can someone PLEASE help me ive been working at this for hours and hours and finally i think i found a loophole..
im trying to run kai photo soap which is an old windows/classic mac program from an install CD that i have.
When i insert the install CD into my macbook, the ".exe" windows files does not show up....thus preventing me from trying to use Darwine to run the ".exe" set up...
the only files that show up on the CD are the classic mac install files....as shown here
which i then have to use an emulator to run...went thru two different emulators needless to say...the interface on the emulator is too sluggish and ultimately did not run the program
then i got an idea that i would put the install cd into a PC and copy all the necessary install .exe files from the cd and put it on a flash drive....i then used the flash drive on my pc and VOILA! all the .exe files are there .
i clicked on the "soap.exe" file and it started running via darwine
i was so happy but then it said this
UGH! so were back to square 1!
my question is HOW can i get my macbook to make the "soap.exe" file show up on my install cd so that i can install the program?
its reading all the mac related files by default and ignoring the window files i want it to recognize the window files in the cd so i can click on the soap.exe file...
is there a way i can somehow force my computer to run the soap.exe file from the cd??
PLS HELP!
