Video was choppy near the mailbox, and the slowest I got was 17 frames per second. My character was in Ironforge, one of the busiest, laggiest zones in the game. I put the WoW folder in “Program Files” and ran it.
#STUFFIT EXPANDER IS STUCK PC#
I shared a folder on the Mac-running-XP and copied the WoW folder from my PC to it. I knew that running Visual Studio and Office would work, so I had to run something that would push the system a little harder. No emulation, no virtual machine, native. That was it, I finally had Windows XP running natively on a Mac. Also, the Mighty Mouse that comes with the iMac works as a two-button mouse with a scroll wheel just fine. The “Delete” key on the main part of the keyboard is really backspace and doesn’t work for the three-finger-salute. Ctrl-Alt-Delete is required for getting on a corporate network, and the iMac’s “Del” key on the middle keypad worked perfectly.

Apparently, using the iSight is a bad idea.Īfter I got the network drivers working, I connected to my corporate network. When I tried using the iSight, XP bluescreened on me and the iMac rebooted. What it DIDN’T give me were drivers for the built-in iSight video camera. This gave me video acceleration for the ATI X1600, network card drivers, Airport drivers, and Bluetooth. Since the drivers for the network card have to be installed later, I had to stick with the WORKGROUP Workgroup for now.Īfter installation, I immediately installed the Macintosh Hardware Drivers. During the installation, it asked me to hook up to my corporate network.
XP installed without a hitch, and fast too.
#STUFFIT EXPANDER IS STUCK INSTALL#
If you don’t have a Windows XP CD that’s been slipstreamed to install with SP2, please check out Paul Thurrot’s site on SP2 slipstreaming. I happened to have a slipstreamed XP SP2 CD on me which is required for this to work. So I installed the firmware, rebooted, and partitioned my hard drive to give XP 10 GB of free space (I’ll explain why further down). Wait…why wasn’t that included in the OS YEARS AGO? It also asks if you want to burn a CD of drivers for the hardware that’s on your Mac. Boot Camp is an application that helps you get started by paritioning your hard drive.
#STUFFIT EXPANDER IS STUCK UPDATE#
The firmware update is what actually allows you to boot your Windows XP SP2 CD, not Boot Camp itself. Before you could run Boot Camp, you have to install the 10.4.6 update and a firmware update.
However, the date was April 5, not March 31 or April 1, so I immediately downloaded it and tested it on my Intel iMac at work. You know how they linger around for a few days. When I first saw the news, I thought it was a leftover April Fool’s joke. Now, I’ll be selling both my Dell and Powerbook. However, I did recently buy a Dell laptop since I needed it for gaming away from my computer room, and other mobile uses. I put off buying an Intel-based Mac for a while, mainly because I don’t really need one right now. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’d know by now that Apple released their Boot Camp application which allows you to run Windows XP SP2 on your Intel-based Mac Book Pro, Mini, or iMac. Boot Camp, Parallel, brings XP to the Intel Macs ApPosted by starman in Mac Stuff.
