How can I add a previously installed windows on my mac pro installation

Hi guys, everything becomes to collect my newly bought mac pro 3.1 (used). I'm moving PC, but how do I add my existing installation of windows on my mac? The mac pro is 3.1 and has 2 x 500 GB disks in a raid 1 TB configuration. It's just a matter of plugging my windows disk (I'm guessing No.) or is it a bit more complex than that? Any help or advice will be appreciated and hope to give back as much help as I get that I'm learning. Thank you

You can install Windows on a Mac computer using Boot Camp Assistant or by using a Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox virtual machine natively. Refer to the instructions of Boot Camp located here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/. OT If using a virtual machine see the instructions located on the Parallels, Fusion or VirtualBox sites.

In both cases you can not use a PC already existing installation of Windows. You need to reinstall Windows on your Mac.

    It is possible that the recovery partition "can" still be fuctional if Linux has not deleted it. Check the manual of the owner on how to start and start (press key during the initial boot process) the process of recovery. If this does not work then contact the manufacturing of the laptop and see if they can still provide you with recovery media.

    Note that your card will be used for all the features of GPU - but the 3D rendering acceleration traced the beam - requires a Nvidia GPU. This is a deprecated feature that you don't need to worry about anyway.
