Phoenix 5.5 & iMac computer

[digdug]

Good morning to everyone I have a nine-year-old iMac computer and I also have phoenix 5.5 Sim does anyone have any thoughts on how I can make this work without having to buy another computer I am also running El Capitan with four gigs of RAM thank you in advance for any of your child have a great day .

Since Phoenix is a Windows program... it'd only work if you can run something like Parallels and install Windows onto it. That'd require you purchase both programs ( Parallels and Windows ).

I wonder how expensive that would be to buy windows & parallels .

 

[Tony]

$40 for Parallels and $100 for windows.

Thanks Tony what version of Windows do you think I would need And I was thinking about using boot camp instead of parallels trying to save all the money I can .

 

[Tony]

with a computer that old, I would just try to get ahold of a cheap version of XP. You may be able to get that for free if you look hard enough.

Do you think XP would work because I do have an old copy of XP.

You will need to make certain your computer is an Intel based computer first.... then read this How to install Windows using Boot Camp

I suspect an internet search ( with google or whatever search engine ) will provide you with more info on installing Windows on a Mac than what we ( as Windows users ) can tell you about
