I have installed G4 in windows using vmware fusion. the problem I'm having is that when I run G4, it says there is a problem with my video card. I don't think i have a video card. can someone explain to me what i will need to do to get this running???

Bootcamp is the only one which will work.

It will NOT work in a virtual machine environment.

For right now, neither Parallels nor Fusion offers DirectX 9 support, which RealFlight requires. Unfortunately, Boot Camp is the only way to run RealFlight on a Mac.

I feel your pain. I have a Mac at home, and it's a shame that I'm going to have to go out and buy a Windows license to show off my work to my friends.

you had better ask Santa for an OEM disk of XP soon (that was the cheapest option for me to be to get G4 to run on my macbook pro)
