    no you can't because the thing about mac is you can install windows on a mac machine using boot camp start up disk. but a os x does not work on the windows machine sorry

    I think he can run OSX86 on his computer. I'm not sure whether or not he can choose between two OSes like bootcamp or parallel. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSx86

    Hope it helps.

    Seems like the guy who helped you to install OSX doesn't want to tell us. So, should I open a new topic and ask forumers how to install that? If you all agreed, then I'll do what I've promised.
