OK, so I finally bit the bullet and purchased the Parallels 4 student pack for my new MBP 2.4, 4gb ram. I have a bootcamp partition running XP sp3, and I use that to play games and work in MS Access. However, I noticed that when Parallels installs, it updates the video drivers. The problem is, I still want to be able to boot up in Boot Camp and play those games when needed (I have no plans to play them in a VM). Bottom line is, while I'm at school or in class, I need to be able to quickly switch into Windows while still in OS X, but when I game, I wanna boot up in Boot Camp. When I reboot into BootCamp, will I be able to use my Nvidia 9600GT? Or is it now going to be non-functional, or worse, crippled, because the Parallels drivers have overwritten them? Any help would be appreciated.
