holy christ, my brain hurts so bad,
I've been trying to get this thing to work.
I have a feeling my computer doesn't like mac stuff?

I've been trying to get this mini vmac to have a few games on it,
but it's not working for me, and I just want to play some Dungeons of Doom, BattleTanks &Oregon Trail on my vmac.

if someone can do this for me,
i would be happy.

What problem you are having?
I can try and dig up my video tutorials if you are stuck on the OS installation.

well, i have the disk and everything setup, but once it gets to me using the stufft thing, and the games are in .sit format and my pc isn't reading the files.

if you could do it for me, or yes, supply video's to help me install games.

I only have video tutorials for OS installation as installing stuff using a PC is tricky and doesn't always work.
Tomorrow I will try some stuff out and make some video tutorials.

OT: Does anyone know if HFS/HFS+ on linux saves the resource fork of Macintosh files properly?

Google found this six-year-old post that claims so.

Sorry for the delay, I'm working on the video tutorials right now.
I should cover everything from OS installation to installing software/games.

#160176 - Lazy1 - Fri Jul 11, 2008 1:08 am

Can I get a volunteer to try out the tutorial so far?
I have only covered OS installation at this point but I want to make sure the directions are easy enough to follow and understand.

Edit:
For win32.
