Jul 3, 2015 8:34 PM in response to Loner Tby Grandos,I am using OS X 10.10.4
Boot Camp 5.1
I am all up to date, but just confused with the statement apple makes. Since windows 8.1 uses 64 bit and perhaps my early 2088 can not use 64 bit, that might be the problem. At least that is what I suspect from the apple support list information. Just wonder why it would run under Parallel and not be supported under Boot Camp.
Worst case scenario I am using it with Parallel again, but it does not work 100% like a real windows.

So I guess I should be okay to run it.
I will just go ahead and do it and see what happens.
Nothing else on that computer, so I can always reformat and start all over again.
Thanks for the help
