    Default Newbie Bootcampin'

    Hi guys,

    Recently bought a new MacBook Pro OS X Lion and Im looking to run the best game of all time on it via bootcamp!!
    Went to gamestop and got the gold edition on the cheap.

    Anyways
    I've been researching and pouring through google searches to find if M2:TW can run on Windows 7 and Im a bit confused. From looking around here it seems like it is certainly possible so my question would be what version of Windows 7 should I be looking to get? Im not sure if you guys will take kindly to a mac owner but its worth a shot because this game is just so goddamn good.

    Any help is appreciated, thank you

    I'm no expert on Macs, but this is one game that has run smoothly for me on various OS on several different PC's, so I wouldnt worry too much.

    Post this on the MTW2 Technical Help forum (it's the third line from the top). Works fine on any version of Windows 7. Best with at least 2 GB of RAM and at least a 512 Mb video card

    Windows 7 on a PC is 100% compatible with Medieval 2. I am not sure how it goes over with windows 7 on macs.
