I'm attempting my 3rd try. Hopefully it will work. Jason, I was following those instructions. I get what to do... its just that the CD key is not working.
Edit: CD key not working. I guess I'll try to get a refund. I doubt they will give me it because I made a mistake.
Update: I left the product key blank and my product key worked when I went to start--> computer--> properties--> activate my windows
Update: I installed "Mafia" but it won't play. I get an error message: "Init error 4205 generic..." SIGH! Also the sound doesn't work. I'm stuck on step #17 here
http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/01/1...ndows-7-on-your-mac-the-complete-walkthrough/ in that window, I see speakers but when I do the playback, I hear nothing. I also don't know what to do to make the computer ask for my MAC OS X disc (Step #18). Also, when I plug in my mouse, it doesn't work.
Update: It won't let me play "Soldiers of Fortune 2: Double Helix multiplayer demo" either....
