The topic in itself is a surprising element to many users till this date as they wonder as to how it is possible to run Windows on Mac. To be precise, that is not possible in the general way, but in the year 2009, just after the launch of Intel-based Mac, Apple launched special software known as Boot Camp Assistant to enable Mac users to experience the interface of Windows on Mac. The tool shrewdly creates partition of internal drive to provide a portion to Windows to run and keep the rest of it to support Mac, thereby running both of them at the same time. With the press of one button only, you can toggle between the two interfaces easily and swiftly. Now, we will guide you how to install Windows 10/8/7 on Mac os with Boot Camp Assistant.

Check the RAM, CPU, and processor configurations to get the brief idea about the venture you are about to take. If your Mac is not upgraded to the expected benchmark, then you better give in to Windows OS version with lower system requirements.

Part 2: Mac must have Enough Hard Disk Space

To do that, again go to "About this Mac" from "Apple" icon from the taskbar atop the screen. Click on "Storage" option which will show you the free space available already on your hard drive.
