As far as I know there is no way to run xp progammes at decent performance,
without partitioning your drive & installing XP.

I started using bootcamp,
& now use refit:
http://refit.sourceforge.net/

Also, if I attempt to use openGL il-2 locks up.
so I'm using directx for graphics

I've never run "original IL-2" onthe mac,
but I did try Pacific Fighters,
& pre-patch clean install had my graphics upside down.
It's been a while, but I think the problem went away when I sintalled all the patches.

Note:
Bootcamp & Parrallels ARE NOT EMULATORS,
XP runs on Intel Macs natively.
