Live 6 - Boot Camp question / advice

Post by tracmaster23 » Tue Apr 03, 2007 5:07 pm

I need to install Live 6 on my Mac under Windows XP using Boot Camp for the purpose of using my PC VST Plug-Ins while I am away.

Does anyone know if there is a minimum size the XP partition should be to keep Live's performance from being affected. I really will only be tracking out songs using sample loops and virtual instruments. No recording will be done.

Any advice?
