    Use "Boot Camp" load Windows on the lappy , install EFIlive .

    Welcome to the forum LMMpioneer932. As you've probably guessed by now, EFILive is not compatible with a MAC OS. As tunedbyGM suggested, you will need to either install Windoze or run an emulator so you can run Windoze on your MAC, then install EFILive.

    EFILive only works on Windows. Bootcamp works on the new intel based Macs and allows you to dual boot your machine to either Windows or MAC OS. I beleive it's a 3rd party product. You purchase bootcamp and you also have to purchase Windows from MS.

    If you have a newer Mac-Intel-osh it is already there .

    My recommendation: DON'T use bootcamp! pay the extra $$ for parrallels. Parrallels works MUCH better. It's very similar to VMWare on the PC's and doesn't require a reboot to go from mac OS to Windows or vice versa.
