Virtual XP on Powerbook G4?

Posted by admin on May 12, 2009 in OS | 0 comments

I've been toying with the idea of running Windows XP on OSX 10.4. You know, just to run the occasional odd program that somehow has no Mac equivalents. Unfortunately, my choice is very limited as I'm using a PowerPC Mac and not an Intel Mac. Almost all virtualization software run on Intel Macs.

D-Link DSL 2640T & Netgear DG834 – WEP connection problem on Mac

As I mentioned in my last article on DSL-2640T setup, I managed to setup the device and everyone but me got online. The security was set to WEP, I tried to join the wireless network no less than 50 times different ways but to no avail. Dissatisfied and very reluctantly, I gave up.

Took the CD, popped into my drive and nothing happens. No pretty CD icon on my desktop, so I tried to eject it. No response....I tried and tried and tried. Nothing happened.

This happened when I was at a friend's place. I needed to use her wifi but she forgot the WEP code. So, in a haste, I reset the wireless router. Managed to set up a new passcode and I got on the wireless network. But there was NO INTERNET!
