SOURCE: Installing the jumpstart advanced 1stgrade cd rom

Jumpstart advanced 1stgrade cd rom installation.

System Requirements
Windows: 98/ME/2000/XP; Pentium II 266MHz (Pentium II 300MHz or faster for XP); 64 MB RAM (128 MB RAM for XP); 100 MB HD; 12x CD-ROM drive; 16-Bit color; Windows compatible sound card

If you are installing on a newer OS ie Vista, or Win 7, due to software incompatibility the software might not install, or even you can install the software might no work.

You can try using the "compatibility mode" in Vista or Win 7 to install the programs as "administrator" but no guarante this will work.

Alternatively, you can get a newer version which is compatible to your Operating System.

Hope it helps.

SOURCE: How to delete names on Jump Start Advanced 1st

The Knowledge Adventure page makes this suggestion:

Recommendations:
· JumpStart: Most of the JumpStart programs have a keystroke combination like CTRL+D+D to delete one user at a time from the sign in screen. See the manual for more information regarding the software. Other JumpStart programs have a delete button directly on the sign in screen.

CTRL+D+D didn't work for me on JumpStart Kindergarten, but CTRL+ Delete did!

How do I run the cd on windows 8

You can put the CD in and use file manager or "explorer" to click on the drive letter that is the CD drive. if you have the proper application/software to play the type of CD (like a music CD, or a video CD) then it should pull up the CD in that application. Or, it will ask you what application you want to use to open the files on the CD with.

I'm trying to install a Lexmark X5150 printer but I'm getting an error message.

Your Mac is an Intel-based computer (see About this Mac in Apple menu), but the software to setup the printer was produced a long time ago for Macs that had PowerPC processors. Apple hasn't support PowerPC Macs since OS X 10.4 (Tiger). If you really need supporting utilities for the printer, search for "Lexmark X5100 for Intel Mac" on the web.

My Nancy Drew computer game won't work

Hi longview924,

Unfortunately there is no way to make that game run on your mac. Your mac uses the older powerPC architecture (all G3, G4 and G5 macintosh machines use this architecture) but the game requires that you have a mac using the newer intel architecture.

I found the details of the system requirements here:
http://www.buzz99.com/1167/nancy-drew-trail-of-the-twister-system-requirements/

Intel and PowerPC processors are very different in how they work (Intel chips are CISC chips and powerPC chips are RISC chips), which is why there is no way around it. This is also the reason why apple dropped support for the powerPC architecture in mac OS 10.6 upwards.

Without meaning to sound harsh, it may be time to consider an upgrade - macs are very expensive but the intel macbooks are leaps and bounds faster than the powerPC range :)

Can't figure out how to download "jumpstart" on Mac. Won't open .exe files when I try to run.

.exe files are PC files. The only way to get the program running is to setup BootCamp with XP or Windows 7

OR you can use a program like Parallels

Hope this info helps!

I have installed the Wacom disk (Pen Tablet Driver) and it is not in my applications folder. I have a Mac and when I go to system preferences under 'Other' it shows Wacom Tablet. I click on it and it...

It sounds like you're running an older Mac based on their legacy PowerPC processors, which aren't compatible with software designed for their newer Intel-based series. The last version of Mac OS X to support the PowerPC line of computers was OS X 10.5.8 Snow Leopard.

If you want to be able to open the Wacom application, you'll either need an older version compiled for PowerPC or, more likely, you'll need to purchase a newer Mac, either new or secondhand.
