Q Emulator for PowerPC G5 (setup.exe instead of an installation disk)

I recently downloaded the "Q" Emulator for my Mac, and I am now at the point of installing an OS as my Guest PC. The only problem is, I don't have an official Windows XP installation disk, but I do have a burned disk with all the necessary components compressed into a ZIP file. I expanded the file, and found all those components; however, Q won't recognize the disk as a bootable drive, nor will it recognize the .exe file as anything important. I'm wondering if there's a way to run XP from that file or the disk using Q, or if it's hopeless and I should just buy an installation disk. I appreciate any advice or comments. Thank you.

Hi,
first of: I haven't ever used Q.
From what I get form here: http://trac.kju-app.org/wiki/WindowsXPServicePackTwo Q needs a bootable XP CD in order to install it.
But your ZIP archive seems to only include the files from the XP CD and lacks the neccessary boot sector.
The boot sector can only be obtained from a XP CD, so you are stucked.
Try to borrow a XP CD from a friend and install from it while using your own license key.

  • Does anybody know how to get the license for Adobe LiveCycle if i dont have the installation disk?

    Hi,
    I no longer have the installation disk for Adobe LiveCycle and i need to install it onto a different PC due to upgrading hardware etc... Does anybody know how to recover the licence for the version of Adobe LiveCycle we have? Can it be found in the registry or anything?
    Thanks.

    Sorry, but Apple does not provide technical support via email, so they have no published email addresses. You will need to find a way to call them. Or make an appointment with the Genius Bar at an Apple Store, if there are any near you, and have them follow up.

    Salut,
    Il y a une section FR c'est mieux si tu postes en français.
    Sinon une fois ton exe construit.
    Dans build specifications, click droit new=>installer
    sa ouvre une fenetre ou tu pourras configurer ton installeur, qui fera ce que tu souhaites
    prend bien le temps de lire ce qui est demandé et placer les fichiers sources au bon endroit.

  • Reinstall Ilife on mac os x lion via mac Appstore instead from installation disk.

    I did a clean install of lion now I (of course) need to install ilife again. I'd like to install it from the mac app store instead from the installation disk but that proves impossible. Is there a way to install ilife from the mac appstore instead from the installation disk?

    It happen the same to me.  I had a lot of problem after i upgrade from snow leopard to Lion and decided to do a clean install.
    Before that i did a time capsule back.
    After the clean install i didnt had my ilife apps that i had presintalled when i bought my mac.
    So i was wondering if they can do it in a service center or just simple download them from the app store.

  • How do I install Netgear XE102 on my iMac?  It will not install off of the cd provided it appears to be only for Windows based computers.  Checked Netgear website and could not find a setup.exe file for Mac.

    Unable to install Netgear XE102 on my iMac.  Checked Netgear website and could not find a setup.exe file for Mac.

    That means either no software needs to be installed on a Mac or the product is incompatible with Macs. Contact NetGear tech support for help.

  • New setup.exe for Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Pro

    Per http://www.adobe.com/go/kb403246, there's a new setup.exe to let you install "all" updates to AAPro8.0 at initial install time.
    Does this also include installing the Security Update 1 for 8.1.2, or, does that still have to be done separately?
    Thanks.

    Yes on both accounts. We're running Sophos and I've shut down the process that auto-starts and runs it in the background. The user herself is an administrator and I've tried both on her account and the root workstation administrator with no success.

    Run the EXE file after keeping all the files in same folder. It will extract all of the files in the same folder and then you will get the exe file in extracted folder. This is for the core BO server. For rest of the components like widgets you have to extract the file and manuallt run setup.exe.

  • What is different between setup.exe and ezsetup.exe for iPlanet Application server 6.0 SP3?

    iPlanet Application server 6.0 SP3 for windows versions.

    Hi,
    setup.exe has 3 types of installation modes, namely, express, typical and custom. But the ezsetup doesn't asks these questions. The difference between them are..
    Setup.exe - Express - Asks fewer questions like, iAS username password, directory server username, password, product key etc
    Setup.exe - Typical - Asks for same questions as of Express setup and few more additional questions and allows you to install iAS and use a directory server which is already installed.
    Setup.exe - Custom - The most complicated and the highly interactive installation where it requiress 32-33 inputs from the user and fully customisable.
    EzSetup.Exe - Doesn't have any sub option, doesn't allow you to use the existing directory server or web server, all it asks is 2 questions..., which directory to install and the product key.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards

  • Running setup.exe for v10.1.3.1-to-v10.1.3.4 before or after DB-sql-update?

    When I want to update an v10.1.3.1 SoaSuite to v10.1.3.4 I have to do 2 main things:
    a) updating the SoaSuite installation itself and
    b) updating the Oracle-DB-DB tables
    What do I have to do at first:
    runing setup.exe (=a) or applying table updates (=b)?
    Or is this equal?
    Peter

    is the sql script there for updating your own tables or tables of the soa suite repository (esb/bpel/etc) ?
    if it's the first, then those 2 won't have much to do with each other.
    if it's the second then the db scripts are post-installation steps, so you first need to apply the patch and after that execute the sql scripts

    I like it ! NI is the best, if you don´t want to work with it.
    Das ist nicht gerade eine qualifizierte Aussage.
    Dennoch könnten Sie die Advanced File I/O Funktionen nutzen um sich schnell ein VI zusammenzubauen welches genau diesen Ordner innerhalb eines Stammverzeichnisses , so wie Sie es ja anscheinend angelegt haben, in den gewünschten Namen ändert.

  • Where is the bootstrapper version of setup.exe for Acrobat 9?

    It seems to be hidden away.  I can only find it for 7 and 8 and a search is sending me to dead links on the Adobe site.  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/507/cpsid_50757.html
    I tried chaining an Acrobat 9 installation with all th updates using the setup.exe that comes with it and it doesn't work.

    Every time I get iPhoto version 9.something, it says I can't install it because I don't have the previous one. Where can I get the right version?
    I think I bought 9.2 at the apple store online.
    I don't understand why my question was marked "answered" - I need more information. You've been helpful, but I still need some answers.
