Fallout:New Vegas on my Macbook Pro

Post » Tue Jul 07, 2009 3:00 pm

Hey guys! I know it's possible to do it but I just don't know how. I know if I wanted a gaming laptop I wouldn't have gotten this but I love it and I was wondering if I could get the best of both world. Macs AND gaming. I can get Windows 7 from so I am not worried about that. Any help would be appreciated! And nobody start a Mac vs. PC topic. Thanks!

Hmmm. If you put windows 7 on it I see no real problem. As long as you have a suitable processor, graphics card, and ram. Which I do not, and that's why I have to run the game lowest resolution and I lag like a [censored] :sadvaultboy:

You might be able to run bootcamp Win 7 and run it at medium level. Mine works ok, but not as good as running on the desktop (I have Phenom II X4 940 + GTX 460 run at Ultra).
