Installing boot camp on Mac?

[Big Boss Man]

Was wondering how easy this is to do. Have a older Mac with Snow Leopard on and read you can install Windows XP and dual boot between the two OSes. Don't think I have a retail XP disc though so I'm assuming you can't export the OEM license and use that to activate?. Main reason to install XP is to play some older PC games I have and other software that don't run on Win10 even under compatability mode and aren't old enough to run under DOSbox.

It's very easy. Boot Camp Assistant is located in the Utilities folder, which will help you reallocate existing space on your hard drive into a new partition for Windows. Pop in a Windows install disc and it'll take care of the rest. It's easy to reverse too, if you ever need to uninstall Windows.

If you're running XP, maybe just grab a bootleg? Otherwise, there should be some way to use that OEM license, but I don't have any experience with that.

Thanks. Unfortunately I found that OEM licenses are linked to the computer they are installed on and can't be transferred. But say I found a copy of XP in a thrift store etc would I be able to use that license or would it already be activated?.
