Hi guys. The subject pretty much says it all. I decided last night to install
Windows on to Mac so I could use things like VST. However, when it got to the
point of partitioning my Hard Drive, I found that I could not in any way shape

Hi,
I think this is the administrator password for your Mac, which you set when you
first booted the machine. I haven't yet needed to upgrade my copy of VmWare,
so might stand to be corrected on that.
Hope this helps,

Hi Alex,
As I said, I recommend VmWare myself, but Bootcamp is standard on all 10.6
systems. I just think VmWare makes more sense because you will ultimately get
a working standard WIndows install, with the added benefit of being able to use
Mac software at the same time. More over, you won't
Hi Alex:
I may well get corrected on this. But, I thought that repairing permissions

What you might want to understand is that Bootcamp is, for all intents and
purposes, running Windows natively. All the Bootcamp Assistant does for you is
