Franck Dernoncourt,
I've never heard of it working well when using Boot Camp. If you want it to run on a Mac, the best solution is to contact
www.rjcooper.com for their software package.

Thanks, long story short, I need to use Windows 7 on a Mac this summer, and was hoping that SmartNav would work on Boot Camp
Out of curiosity, why does SmartNav have issue with Boot Camp?

Franck,
Applications which attempt to grab all user input and redirect it to a source other than the current desktop (VMWare, Remote Desktop, etc) may interfere with the SmartNAV. There may be a way to make it work, but you would likely need to get the troubleshooting steps from the makers of VMware.

Mike, just to be in the same page: I was asking whether it is possible to use SmartNav with Windows 7 running on Boot Camp. No other OS involved, unlike virtual machines or remote control.

Franck,
I have had users claim success when using Boot Camp, but I have not personally had success with it.
