Plz I Need Help With Getting Css To Work On Crossover
Two suggestions.

One: Please use some punctuation so it is easier to understand what you need help with.

Two: Do yourself a favor and either get VMware or Parallels, install Windows XP or Vista, and be happy. Crossover is okay, but there are many issues such as what you have discovered.

Also, be advised that on MacRumors we do not discuss ways to get around copy protection or how to acquire software, via downloads, that you do not own.

Uggh... :rolleyes::rolleyes: Please use proper punctuation (i.e. complete sentences, no run-on sentences) and capitalization of letters only when necessary. Reading your post is painful.

And buy VMware Fusion and ditch Crossover.

Why hate Apple because you chose an imperfect way of playing Windows games or is it because Apple isn't Windows?

Steam is a legitimate download service provided by the game publisher.

Don't use VMware for gaming. Minimal 3D support. If you want to game, then Crossover is a "maybe" and Boot Camp is a "yes."

(Except that my Mac IS a gaming machine, and does NOT play games in Windows :) Which means, of course, no CSS for me.)

VMWare and Parallels are superior to Boot Camp for many NON-gaming tasks of course.
