Parallels, is it possible to run FSX ???

I love my flight sim and don't have problems running it through bootcamp. I have tried using parallels and i get a message "Flight Sim. not working with your video card, verify you have latest drives installed... "
Is there any way to solve this problem??
Thanks

Not yet, and while parallels 3.0 advertises itself to being able to play games, the number of threads over on their forums indicate performance, stability and an inability to play games.
VMware's fusion isn't much farther along, they're still in beta and while they seem to have a superior product it too cannot play games.
You're best bet from a performances perspective is to play them in bootcamp. You'll get maximum compatability and no performance hits related to running a VM under OSX

  • Is it possible to run Tiger in Snow Leopard using Parallels?

    Hey All,
    Anyone know if it is possible to run Tiger in Snow Leopard using Parallels?
    I am using SPSS 16 and it is not compatible with snow leopard. A temporary fix right now if I partitioned my hard drive and installed Leopard on some extra space to run SPSS. This is kind of annoying because I only need Leopard to use SPSS. I would rather emulate it so I can listen to iTunes and check my email in SL.
    What about Panther? I think I even have a copy of Panther to install in Parallels?
    I read somewhere that the EULA restricts OS X from being emulated, which seems odd for Mac users who need to test or use old software. I understand though about emulating OS X on windows machine though. I guess they need to blow off the whole foot than just cut off one toe.
    Thanks for the thoughts!

    From what I can tell, doing this would be, at best, of dubious legality.
    Even so, the popular opinion seems to be that it would take some degree of hacking to pull off a virtual machine running OS X. I think that unless you are willing and able to undertake such a task, your best bet is to stick with a partition running an old version or wait for SPSS to be updated for Snow Leopard.
    Although...... I have Parallels 4 (current version is 5) and it has an option, when setting up a new Virtual Machine, to install Mac OS X server (see image linked below). Perhaps if you could get a copy of the server edition of the OS you would have more success?

  • Is it Possible to Run Reporting Agent job in Parallel?

    Hi Folks,
              I am sceduling a reporting agetn job and I see that it only takes one back Ground process and its a long running Job, so I was thinking about the possibilty of breaking this into parallel jobs..Is this possible if so please share with me how to do this...thanks in advance

    Farhan,
           I think I did not explain my question properly, I do not want to create 2 variants with different time selections and run it as 2 jobs, this way I cannot have a Super Set for using Cache, what I am want is use just one variant (Jan through Dec) and when I execute this in the background, i want this job to split into parallel processes so that it runs faster...Can someone explain if this is possible. if so how can i achieve this..thanks in Advance..

  • Is it possible to run a java application/program forever?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to run a java program forever?
    if so please reply how it is possible
    thanks in advanced.

    There was a computer with many processes.
    Some processes came and went: they exited either voluntarily by calling exit(2),
    simply returned from their main method, or were terminated by a signal
    like SEGV, TERM, and the dreaded uncatchable KILL.
    Other processes strove to eternal running: they detatched themselves from their
    controlling terminals, ignored the HUP signal or even interpreted
    it as an occasion to reread their configuration instead of
    taking it as a notification on the line's "hanging up"
    or more generally the controlling pseudo or virtual terminal's being closed.
    Resources were acquired and released, processes came and went, some stayed though.
    Long-running processes were experienced to writing ever growing "access" and "error" logs.
    Rumors went around about "garbage collection" and "memory leakage".
    The processes started to think: "What if not all resources get released?
    What if the available memory shows an overall shrinking trend
    and in the long term it will be totally exhausted?
    What if the disk space get freed in a lesser pace as it gets consumed?
    How shall we survive in a Universe where there is no space is left
    even for sysem logs?"
    The processes made the observation that they were identifed by their process id's
    (pid of the integral type pid_t), and the only way they to create a process
    was the fork(2) system call, which returned 0 to the child,
    the positive pid of the child to the parent, and a negative value on error.
    Thus the pid could only be postive numbers.
    The processes observed the one "init" with pid=1, the smallest thinkable pid.
    They asked: "Will it run forever? If not, what will become of us?
    If a process exits without wait(2)-ing for its children,
    who will inherit it if "init" no longer exists?"
    They came to the conclusion that no process could have existed before this one,
    so their universe began once, was not infinite in the past.
    They called this event (which lead to the existance of the process "init"
    and actually their whole universe) "The Big Bang" or "The Big Boot".
    "Is it possible that different, parallel universes exist?
    Is it possible that different, parallel universes arise with different laws and system API's?"
    - they asked.
    Will their universe exist for eternity?
    If yes, in what conditions? Will it eventually run out of the resources,
    will it become cool and frozen with no memory, no available disk space,
    with no resources left drifting along with no activity?
    Or will their universe come to an end, to a condition where
    signals (TERM and then KILL) fly to all processes,
    all file system get umounted, all activity stops?
    "Big Crash" or the "Big Shutdown" they called this scenario.

  • Is it possible to run SAS statistical software on Mac computers?

    Is it possible to run SAS statistical software on Mac computers? I am looking to buy a Mac but I heard taht they had problems running SAS. Does anyone have experience running this statistical software on their computer?

    I am not a SAS user but from what I found on various web sites, the latest Mac native version of SAS is version 6 (which goes back to 1999-2000...).
    So if you want to use SAS on a current Mac, it will probably have to be a Windows version running on the Mac either using Apple's Bootcamp or Parallels Desktop for Mac virtualization application.

  • Is it possible to run sub vi and main vi at same time from startup?

    Is it possible to run both my main vi and my two sub vi`s from startup, all of them continuously? I have to sub vi`s that are supposed to take in measurements from two different instruments continuously. I manage to make a program where I can open up and close the sub vi`s, but when my sub vi`s are closed, nothing is happening in them...and they start to run again when I open them...and I have to close them if my main VI is supposed to run. So the data in the chart is only from the periodes when the sub vi has been open.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    I will send my labview programs. "Hovedprogram" is my main vi, "front" and "front 2" is my sub vi`s. I am also using global variables. I have already searched the discussion forum trying to find an answer to my problem, but I haven`t quite managed yet...
    My sub vi`s are not connected to any instrument now, but I have inserted a sinewave-generator and a chart in "front"(my sub vi) so I am able to see that the sub vi actually stop running when i close the window.

  • Is it possible to run the Classic Environment INSIDE Rosetta on a MacBook Pro (Early 2008) with Leopard?

    Hi there,
    Rosetta works up until Snow Leopard. The Classic Environment works up until a late version of Tiger. Rosetta makes apps. built for PowerPC Macs work. The Classic Environment make apps. for Mac OS 9 work on Mac OS X for PowerPC Macs.
    Would it consequently be possible to run the Classic Environment INSIDE Rosetta?
    I have read https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2292, but I am still unconvinced unless there is a flaw to my logic. At any rate, I subscribe to the Churchillian adage of never giving in unless the forces of common sense and doctrine dictate otherwise.
    If it won't work, then why?
    Best Regards,
    Stefan

    Hi there, Klaus1, BDAqua and a brody,
    Thank you ever so much for your kind replies! (I tried giving you the 10 pts. of 'Correct Answers' to each of you, but unfortunately it was only possible for Klaus1, so the points were distributed between him and BDAqua even though you were all helpful!)
    My next question will naturally be: Is SheepShaver legal? My Google search didn't yield any conslusive proof that it was, nor any that it wasn't, but as the E-Maculation web page seemed quite official and above board I would assume that it is.
    The next logical step would be to ask whether it's safe for both HW and SW to run SheepShaver. HW, it appears, is very rarely, if ever, affected by SW settings, so I would assume that hardwarewise, I'm good to go. Could it ruin the kernel of Mac OS X's Unix-based operating system?
    Kind Regards,
    Stefan

  • Is it possible to run an application from a user or container login script?

    Is it possible to run an application from a user login script or a container login script?
    A "Force Run" application object works fine if the user's workstation is setup to auto-load "Application Window" or "Application Explorer" but in this case I'd like to run an application when someone does a manual login (ie. they right-click red "N" and choose "Novell Login...")
    Using a User Package's "Scheduled Action Policy" and the Event=Login also does not work when a user logs in manually. This type of Event seems to only apply when the user first logs into the workstation, not at a manual login.
    Thanks,
    Marc

    Yes, see the documentation:

  • Is it possible to run a java program without using the command prompt?

    Hi,
    I was wondering whether it is possible to run a Java program (not an applet) without using a command line in the command prompt?
    Basically I want to run a program that will be continually running in the background and hence I don't want to have a command prompt screen loaded up as well - I just want the program to be running in the task bar.
    I know how to run the program in the task bar - but I still need to launch the program from the command prompt - is there anyway I can get a program running without having to start it from the command prompt?
    Cheers

    Or create a desktop shortcut (in Windows) or an application launcher ( in Linux GUI).

  • Is it possible to run two different versions of Apple operating system (for ex. 10.6.8 and 10.9) on a MacBook Pro, either on the same disk or from an external hard disk? If so, where would I find the details?

    Is it possible to run two different versions of Apple operating system (for ex. 10.6.8 and 10.9) on a MacBook Pro, either on the same disk or from an external hard disk? If so, where would I find the details? (In order to be able to use the older applications no longer supported in 10.9)

    If you want to add a second partition to the internal drive (in Disk Utility, select the drive, then open the partition tab and just click the + button), you should first be sure that you will have enough room to accommodate whatever the second volume will be. I am currently doing this for Snow and Mountain Lion.
    To get to whatever volume is not the startup disk, restart and hold down option/alt at the chime, which will bring up a selection of the two volumes. Use the left or right arrow keys to select it and then hit enter/return.

  • Is it possible to run 5.5 on windows 8.1??

    Is it possible to run Photoshop 5.5 on Windows 8.1? I have a CD which I tried to run but when I click on install nothing is happening. I have CS6 trial already running on the laptop, so my question is, is it because I need to uninstall CS6 (although I haven't got a warning message come up to tell me to do that first before running 5.5, so don't want to get rid of the CS6 trial without making sure that it is the problem) or whether 5.5 will not run on Windows 8.1 anyway.
    Your time and advice would be greatly appreciated, as need to know whether I need to return the 2nd hand 5.5 CD.

    Thanks so much Gene. I really appreciate your time and suggestions.
    Btw, should have been clearer  as one couldn't imagine I meant that 5.5 (i.e. ancient one). The adobe website also has this info: Windows 8.1 compatibility for Adobe Photoshop version 5 which just says version 5.5 under compatibility. So it does seem possible indeed to run this but perhaps for someone more techie. Had a look at the thread re: 6.0 and tried to run it as admin. Tried copying the contents on the desktop and change the compatibility under properties (even ran compatibility trouble shooter under properties) - but in vain. Must be doing something wrong. Prolly easier to return the CD (:/)
    If anyone could drop an idea in relation to how/where to buy a genuine and legal copy of a CS5/CS6 I woudl greatly appreciate. I bought the 5.5 off eBay and probably will search for the right version this time on there again. But it's a bit of a question mark for me in regards to how do I make sure that I buy a genuine licenced version which I can register with the Adobe.

  • Is it possible to run Posture using ISE 1.2 without NAC Agent provisioning?

    Is it possible to run Posture using ISE 1.2 without NAC Agent provisioning?
    -My customer does not want to push NAC Agent installation on BYOD type of computers (non-managed by the company computers).
    -The requirement is to check for posture only company owned wired, wireless, and VPN connected Windows computers. The rest of the endpoints should be considered as posture incompliant, and limited access to the network should be allowed.
    -No certificates are used.
    -I’ve configured the required posture check, and it all works fine if a PC has NAC Agent manually installed (without ISE Client Provisioning). However, when I use a PC without NAC Agent, it is redirected to Client Provisioning Portal and is stuck there as Client Provisioning is deliberately not configured in ISE.
    -If I remove Posture Remediation Authorization Profile that does URL redirect, the posture does not work.
    -For now I'm testing it on wired endpoints.
    Is there a way to configure ISE to fulfill the listed above requirements?
    Any ideas would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Val Rodionov

    Everyone who finds reads this article,
    I'm answering my own quesiton "Is it possible to run Posture using ISE 1.2 without NAC Agent provisioning?"
    The answer is Yes.
    After doing research and configuration testing I came up with a solution, and it works fine for wired and VPN connections. I expect it to work on wireless endpoints as well.
    ISE configuration:
    Posture General Settings - Default Posture Status = NonCompliant
    Client Provisioning Policy - no rules defined
    Posture Policy - configured per requirements
    Client Provisioning (under Administration > Settings) - Enable Provisioning = Enable (it was disabled in my first test)
    Authorization Policies configured as regular posture policies
    The result:
    After successful dot1x authentication posture redirect happens. If the PC does not have NAC Agent preinstalled, the browser is redirected to Client Provisioning Portal and a default ISE message is displayed (ISE is not able to apply and access policy... wait one minute and try to connect again...). At the same time, the endpoint is assigned NonCompliant posture status and proper authorization policy is applied. This is what I wanted to achieve.
    If NAC Agent was preinstalled on the PC, after successful dot1x authentication the NAC Agent pops up and performs posture check. If posture is successful, posture compliant authorization policy is applied. If posture check fails, NonCompliant posture status is assigned and posture non-compliant authorization policy is applied. Which is the expected and needed result.
    The only part that is not perfect it the message displayed to the end-user when posture is about to fail. I did not find a place to change the text of that message. I might need to open TAC case, so this file can be manually found and edited from CLI (root access).
    Best,

  • Can I run OS 10.6.x in Paralleles installed on a Mac running OS 10.7.2?

    Can I run OS 10.6.x in Paralleles installed on a Mac running OS 10.7.2?
    This question is related to my need to continuing using Quicken 2005, which is not supported by OS 10 7.2.  If I could load Mac OS 10.6.8 into Parallels and run Quicken 2006 in an emulated version of Mac OS, I could then run 10.7.2 and move onto iCloud.  I've looked at a couple of altehrnaftves to Quicken 2005 but none are as comprehensive as Quicken.

    Hi John,
    That is an interesting question, to which I don't know the answer. You might try it on a separate drive or partition and see how it works. I run Snow and Lion but on separate partitions on my internal HDD. If you try it please let us know how it works.

  • Is it possible to run a java application within a web browser?

    Hello everyone here! I have a question about running a java application within a web browser and I would appreciate it very much if anyone here can give me some answers.
    I have a standalone java application written with AWT. Basically this free application lets users to select spectral lines from a big file based on some criteria and plot those selected lines. Yes, it is a very simple application. Now I want to run this application within a web browser so that users don't need to download the application from the ftp site and thus don't need to install in their machine. Is it possible to run this application within browser? If yes, can we get the same plotting function as we run the application separately and where should I start out?
    Thanks in advance!
