steve19137 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 so i managed to dual boot mac and windows. now i need to get all my hardware working. all i know as far as hardware goes is i have a Compaq Presario C551NR Notebook, with a Broadcam Wireless Card, and 1.5G of RAM (maybe...?). other wise, i dont know how to get the names of my hardware. the things i cant get working. wifi usb ports (3 external, 1 internal) bugdom 2 (bought legally, transferred via CD-RW) safari downloads (keeps crashing when download begins) thins that are working (strangely enough) DVD-ROM drive sound buttons (up, down, mute. strange that they were mapped...) Marble Blast Gold Demo plain safari using (still intermittently crashes) i have this dual boot because i own this computer and a powerbook g4. awesome computer... when it was new. i bought bugdom for my bro and sis so they could play, but it wont work on our powerbook. so that asked if i could get it to work. i thought that it would work better on a pc hardware, thus here i am. so i want to get bugdom working for that reason. the wifi so they can play games (duh), the usb so i can do my ipt hacking, and safari downloads for my siblings. so how can i get these things to work? i still have windows vista home basic installed, but with a limited hard drive. partitioned for the dual boot. if you need more hardware specs, then you need to tell me how to get them, then i will post them. if you need a file, just tell me where to get it and i will post it. so any help that can be given would be appreciated. thanks.
