    Windows 7 activators/loaders on Apple iMac (EFI)

    Hi guys,

    Is there any option/success to run these win7 activators on imac?
    There is no bios in there and EFI does not have SLIC.

    There is also problem with GRUB in all loaders (it simply hangs after Starting MS-DOS ...).

    Help!

    Doesn't Boot Camp take care of all the BIOS emulation??

    I have a unibody Macbook Pro and used Hazar's activator and it successfully activated Windows 7. However, right after I boot Windows 7, I'm stuck at the black screen with the blinking white cursor for about a minute before Windows actually starts. I had the same problem when it came to other similar activators for both 7 and vista, so I guess it's normal.

    It does, but it shows no infor about SLIC in ACPI tables.
    And when u want to boot with grub loades it simply hangs on "Starting MS-DOS".
