Yes your hardware should be capable of dual booting Windows and OS X. However I strongly encourage you to make bootable backups of your system before proceeding. Also, spend time reading dual booting guides and OS X installation guides. The general recommendation is have one drive for Windows and one drive for OS X. Also note with this "old" motherboard you will be installing OS X in the Clover legacy mode (not UEFI mode).

Good modding,

Thank you so much Neil

One still make me a little bit not understand is " one drive for Windows and one drive for OSX" its is mean I need to install both different OS into different drive ? I mean two hard drives each for different OS ?
