Well I successfully installed 10.4.3 after the 3rd time trying. Mostly everything works (including sound)

 

One thing that doesn't work however is that I can't browse the internet. I have cable internet (optonline) and am using a Motorola SB4200 SURFboard cable modem. Is there anything I could do to enable internet browsing?

 

One more thing is that iTunes says that it's expired...I don't really know what to do for this either, and looked around in search...so if you would be kind enough to help me with this also...:P

 

 

Anyway thanks to this wonderful community, Maxxuss and somemore important people I can't think of right now ;), I can finally run a Mac on my PC

We need to know what network card your computer is using. Or are you directly connected to the Motorola SB4200 SURFboard cable modem with a USB cable? If not, you should have an ethernet cable from the cable modem into the computer. Perhaps in an onboard ethernet port, or maybe in a PCI card ethernet adapter. More details please. :hysterical:

A google search came up with the fact that your card uses a Davicom DM9102 Fast Ethernet NIC controller chipset. This is listed in several places in the WIKI, as incompatible... sorry :(

You might want to look at the wiki, and purchase a cheap network card that is listed as compatible. You can probably find one for less that $10 if you look around. :dev:

Got me. Try checking the Wiki compatibility lists. :dev:

My D-Link FA311 FE Rev.1 works great with no tweaking... See this page of the wiki for details. D-Link makes several cards that seem to work great, but be careful, as certain older revisions of the same card don't always work for some reason. For example, the DLink DFE-530 TX+, it's reported that most revisions work great, but for some reason the latest F1 revision doesn't work at all. Good Luck.
