Re: Using the same folders for OS and Win7
Does having half the ram/processors when running a VM slow things down quite a bit? I tried in with a customers imac, and was less than impressed with performance.
I'm wondering how to repartition the drive after bootcamp has been installed. Is there a way to do this, or do I have to redo windows?Desktop | i5 3570k @ 4.8GHz | 16GB Ripjaws | 2x 128GB Samsung 830 Raid 0 | GTX 670 @ ???/???? | 2408WFP |

Re: Using the same folders for OS and Win7
I was going to make the windows partition smaller. Is there a good partition program for OS X?

Re: Using the same folders for OS and Win7
use windows to make it happen. But you cant make the OSX partition larger without gparted.
I dont know any other option

Re: Using the same folders for OS and Win7
There is a program called Camptune which makes this very easy... for $19.95. I've used it.
Paragon Camptune for Mac® - Resize partitions in minutes
As far as I know, gparted can only shrink a HFS+ partition, not grow it.

Re: Using the same folders for OS and Win7
Ok great, I will see what I can do. Another question from a mac noob. How do I tell OSX to change its default documents/music/picture directory?
