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:

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.

Thanks for the info much appreciated.

So the game may not run well using Parrallels?

I really don't want to have to partition my drive just to run IL-2. I've had a mac now for 4 years and never needed to use a pc and I would hate to have to do that just for one game.
