If that were possible there would be no such thing as OSX. The only wat to run both Mac and Windows programs reliably is to buy a Mac. All this Hackintosh stuff is just playing around. People who need to work can not use a hack. They need a reliable platform. If you don't want a Mac for whatever reason just use Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try these templates for Leopard, but I would forget about the JaS 10.4.8 release. Works fine for most uses, but not video or sound editing. Works as well on VMware Workstation on Windows/Linux as it does on VMware Fusion on Mac OS X. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=139178 http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=139178 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Video is OK but there is no acceleration. This is how it also works on the supported Fusion product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
