Like run whatever is already there but haven't been touched due to laptop not working properly? So technically bring back the PC and run windows on Mac and play games?

    Clearly some kind of nanite-based, advanced forum AI..

    Possible, yes; so long as you have an Intel-based Mac and emulation/API hooking/virtualization software, and the know-how to get it working. Though you might want to head to a Mac forum to ask about the specifics of that; the majority of NS players can safely be assumed to have no regular contact with Apple computing platforms.

    Yes, MACs can natively handle FAT32 farmted HDDs.

    They also can handle NTFS formatedd HDDS, albeit only read them.

    Well, it's asking good questions and getting lively (and somehow civil) discussion going all over the place, so I don't see the problem.

    The easiest way would just be to back up the files, wipe the hard drive, and start over with bootcamp from square 1, I think.
