    I wanted to do Wifi, but after failing I thought screw it and got a cable from my friend. So if the Wifi had worked, I would have used it. Windows is stuck on SP1. After buying the CD apparent;y its not legitimate. And I refuse to pay Micrsosoft more money just to get my legal disk 'valid.' And...

    No means can connect these two together

    No combination I've tried works. They all get the same error message. There is no wired router. Just a crossover cable. My Wireless router is a linksys (I know I know...) Ips are 192.168.1.100 (mac) and 192.168.1.103 (Windows) When using the crossover cable, I disabled the wifi and configured...

    No means can connect these two together

    Failing to read OSX Tiger CD

    Heh, tell me about it :) Should be upto speed soon. (1152mb RAM, soon to have 1.6ghz CPU (took me ages to find that thing!)) I'll try everything I can, at least it isn't life or death. Though it is an annoyance how the original apple one *ahem* ceased working, and this one doesn't boot. Ah well...

    Failing to read OSX Tiger CD

    I will take a look at that link andychrist, thank you, it is much appreciated. The disk works in my brothers mac, boots and everything. So yep, its the drive. Oh well it was cheap, and $59 is nothing over here, even if the postage to the UK costs $40, its still only about £60 to me :) The...

    Failing to read OSX Tiger CD

    I know there isn't technically enough RAM to run Tiger (minimum of 256), however it seems to work darn well :) I have purchased two 512mb RAMs that should ba arriving soon. Then its a CPU upgrade. The disk is readable as I have used it before. I don't suppose apple have somehow made the disk...

    Failing to read OSX Tiger CD

    As the title suggests, my machine has stopped reading the Mac OSX CD. And suprise suprise, I need it for reasons I won't go into. When inserting the disk, there is no reaction. Upon a restart it spins up the disk, sits on a blank white screen for a few minutes, spits it out and boots as normal...
