 Macintosh Game need help! PLEASE!
I have a game I bought on eBay "Putt-Putt Saves the zoo" for my babysister. I use to play it when I was a kid and loved it. i want her to play it as well. On the CD it says its only compatible for Windows 31, Windows 95 and Macintosh. i have a PowerMac G5 and I really want to have my sister play it. I was thinking of buying VM Ware maybe it would work that way but I still dont know if it will play on something over advanced for it. What program can I buy to Play this OLD cd? Thank You for reading n for help  |

What OS are you running? The Mac version will not run on OS X, but it might run in the Classic environment if you're running 10.4.x or older (not 10.5) and have access to Mac OS 9. VMWare will not run on your G5; it only runs on Intel-based Macs. Running Windows games on PowerPC-based Macs like your G5 is painful at best. VirtualPC might work, but even for very old games it might be too slow (it works okay for productivity apps, but sound support is incredibly slow, so even very old games are tricky).
