Adding Free Space

Post by saibot216 »

How to I add memory? I'm trying to install Driver and Diablo 2 and I don't have enough memory for either one.

Memory? Like RAM?

Or more space on your hard disk image?

Consult the setup guide:

You can adjust the RAM in the setup GUI. Also you can just create a NEW hard disk image to install your programs to... again in the GUI.

For the record, I don't really think that you're going to get either of those games running. They probably require the emulation of some 3D hardware that SheepShaver doesn't provide.

But do give it a try.

A lot of members use SheepShaver for games where something like Crossover might be a better choice (if you are willing to buy or acquire the Windows version of the game):

Yeah, Sheepshaver quit once I tried to run the "Glide" version of Driver because it said a voodoo graphics card was detected.

UPDATE: Sheepshaver did get Diablo 2 to run.

Can you tell us what you needed to do to get it running?

Best,

The first one I installed that couldn't run and I doubt will was Driver. Last night I just installed and ran Diablo 2 and that worked fine, I didn't have to do anything to it.
