Hi,

To be able help you, some more info is needed.
I assume you are running on windows? Have your activated a network card in the config file? Which one did you select. Have you also got the VPN tap driver installed? Do you share your host's network connection or have you set them to bridge?

Hi, Cat7. Thanks for the fast reply. i am running winblows XP pro sp3. i installed the tap driver seriously dint know i needed something like that until you mentioned it. I had the conection bridged due to my isp being kinda stupid bout networks at home with out paying extra money for a network package. but the error is gone now and im just having an issue with actully setting up my bridged connection for internet. If you know or have a step by step how to guide uploaded please give me the link will be more than glad not to bother you to much. 8)


Thanks Cat_7

Ah,

That direction would include visiting www.insanelymac.com , I imagine?
Your current hardware might have some problems with getting the video card running.

Yes,

Sure. I have been running a hackintosh from the early start :lol: Not that I know much about it, but I bought compatible hardware last time my computer was up for replacement.
