Get DevIDs again and search the forum There have been mixed results with users on AMD systems, and is unofficially supported only by the hacking/cracking community. Good luck with your rig!

Lightz Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 Thanks for the help but I have one more question, how do I download the drivers onto the mac with out any internet. Is there some way to transfer them? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49780-drivers-needed/#findComment-355920 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu.Walker Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Try MacDrive or UFS Explorer Pro, one of them might work for you. Or just burn it to an optical disc.

Lightz Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 mac drive wouldn't open up the vmware virtual disk unless I was doing it incorrect. Also I tried mounting an iso version of a cd with daemon tools but it didn't pop up unless i need to reboot for that to work.

Zulu.Walker Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Ah, I was under the impression you were running it native. Just recently woke up, kinda missed the word "vmware". So to make things clearer: 1) Video resolution is dependent on default VMWare graphics capabilities 2) Try sound emulation options under VMWare 3) Try sound emulation options under VMWare 4) Shared/host-only emulation You can make a shared folder that OS X should be able to access under Windows, you can then drop your stuff there and access it in VMWare. Or you can try host-only networking to connect your VM to your host OS. Sorry for the mixup, I'm only human with very poor vision Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49780-drivers-needed/#findComment-355936 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightz Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 lol no problemo, that makes things easier ill give them a try. Not 100% familiar with vmware so i might need a bit more help but ill post back. OK I added my sound card to the emulation don't know if it works or not yet haven't tested it been trying to figure out the other things. Is there a way to make the resolution like 800x600 so it fits into a window without scroll bars...my current xp res is 1440x900? Edit #3: Well im offically connected to the net, had to switch the internet to nat in vmware. But any help with the resolution would be great...1024x768 looks bad in full screen and is too big in window Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49780-drivers-needed/#findComment-355939 Share on other sites More sharing options...
