Install iATKOS on a New Partition

• 1). Install Windows Vista if you haven't already.
  
  
• 2). Type "Disk Management" in the Start menu search box. The Disk Management window will open.
  
  
• 3). Right-click the C drive and select "Shrink volume." The "Shrink C:" window will open.
  
  
• 4). Enter "5000" in the box marked "Enter the amount of space to shrink in MB:". Click "Shrink." This creates a new volume, which the window marks as "unallocated."

• 6). Press the F8 key before the countdown reaches "0."
  
  
• 7). Type "-v". Press "Enter." Text will scroll down the screen as the installer loads.

Configuring for Dual Boot

• 1). Insert the DVD again, but do not run it. Open the DVD from My Computer. Copy the file "chain0" into the C directory.
  
  
• 2). Type "cmd.exe" in the Start menu search bar to open command prompt. Enter the following commands:
  
  bcdedit /copy {current} /d "Mac OS X"
  
  bcdedit /enum active
  
  The window will return text that includes, among other things, the words "MAC OS X" and a string of numbers and letters.
  
  
• 3). Type the following, replacing "[string]" with that string:
  
  bcdedit /set [string] PATH \chain0
  
  Restart your computer.
  
  
• 4). When the computer starts up, do nothing to load Vista.
  
  
• 5). To load Mac OS X, select it from the boot screen. When the countdown timer completes, press "F8" and choose your new partition.
