I recently set up my gaming PC using Windows 7. At first, I was a Mac user and moved to a PC. I wanted to run Mac separately on my PC, kind of like how Bootcamp works for Mac, but instead of installing Windows, I’d install Mac. It’s essentially swapping it around. I already have Windows 7 installed and wondered if I could use the Mac’s hard drive in my PC setup—having two drives, one for Windows and one for Mac. Would that be feasible? The original Mac hard drive was replaced with an SSD, so it’s mostly unused except for storage on my Mac. I own a MacBook Pro from mid-2012. Any thoughts or advice? Thanks!

I think it's possible to run two operating systems side by side, though you might have had to set up OS X beforehand.

It won't be simple, and things could get really tough if you're not using an Intel processor. Try searching for "hackintosh" on Google.
