chasmataz Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 dual boot XP and OSx86. i cheated big time. first i shrunk my XP with partion magic left the xtra space FAT. then i cloned a running hack to a thumb drive with CCC installed chameleon to the thumb drive booted from the thumb, erased/formatted the empty partion with disk utility then cloned the thumb to the fresh partion rebooted from the thumb, reinstalled chameleon to the new mac clone and wala! it boots to osx unless i hit any key before boot where i then have my choice XP or OSx86. the only thing screwy is the time is 6 hours off on the mac side but i'll get it figured out.

dkcas11 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Have you checked your graphics card? You will be able to to hear the audio, but not see the video. Perhaps you should update your kexts.

chasmataz Posted January 14, 2012 Author Share Posted January 14, 2012 well the video is only screwy on videos...online type, i mean the regular everyday stuff, and normal web surfing is fine; it's only not there when watching youtube and since it's on both safari and chrome i'm thinking it's an adobe flash player issue rather than hardware or kexts, but what do i know?

Gringo Vermelho Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 You tube is Flash-based and Flash requires hardware acceleration in order to work. Your video card is not working right. There's a registry hack for Windows that fixes the time difference. Google something like Windows UTC registry to find it.

AKennedy_4 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Its called the Appletime hack provided from PC Wiz computer Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/274576-i-did-it/#findComment-1786094 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Bleh. The UTC registry hack was neither invented nor discovered by PC Wiz. It's a hidden feature in Windows OS since Windows 2000, although apparently it only works correctly on Windows 7.
