Hey just to let you all know. I took a gamble with Topscore on my mac.

If you have Parallels on you mac, topscore WILL work. I have parallels and Windows 7, and well topscore works like a champion.

can you please elaborate on this...

I have a MacBook Pro and really want to get Topscore but I don't know how to make it work. I'm not very computer savvy so I don't know what "parallels" are or how to put Windows 7 on my computer.

Thanks! 🙂

Parallels is a program that basically allows you to run windows on your computer. This is an expensive route to go! Parallels will probably run you about $50-75. (I got mine for free through my university). And no telling how much a liscense for windows will cost. (I would say probably $125-174 I was about to get mine for free too). But realize that just getting parallels WILL NOT work, you MUST get windows. Once you install windows and parallels you can open the program, and a window will pop up that mimics a PC. If you order TopScore using windows it will work!

I have heard rumors that it does. But the only thing I know is parallels works for me! (parallels 6 that is)

Wow! ok, lol. In this day and age having a Mac shouldn't be a problem 😡. Maybe I'll just borrow my roommates computer the week before my exam. Thanks anyway!

A great freeware version of Parallels is Sun Microsystem's VirtualBox. I used it myself for installing Topscore, and it worked like a charm. Plus, it let me switch quickly between my Mac (where I keep my files) and the PC running in the background.

Bootcamp on my Macbook Pro does work with topscore . I took a gamble and it worked perfectly. You need to install Windows though. I installed windows 7 on mine

After downloading virtual box from sunmicrosystems (now part of oracle's products), how do you get the program to run topscore?
