Gringo Vermelho Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 You can't install video drivers for your video card on a virtual machine. As far as I know there is no virtualization software out yet that allows that. Parallels Desktop uses its own, proprietary video drivers. Your video card is "virtualized" and the guest OS does not see your actual, physical video card. You could run Black Ops on OS X through Crossover or Wine or something, google 'black ops mac' for more ideas.

aufa333 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 not really much help.. i looked and got more confused.. and what about the rest of my problems? any help on that aswell? *what Mr.Gringo trying to tell u is , Parallels is not a Bootcamp ,it means that u cant install vga driver through it , Parallels use ur installed windows 7 partition as VM which means that whatever u install on the main OS will reflect on Parallels and not the other way around. *to play black ops on mac ,u need to get something call CiderX,CXEx or wine which is a porting progs that makes it possible to play most of windows games on mac without the need to use Parallels or bootcamp. *to get the usb3 working on hackintosh ,get MB and install the usb3 controller. *ur adobe premiere problem is also related to the same thing as above ,Parallels is a some sort of VM and thats why u cant change the mercury engine to HW .

It won't let you do that because your video card is not officially supported. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=223244 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/266578-got-few-minor-problems/#findComment-1741234 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gringo Vermelho Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I don't know anything about ATI cards. Follow the link I posted. The video card you have should work just fine, you must be doing something wrong.

Gringo Vermelho Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 unless apple do that or a nerdy programmer find away around ,there is nothing u can do . All you need to do is edit a text file and add the name of your video card to it, then it works. Follow the link I posted above for more information.
