install Windows 8 on a Mac mini

Hi all

To avoid installation of Windows 8 on my iMac, I intend to use a Mac mini accessed via Firewire in the 'big Mac '.

What are the problems, if any, or things against this operation mods?

Nice day

GeTe

You want to run Windows Setup on the Mini via a Firewire connection to the iMac? If so, it will not work. There are far too many complications to enable this. It may be better to use Microsoft Remote Desktop to access the Mini as a remote Windows computer.

  • Can I install Windows Journal on a Mac computer?

    Can I install Windows Journal on a Mac computer?  I currently use Windows Journal to teach by posting paper documents on a smart board.  The administration requires me to switch to a Mac, but I don't want to lose the Journal and its capabilities.  I will not need to use a pen on the computer, I use the stylus on the smart board.  I would buy the windows software of newspaper and try to download on a Mac.  Can I order windows software log?

    You have two problems here:

    1. Programs Windows cannot be installed on a Mac.
    2. Windows Journal is not available as a separate program.

    If the Administration allows it, you can install Windows on a Mac with Mac OS X. Then, there are two ways to access the applications Windows explained here:

    You can buy a copy of Windows to do this.

  • I installed windows 7 on a mac with boot camp and then used parallels to create a virtual machine to run windows inside Mac os10.6. Now he says I need to activate windows again, but he said I need a new activation key. Any ideas would be appreciated

    Yes, you must purchase a full license for the second installation of Windows 7 product key.  1 activation allows only one Windows 7 product key.  Apparently, you now have a second facility that requires a second product key. Carey Frisch

  • How to install windows 95 on your Mac?

    Hello

    Newbie here.  I'm new to vmware and has difficulties to install windows 95 on a Mac.  I have a software CD drive operational windows 95 in the player of the mac and when I try and create a new virtual machine I get the following errors:

    PXE - EA0: network boot canceled by strike

    PXE - MOF: Exit Intel PXE Rom

    Operating system not found

    File name of boot PXE - E53 No. received

    Any suggestions on how to install the windows 95 CD-ROM?

    Thank you.

    Generally installation Windows 95 (or any other OS) on a Virtual Machine is fundamentally not different then install on a physical Machine, to act accordingly.

    If the Windows 95 disk is not bootable, which is quite normal, then you will need to start the Virtual Machine with the configuration Windows 95 diskette accompanying usually when it was bought at the time.  In addition you may need to the first partition and format the hard drive before you actually begin the installation of the operating system.  Note: Since your Mac does not have a floppy drive that you will need to use an image of the disk by either using a USB attached floppy drive you're Mac or from another Machine that has a floppy drive.

    BTW, Windows 95 does not work to well under VMware Fusion.

  • Can I install Snow Leopard on a Mac Mini 2008

    Hello.

    I have a Mac Mini 2008 with the info printed on the envelope:

    Mini Mac 2.53/2X2G/320/SDI/AP/BT

    Model no. A1283 2008

    I tried to install Snow Leopard using the gray installation disc supplied with my Macbook Pro.

    It didn't work, probably because the drive is linked to my MBP (I guess).

    So now I think ordering setup of Snow Leopard on the Apple store instead:
    http://www.Apple.com/shop/product/MC573Z/A/Mac-OS-x-106-Snow-Leopard

    But I'm not 100% sure if the previous failure, I had was really just because of the gray drive or the Mac Mini 2008 does not support Snow Leopard.

    Hope someone can give me the answer, so I'm not an unnecessary purchase.

    Thank you!

    This is because the gray disc is specific to your model of MacBook Pro. Any Mac that has an Intel processor, at least 1 GB of RAM and running 10.4 or 10.5 can run 10.6.

  • Install OSX no server on Mac Mini "Server"?

    I have the opportunity to buy a Mac Mini "Server" 2012, or a regular 2012 Mac Mini. Both are clocked at 2.6 Ghz i7, with ram of 4 GB, but the ordinary non-server Mac Mini is much more expensive. My question is, if I could reinstall OSX (El Capitan), without a trace of any server software and use it as you would with a regular mac mini. I'm kinda new to Mac, and I think that a mac mini would be the most cost-effective method to penetrate the mac-i-verse.

    Thanks for any help!

    Yes, you can.

  • Screen is dark after I installed Windows 7 on the Mac OS x partition

    I recently managed to install Windows 7 on my Macbook using Bootcamp and the partitioning of the hard drive.  I downloaded the software Microsoft updates after installation via a USB and the resolution improved after the restart.  Then all of a sudden the screen dimmed to 10% light and F1/F2 keys do not improve it.  I had trouble finding the display window and the light was already facing all the way up.

    I can't do anything with the brightness being so low and try to solve it will be a fight.  Can someone direct me to a solution?

    You should check the Web site of apples for the latest boot camp drivers.

  • Re-installing Windows 10 on Satellite click Mini

    I'm doing a clean reinstall of win 10 on my Toshiba mini click, after a day struggling with the recurring 'auto' loop repair I have my USB, but... When I get to the screen of the new facility, the keyboard, or work on touch screen, it is impossible to press the button "continue".

    I have exactly the same problem. Windows 10 worked one day then crashed and now start the loop and the keyboard is not responding and the touch screen.

  • Can I install Windows 7 on Satellite click Mini L9W - B and use the touch screen?

    Is it possible to install Win 7 32 bit on a satellite click and it will always work to use the screen in the form of tablets?
    I'll buy this one for my dental practice and the intraoral cam maintains that Win 7 32 bit.

    Are you sure that it will not work with Windows 7? Usually there are problems with the software XP and Windows 7/8, but if it works with Windows 7 there is a good chance that it will work with Windows 8. If the software is the issue that you may be able to run the program in compatibility mode Windows 7.
