  • How can i run AirPort Express for both a Mac and Windows 2000 SP2?

    I have my AirPort Express set up for my iMac and it runs fine. We have a house guest who has a laptop running Windows 2000 SP2. Can I set up Airport so that both computers can access internet wirelessly?

    Just did a quick check of the Unofficial Averatec Support Forum. Several posters there upgraded the driver for the wireless card to support WPA on the 5110.
    They used drivers from other computer manufacturers and indicated that Averatec has not provided updated drivers.
    They were running XP SP2.
    Many Averatec models have weak wifi cards. Mine included. Sorry I am unable to be of more help.
    Good luck

  • Leopard 10.6.8  with Boot Camp 3.0.4 do not support Windows XP SP2???

    Hello!
    I have my MacBook Pro with Leopard 10.6.8 with Boot Camp 3 on it.Reading a BOOT CAM article I could see that it supports Windows XP SP2.I just installed Windows XP SP2...and when I am trying to use the drivers from MAC DVD it says that BOOT CAMP needs Windows 7.Why I can not use XP?Or where I can get the proper drivers?I have downloaded Boot Camp Drivers XP update pack 2.1 and tried touse it in that XP but just double clicking on it doesn't happen anything:(
    Please Help.

    Your saying BC 3.4 is on the Mac installer disk? I picked mine up in august 2011 and it only has 3.1 on it if I remember right. How did you check it?
    As of today my BC Assistant says 3.4 but the Control panel in Windows only says 3.3, I figure it an't broke I'm not worried about it.
    When you insert the disk, it asks you what to do, Run or Open, select Open.
    Make a new folder on the desktop in XP, drag ALL the files over to it.
      Right click on the setup.exe and select one of the options:
    1)-Troubleshoot Compatibility, do what it suggests,
    2)-Select Properties / Compatibility / click Run this program in Compatibility mode: then select XP sp2 and work your way up.
    If anything pops up about permissions then right click on it again and select Run as Administrator.
    If it still won't work then open the Boot Camp folder / Drivers folder / and install each one manually.

  • Can Windows XP SP2 Be Installed With Boot Camp on OS X Mountain Lion?

    Hello,
    I use the MacBook Pro Retina and currently have a Windows 7 partition which works fine.
    However, if I want to create a Windows XP SP2 partition as well, how can I do that?
    I have the install disk, but is it possible to have 2 boot camp partitions? How could I do this?
    Also, how can I install Windows XP and have it running successfully?
    Thank you

    You don't, just upgrade Windows 7 to Win 7 Pro or above and it will run XP programs and if they don't you can download XP for free from Microsoft and virtualize it within Win 7.

    The free Virtualbox, does the job and gets updates on older OS X versions, Fusion and Parallels (commercial software) keep routinely begging for cash or deny you security updates and forces you to upgrade to later OS X versions your machine may later can't handle.

    Hello John
    It is not easy to understand the whole situation, especially this part with viruses.
    In my opinion WXP installation should not be problematic.
    What you need is WXP SP2 or SP3 disc and SATA driver. Without SATA driver HDD will not be visible for WXP.

  • Installing Windows XP sp2 on SATA - KM4M-V

    Hi,
    Hope some one can help me:
    My Set Up:
    MSI KM4M-v
    Amd Atholon XP 2800+ 333mhz FSB
    1.5 gb Memory (Matrix PC3200) [1 x 1gb and 1 x 512mb]
    200gb Matrox DiamondMax +10 (SATA150/7200/8M)
    80gb Ibm Desktar IDE
    NEC DVD-RW Drive IDE
    Samsung DVD DRIVE IDE
    First off,
    The CPU only comes up as 2200+ ???
    Second
    When I boot It will only show the first DVD Drive in the chain if I unplug it, the other shows ok. Any Ideas?
    Thirdly
    My IDE Already has Windows XP and boots ok and will see the SATA drive so I know its working (I ran LIve Update 3 to ensure the bios was upto date)
    So when I try to install windows xp SP2 (Slip Streamed CD) on to the sata drive (Unplugged the IDE HDD) I prerss f6 and use the Floopy that comes with it. When its ready during loading it asks what driver to use - 2003 / XP / 2000 / NT 4
    So Select WINXP and it then goes to Windows Starting up and then says it can't find any mass storage. Press f3 to quit.
    Tried updating the drivers on the floppy and that doesn't work
    Any Ideas guys.
    Hope I have included enough info.
    TIA
    Kev

    Guys,
    OK Worked out my first problem I was using a Windows XP sp2 CD Created with nLite, and I think it had the raid drivers removed and thus wouldn't see the SATA Drive, well using a normal XP SP1 CD Its sees it.
    So thats sorted
    Cheers For your Help,
    Ok Not to the NExt Problem.
    IDE Drives,
    I have a new ROund IDE Cable withteh Long part + Blue Connector in the MoBo and the Other two (Closer together) in the Drives
    With one on the end is connected to a SAMSUN DVD-ROM Set as Primary and the Middle IDE Connecter Connected to NEC DVD-R and set to slave,
    When botted up together only Samsung is shown as Secondary Master, unplug samsung's power reboot shows NEC as Secondary Slave.
    Tried with two new rounded cables and the one I was using before I upgraded (AS I used the same drives before with another MoBo in that order and worked) And Still doesn't work with this MoBo.
    Any more ideas guys?
    Also how do i get the board to reconise my Athlon XP 2800+ as 2800+ rather then 2200+? If its jumper settings could you point me in the direction where I can change the jumpers?
    TIA
    And Once Again thanks for all ya help

  • 8800 Bluetooth connectivity & windows XP SP2

    Please can someone help.
    I have just been given an 8800 for Xmas and I want to connect it to my PC.
    I believe the only way to do this with an 8800 is via bluetooth. However I know absolutely nothing about BT.
    I have windows XP SP2 which I have read on WWW that it supports BT, but do I need to do something else in order to connect because when I try using the Nokia PC Suite it doesn't find my phone.
    Do I need to down load a driver?
    Do I need some other form of connectivity - I have seen dongles(?) mentioned elsewhere, do I need one of these?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am very keen to make the most of my phone.

    Supahoopsa,
    You just need to have a bluetooth installed in your laptop. If it is not internal, you can buy one for like 20dollars. Its like a USB Key.. install that on the PC and then turn on the BT on the phone,
    You can now connect the two.
    You may need to look at the manual that came with the BT (for the PC) to check how to pair devices.

    I am not sure I completely understand your question but I will take stab at it.
    First off if you have any additional cards that are USB 1.1 they will not function as USB 2.0. It is a hardware change not software. (Not sure if this applies but figured I would throw it out)
    One common thing with USB to get working properly is to remove all instances in device manager and reboot and have windows reinstall the drivers (it would be a lot nicer if bill came out with a better operating system, but you take what you can get )
    Do any USB ports function as 2.0?
    Good Luck

    No all of them are USB 1.10

  • Windows XP SP2's DEP feature and issues with some CPUs

    Hello all !
    I wanted to start this thread to help out people who are having problems with PC restarts when some applications are launched on a PC with Windows XP SP2. First though, a little technical explanation.
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 added a new security feature called Data Execution Prevention (DEP hereafter) that allowed Windows and a compliant CPU to perform additional checks on memory to help protect against malicious code exploits. New 64-bit CPUs from Intel and AMD support Hardware-enforced DEP and will halt execution of applications requiring access to special memory locations.
    For a very detailed explanation, please look at the following article:
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/sp2mempr.mspx
    Though most applications will run fine with the DEP feature enabled, a few can have compatability problems. In most such cases, the PC will either proceed to a blue screen error and restart or just restart directly (depending how error reporting is setup on the machine).
    Here's how DEP can be disabled:
    Method 1: Configure DEP to ignore your application
    =====================================
    - Open the control panel folder and double click the “System” icon
    - Click the “Advanced” tab
    - Click the “Settings” button in the “Performance” area
    - Click the “Data Execution Prevention” tab
    - Click the radio button that indicates you wish to specify programs for DEP NOT to operate on
    - Navigate to the folder where your application is located
    - Click the “Apply” button in all presented dialogs
    - Reboot your PC
    Method 2: Disable DEP completely
    =========================
    This method is used to disable DEP at the boot.ini file level. Please note that this requires very careful editing of the boot.ini file, a single space in the wrong location can prevent your system from starting. Please refer to the same article as above to disable DEP completely through the boot.ini file.

  • Fn+Del Not Working in Windows XP SP2

    I recently purchased a MacBook (2.2 GHz, 120 GB HD, 1 GB RAM, etc.) and decided to install Windows XP SP2 via Boot Camp. I followed all the instructions and it looks like Windows XP installed succesfully. However, I'm now experiencing a small problem. The Boot Camp help and instructions state that Fn+Del will function as the Windows delete key, but this doesn't seem to work. Anyone have any advice on how to fix this, or is something wrong with the Keyboard drivers that has to be fixed by Apple?
    - Marc

    Myself and others have had the same problem. The other thing that doesn't work is PrintScreen (fn + F11). I have the exact same MacBook as you. I created a thread about this same problem in this forum back in November, and there was no "official" fix. But now I use AutoHotKey (autohotkey.com), and you can create any keyboard shortcut on your own. Instead of Fn + delete, I created a shortcut for command + delete to do a Windows Delete. I also made shortcuts for PrintScreen, Page Up, Page Down, etc.
