well you got networking working so transfering files should be pretty easy.

Heres what you have to do ...

1) Share a folder/drive in windows xp, give write access to your user name 

2) In OS X look at the top bar ..you see a "go"  menu ..click on it ..

3) Click to "connect to server" .. a new window will pop up .. type smb://<your windows computer name>

4) You will see a user name/password window now .. type those up and click Connect

5) Now it will ask you which shared folder you want to connect to .. choose the with write access and click connect

6) A icon will show up on your desktop with that shared folder name

7) start copying stuff  :yes:

could you clarify on how to give write access and also what exactly goes after smb://

---edit---

nevermind I got file sharing to work, thanks!

I know this is a little late in the post to be asking this, but i just started working on this. I'm trying to rip my Jaguar install cd's with windows. Every imaging program I've tried (including NERO) has given me the response that there is no disk in the drive. Yes, I did put it in and I did point the prog. to the right drive. Anyone have somthing similar to this, or know what my problem is?

*Current Project*

A friend of mine is currenly working on way to install Mac OS X, without any 3rd party software or even linux or Windows running. Rather to have it as a stand alone OS, just as you would with any other OS. He's run into many little snags here & there, but I'm hoping he makes it.

Does anyone know of anyone also working on such a project?

The idea is to have a bootable cd, that will install, just as if you where running an apple.

you can not .. I repeat .. you can not install OS X on a PC without emulating.

Why do you say that?

If anything has tought me, is never think someone is impossible.

I think he'll get it some day. The farthest he's gone is to have the

cd boot & start the install, but some where along the line the whole

computer crashes & nothing less then a format, will even fix it so

he can boot again.

I know he's been editing a lot of files & then remaking the cd.

Don't know how far he's really gone, but I've seen him try to install it.

So, he's TOTALLY rewriting OSX for x86?

Isn't that a waste of time?

Or has he just stuck Darwin on a CD?

looks like we got a 2nd Dennis Ritchie/Ken Thompson/Steve Wozniak here !! rewriting whole OS X for x86 platform !!

Pilsbury .. its total waste of time to reply to this guy's posts ..

@Phoenix2004... can I get my 2 mins back ?.. the mins I wasted reading your post

Sure, if you can refund mine as well.

I don't think he's rewriting the whole OS & that would be a waste of time. I'm not totally sure on what he's doing or how. I've seen him edit stuff & then see if it works. I'm not sure as to how though.

That's the error I'm getting.

run disk utility on it again. Erase the disk, then run "verify disk" ..that should fix it. BTW .. why do you have a 20 GB image ?!? :blink:

that could be a problem too. I don't think PearPC works on that large volume. Try making a small image .. like 3 to 6 gb in size.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
