bootcamp, parallels and windows xp question

Recently figured out how to get Unreal Tournament running 'right' using bootcamp and Windows XP on an intel iMac. OK, I'm a sentimental ol' fool, but I like the 'original' UT.


I have another intel iMac running windows xp (yes, a different, unique xp than is on the other intel imac) in Parallels and was wondering if I will run into any problems if I use bootcamp assistant to install the same copy of windows xp in bootcamp as is running in parallels; or if I will run into problems with microshaft.



Will probably try it later tonight, then if no problems play UT for a few hours.

The answer is yes.

Thanks fer the quick reply - I deleted Parallels and did a clean install of winderz in bootcamp. Everthin' is good.
