    Thoughts on OS X 10.4.4 being cracked?

    Couldn't Apple maybe a release or two down the road include a "Press F6 to include x hardware drivers" like Microsoft does with XP. It could maybe help with hardware incompatibilities becuase the companies that make the non-apple hardware could make drivers for OSX. It's just a thought but it...

    Apple should have called the new iIrony

    It'd be damn sweet if OSX could run on every other x86 machine. But considering OSX costs about $130 for a single copy they wouldn't make as much per copy as Microsoft does with windows. It's a shame though. I'd switch to Apple if only I could use OSX without shelling out $1000 or more for a mac...

    WinXP x64 - your thoughts?

    It was good until I installed video drivers. It'd crash before the driver setup even finished and then it wouldn't boot afterwards. Maybe it's just the trial edition I'm using.

    Is it just me, or is vista's GUI ugly?

    The black theme isn't that bad. It's just something different. My only gripe is the start menu. It just feels wierd. I'm probably just not used to it so for now it's wierd. Now if they can get some basic sound drivers in there i'd be happy with vista. BTW, longhorn sounds like a much better name...

    WindowsXP 64 install freezing

    Yeah I know I should have just edited the previous posts but I was angry at the time so I didn't much care if it looked like I was posting to myself. But I am still not pleased that XP64 would be so buggy. I thought it was finished or finished enough to work properly.

    Well that was odd. I ran chkdsk from XPpro and now XP64 boots. This is good. Assuming everything goes well I'll be looking for 64bit virus scanners and other apps.

    WindowsXP 64 install freezing

    Ok I was a bit angry there. It is just very frustrating a computer simply refuses to cooperate. I know it is the nature of the beast but still. I kinda expected more from a finished OS. Maybe I just need to install the chipset drivers frist before anything else. What order does everyone else...

    WindowsXP 64 install freezing

    Ya know what? To hell with Xp64. It seems that no matter what I try to do it somehow breaks itself. If and when it does go through the setup it usually boots fine. But when I try to install the ATI drivers it restarts and gets stuck i during boot. It can't seem to get past acpitabl.dat. Maybe...

    So when is Vista/Longhorn coming out? I only have the trial cd of xp64 as I bought my system last week and didn't get XP with it(no money left over for it).

    Never mind I got it to work now. I used the disc I tried to install XP64 the first time and it worked. Why it worked now and not then is wierd but whatever.

    Even with new bios it still freezes at "Setup is starting Windows". I will definately need a new disc now.

    Vista beta dual boot problem

    Well sure. More time goes into making sure the code doesn't crash the whole program than it does coding the basic app. But maybe MS is just slow.

    Is it at all possible to run XP64 setup without a cd? The partition is already formatted. So could it be done?

    WindowsXP 64 install freezing

    Yeah but doesn't XP64 have sata drivers. I'm not running a raid setup. Just got the one harddrive.
