Rom & Radio Upgrading On Intel Mac

[hdd123]

I am a fully signed up Mac owner but have no intension of going down the iPhone route as the Hermes does everything (and more) that I want and continues to be ever adaptable and user friendly - thanks to the great chefs, past and present who frequent this forum :)

Until now, I had access to a PC to flash the various offerings of the good cooks but all this has changed! I have tried to flash ROMs using an Intel Mac running XP but for whatever reason the .exe program will not run.

Does anyone know why this is and more importantly, what I can do to get the .exe ROM installer program to run on WinXP/Mac?

Thanks

You may need to install the .net framework. Works fine on XP in bootcamp and through Parallels on my Mac-tel.

Yes, you will need the .NET framewotk version 2.0 or higher.

Thanks for your help with issue - there's always an answer available from the forum.

Thanx

I just extract the .exe file using StuffIt Expander and flash the .IMG file using the SD card method (drag and drop download to device via Missing Sync). Works much faster than PC-based flashing.
