home is fine too, I supposed NVidia has updated their drivers?
jng macrumors 65816 Jun 19, 2007 #4 I also have Vista on my MBP and recommend XP, especially if it's just for gaming. Vista is pretty, but definitely not a better OS.

timswim78 macrumors 6502a Jun 19, 2007 #6 Just for gaming, go with XP. If you actually want to use Windows, go with Vista. It's a much better experience, in my opinion.
