I have Mountain Lion OS X installed, I wanted to add Windows 7 on this. What's the best way of doing this? Do I need 32 or 64 bit disc?

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

First of all, check if you need Boot Camp or a virtual machine > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3321


If you need Boot Camp, check if your Mac supports the 64-bit Windows version > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US If it's supported, use the 64-bit version because all the hardware will be detected and increases the performance if you have an Intel Core 2 Duo processor or newer.


If you need a virtual machine, open  > About this Mac, and check Processor. If it's an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5 or Intel Core i7, use the 64-bit Windows 7 version
