Hello everyone,
I own a genuine full installation WINDOWS VISTA and a genuine upgrade to WINDOWS 7. I would like to install these (i.e. install Windows Vista and then upgrade it to Windows 7) on a MacBookPro with OSX Lion 10.7.3 and Boot Camp 4.0.1. Is it possible????
Thanx.

Unfortunately it didn't work.
While running boot camp I got a message saying that I should backup all my files and then format my hard drive as a "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". But my hard drive is already formatted as a "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".
Any ideas???
Thanx
