Korrupted Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Is there any way of using CTRL + ALT +DEL without a USB keyboard, that has the DEL key? ; I can't afford a USB keyboard right now. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollcage Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 two things: press Win(Cmd)+U and bring up the onscreen keyboard and get your combination in that way. You might have to click ctl+alt on your keyboard and use your cursor for del. not sure, don't have a mbp to try it on (will if you send me one ) and download a program called input remapper, get it at http://www.olofsson.info/ Uses the default keypad like in OSX. This includes num-lock functionality fn+Left Click = Right Click fn+Backspace = Delete fn+Eject = PrintScreen fn+F1 = Decrease Brightness fn+F2 = Increase Brightness fn+F3 = Toggle Mute fn+F4 = Decrease Volume fn+F5 = Increase Volume fn+F6 = Toggle Num-Lock fn+Up = Page Up fn+Down = Page Down fn+Left = Home fn+Right = End Eject = Eject all optical discs Enter = Right mouse button= i run a version of server 2003 on my mini, but it's modified to be like xp in usability. it also includes MAJOR improvements in performance (55mb ram usage on first boot). it's like the exact opposite of vista...FAST!

rollcage Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 i can also give people the link for the version i use (Windows eXPericence Edition). i won't post the link here for obvious reasons, but pm me if you want it. it's about 400-500 mb (don't remember exactly) and works fine with bootcamp. it also passes validation with M$, so you can update it. it's was especially made with gamers in mind (half life 2 levels load in like a third of the time on xp!).

rollcage Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Any ideas on how to run the XP drivers installer on 2003? That one's got me stumped as well. sorry, i haven't figured that out yet. i had to find most of the drivers myself, got most of them from the Great Driver Hunt thread. i've tried changing the setttings so that the setup program ran in compatability mode for xp, but it wouldn't work. i just got sound to work tonight. if you want to install wmp 11 beta 2, you can get it at: http://rapidshare.de/files/31891138/Media_...2_W2K3.exe.html i'll keep trying to find a way to get the drivers to install, as keyboard support for volume and disc eject would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrupted Posted October 20, 2006 Author Share Posted October 20, 2006 I heard you can remove the OS checks with installshield professional, with the MSI file, but I've no idea how to use it. Could anyone kindly guide me in the right direction? Google seems to only have really outdated tutorials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrupted Posted October 21, 2006 Author Share Posted October 21, 2006 No other ideas on how I can extract the files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollcage Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 this is the only thing i've found so far: XP is required to run the file “Install Macintosh Drivers for Windows XP.exe” on the Apple Driver CD. To bypass this, run the file in Administrative Install mode and extract the files to a directory by doing the following: Start -> Run -> “D:\Install Macintosh Drivers for Windows XP.exe” /V /a -> Extract your drivers to C:\Install Macintosh Drivers for Windows XP In C:\Install Macintosh Drivers for Windows XP, you will see two folders System32 and Program Files. Copy the files within System32 to C:\Windows\system32 and the files within program files to C:\Program Files got it from http://blog.netnerds.net/2006/05/run-windo...n-your-macbook/ it doesn't look like there is a lot of info for putting server 2003 on a mac. guess that means not many people have done it. maybe they know something we don't edit : just found this too. they have some (not all) the drivers for certain mac systems. http://wiki.onmac.net/index.php/Users/Drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollcage Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Well I've got a majority of the items running, but I cannot figure out which unknown device is my wireless card. Any tips? i think that it labeled as an ethernet controller, but as soon as i get a chance to get on the machine i have it on, i'll check and see.

rollcage Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 yeah, it should be labeled as an ethernet controller. if it's not, you may also be able to find which device is the wireless card is by it's location. right click on one of the unknown devices and select properties. if you look under location, you should be able to find the card because it should be in a pci slot.

Korrupted Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 Well, one says PCI Slot 2(PCI bus 3, device 0, function0), and the other says 'on PCI standard ISA bridge.' Any ideas on which one is which? Also, which atheros driver should I use once I find it? There are like 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollcage Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 my guess would be the first device there. if it doesn't work you can always try the other one as for which driver, i had a big list to pick from too. i narrowed it down because only a few of them said they were a/b/g compatible in the name, and all of them seem to do the same thing (i tried all of them). i don't know what the list looks like, but try to find some with "a/b/g" and "pci express" (or just "pci") in the name. you might have to play around with them a bit before you find one that works right... hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrupted Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 EDIT: Ok, the wireless works. Any idea on how to get the internal mic to work now? It worked when I had windows XP installed. I have the sigmatel audio already setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the sigmatel audio already setup. can you set it up from the audio properties? you should be able to select the the microphone from the line-in list. that's if everything is working of course.... from what little i've read about the mic, it seems to work fine in xp with boot camp, but people are having trouble getting it to work anywhere else (either works right in the beginning or not at all). i haven't found anyone that's gotten it to work yet, but i do, hopefully they have how they got it that way.

Korrupted Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 Under the voice test, the input volume is greyed out, so obviously, it's not recognizing it. Here are the remaining devices: PCI Device(PCI bus 0, device 7, function 0) SM Bus Controller(PCI bus 0, device 31, function 3) Unknown Device(on M$ ACPI-Compliant system) Unknown Device(on PCI standard ISA bridge) USB Device(Location 0 [uSB device]) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
