iRacing on a Mac
I get a lot of questions about whether iRacing will work on the Mac, so I thought I would post this and hopefully satisfy some google searches with this answer…
What you need:
1. A Mac that meets minimum system requirements.
2. Apple’s Bootcamp.
3. Microsoft Windows XP or Vista.
4. Steering Wheel.
You should be aware that if you screw things up, that’s your fault, not mine. You’re taking full responsibility for your actions.
Firstly, you need a Mac that meets the minimum PC system requirements that are listed on iRacing.com. Currently you can go to iRacing.com and there is a link in the footer straight to them.
If you meet those requirements, you should then try to find out if anybody using your Mac model has experienced problems with running Windows XP natively. Apple do make minor changes to hardware to make them work better with their software. I have heard that some graphics cards fans always run slowly (causing overheating) when XP is running on a Mac. Check things out first, better safe than sorry.
Next, if you are going ahead with the installation, you need to use Apple’s bootcamp and install Windows XP or Vista (there’s lots of guides around explaining how to do this). Make sure you have all the relevant drivers installed. (Mac’s are basically PC’s on the inside, there should be Windows drivers for everything in your Mac).
So, now you have a working installation of Windows, right? Go to iRacing.com and subscribe as if you had a PC all along…
Make sure you get a good steering wheel.
