Will Diablo 2 work in parallels even if I'm using an Intel GMA X3100?

I know that Diablo 2 won't work normally (without downloading extra software) in 10.5.5 with the Intel GMA X3100. Will Diablo work in parallels with these settings though? How about in boot camp? How about in 10.5.6? This is on my refurbished macbook.

Seriously... I feel like banging down apple's doors since my family and i are longtime users and I just purchased a copy of DII and the expansion for my boyfriend since it works on my brand new macbook eco but not on his plain white macbook... what the **** apple... seriously fix the 256 graf problem please??? why didn't the 10.5.6 update work for him and why haven't they fixed it??? The game won't even open for him... it just quits... and apple employees can't even step up and answer a post... bad for Apple bad form...
Its almost enough to make one buy a pc next time.

  • Will Diablo 2 work in bootcamp or parallels with the Intel GMA X3100?

    I have the Intel GMA X3100 graphics card on my new macbook which seems to be incompatible with Diablo 2. Usually you have to install a beta copy to run it, which is incompatible with Battle.net. If I install parallels or boot camp, will I be able to play Diablo 2 on battle.net?

    You need to use the Diablo II native installer.
    http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?articleId=20758
    So, you download it, run it, and it will ask you to insert your play discs.
    But for myself that didn't work. The game was originally written for OS 9 so it seems to have issues I think.
    If that native installer doesn't work then you can install windows on boot camp. All you need is a copy of XP SP2 disc or Vista SP1. Then you can run the boot camp utility (That will create disc space for windows, or called partitioning). I would recommend running any games in boot camp than parallels/VMware fusion. In virtualization(What parallels/VMware does) you're running windows on top of OS X, which eats up a lot more hardware resources.

    MacBook Pro i5 with retina will not recognize WD Passport even though I successfully used it to transfer programs and files from my older MacBook ten days ago. It receives power from the USB, but when using Time Machine I receive the message that there is not an external device connected.

    If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
    Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues.

  • Will windows os under parallels migrate to new mac using migration assistant

    I have been using parallels 7 with windows 7 on a 2008 macbook pro. I have gotten a new 2012 macbook pro and plan to use migration assistant. Will windows install without my having to call Microsoft? I also have Office 2010 and wonder if I need to call Microsoft to allow me to use it on the new MacBook?
    I have made a clone of my older computer. I have done Time Machine also

    Migration Assistant only migrates - it does not delete anything from the 'other' machine.
    Good luck,

  • HT1386 Iphone 5S will not synch with Itunes, even thoug both are using most current updates

    I cannot get Itunes to recognize ( synch) with my new iphone 5s.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes, rebooting both the computer and the phone and even wiping and restoring the phone.  I've checked the bonjour program is running, Itunes is allowed through my firewall and run the Itunes diagnostics.  Could it be because my Ipad has the same apple id?  It seems to keep wanting to look for the ipad.

  • 1.4 - Important sites will not work & why are the AIM / Facebook contacts integrated with my phone contacts?

    Two issues I am having with my phone.
    1 - Before upgrading to the 1.4 software patch, I was able to visit some sites that I use regularly, one being www.hotschedules.com. I bartend and use my phone to look at my weekly schedule but now it will not work. Just to test it, I used a buddies phone who had not upgraded to 1.4 and the site opened JUST FINE!
    2 - I want to use facebook and AIM on my phone but for some (stupid?) reason, ALL of my facebook and aim contacts get listed in the SAME LIST as my phone contacts. I do NOT want to scroll through hundreds of contacts to find someone. Yes I know there are shortcuts but why even do this in the first place?

    Hello eculley and welcome to the forums;
    I attempted the website you mentioned, and it loaded fine on 1.4.1.1 on my Sprint Pre. We did identify some issues with websites on 1.4, and this should be resolved with 1.4.1. I know 1.4.1 is not available for Verizon yet, however it should be available soon.
    As for Facebook contacts, they show in the Synergy contact list by design, so that you can see all of your contacts in one master list. If you do not want those contacts showing in your Contacts app, you can open Preferences & Accounts for contacts and remove any account you don't want to see contacts for.
    Hope this helps!

  • Will Verizon work on a Wirefly Phone?

    Just wondering if I buy a phone from Wirefly and then, let's say 14 months from now the phone starts screwing up in some way can I take it into a Verizon store and will they work on it even though I bought it at Wirefly. 
    I always bought my other phones through Verizon and through the years I've had a couple problems that were simply solved by taking it back into the Verizon store and having them work on it.
    I've been told that Verizon would work on the phone from Wirefly as long as it is under contract with them, but I'd like to make sure of that.
    What's the word?

    Yes,. you can take Wirefly phones to Verizon for assistance.  Wirefly is happy to assist you within the first 30 days. 
    The phones you order from Wirefly are the exact same devices you'd get from going to a  Verizon  carrier retail store. In fact, as the internet's #1 authorized dealer for Verizon Wireless we only activate devices from certified carrier distributors. Every device has a full U.S. warranty, and is never refurbished unless explicitly sold as such.

  • How can I get a sim card for Japan and will it work with my locked Iphone 6

    How can I get a sim card for Japan and will it work with my locked Iphone 6

    You cannot use a SIM card on a carrier locaked phone, other than a sim from the carrier the phone is locked to. You must first get the carrier it is locked to, to unlock your phone. Apple does not unlock phones.

  • Popup toolbar will not work.

    The new fangled popup toolbar, or whatever it's called, when I'm trying to read a PDF will not work on my computer.  I'm using the latest reader and the thing pops up, but that's all it will do. I can't get it to zoom, print, save, or change pages.
    If I  understand  correctly, Reader works through IE and I do have several customized security settings in IE, so if anyone knows which one might be blocking the popup bar, please tell me. I don't want to use all of IE's default settings so don't bother suggesting that.

    Thanks for reporting! A good find!

    With the latest upgrade (again) of Firefox 9.0.1 Trend Micro will not work and cannot be enabled. I use Trend Micro Titanium Maximum 2012. This feature worked fine before the latest upgrade. Why can't Firefox at least try to beta test their latest and greatest before problems like this happen?

  • Installed ios 6 on new iPad and siri will not work.

    Good morning, I installed ios6 on the new iPad and siri will not work. Each time I try to use siri she says "uh oh, I'm having a problem. Please try again. I have tried turning siri off and back on again. Resetting the iPad, resetting the network, turning Airplane Mode off and on again. All to know avail. My iphone 5 works great and so does my wife's iphone 4s with ios6. I have called Apple support but there only suggestion was that the servers were busy. If that was the case my other devices would not work either. Plus the servers wouldn't be busy for four days. Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. I was looking forward to using siri on the new iPad and other folks don't seem to be having a problem.
    Thanks, and have a great day.

    Then you need to change your device details as this still says iPad2.
    It's very possible Apple's servers have been busy for 4 days as not everyone downloaded iOS 6 on the day it was announced. I downloaded it last Friday, myself, as an example.
    There are a millions and millions of people using Apple iDevices.
    Just because everything went fine with the iOS 6 updates of your iPhone 4 and 5 doesn't mean something couldn't have gone wrong with an update to your iPad3
    If the iOS update missed something during the download, I am not sure how to go about re-downloading iOS 6 to fix the issue you are having.
