I'm a windows user and is using windows since childhood !!
Now,being a techy user on these forums made me inclined to install Macintosh on my Acer 5738G which actually came out with pre-installed Windows 7 !!

But i want Macintosh to install (or if dual boot with windows is possible) but is unable to do it as don't know the procedure...!!

I'm having a dmg file [snowleopard_10a432_userdvd.dmg] of the Mac OS ( approx 6 GB) !! But can't read it on Windows..!!
I want it to install using USB Drive (as my DVD drive is not working)...!!

So,anyone help me out ...


My Laptop Specification is :
Intel Core 2 Duo processor T6600

Hey,
I'm pretty new to it as well but I can answer one of your questions.

To mount the .DMG in windows 7 get TransMac.
It's a paid program but you get a trial.

This will allow you to open what is really in that file and mount it to a usb flash drive that you can use in place of install dvd

As for how to do without a cd/dvd drive of anykind...
I was looking for an answer for this recently as well and didn't find a way to use iBoot from usb.
All you need though is a cd burner/reader b/c iboot is small and can go on a cd.
