    In a dual boot environ? Looking at your system, maybe not. Anyway, need dual boot BL help.

    Dont mean to cross post but most likely TP people have the TPM to best use so fig its more approriate to ask here rather than a person playing games on their NB. Thanks.

    No. I actually run ESX on a second T400 so no dual boot here. Virtualization technology is so good now the reasons to dual boot are few.

    It’s probably more of the case where this is off topic for this forum—and no one really cares about this esoteric use of BitLocker.

    Looking for answers of substance rather than your own commentary on reasons for asking.

    I run Bitlocker, W764. Runs great.

    For backward support of other OS's, I use VMWare 7, with XP, Vista and other OS's in VMs - basically previous development env support.

    Works fine.
