Mac problems, vcredist_x86 , is it replaceable?

Hello!

 

I have a game on my mac which is supposed to run on windows but i use "Wine" program to run winrar and the game.

 

So i tried to install Vcredist on all ways which works with Wine but it do not work?

 

I heard that there is other program which can replace it, winetricks vcrun2005 vcrun2008 .

 

Something with Winetricks?, but i dont really understand?

 

Can someone help?

You can dualboot windows and Mac OSX on a single harddrive. I have a 750GB in mine and i have a 500GB partition for windows and 250GB for Mac OSX. I have no experience with wine, sorry.

You have OSX on it, not Macintosh, but that aside, as long as you have an Intel-based Mac, you can dualboot. Open finder and search for BootCamp, it'll guide you through the process. Forget Wine, if you really want to stay within OSX, get some virtualisation software, like VMWare or Parallels Desktop or something

Just start the Bootcamp assistant. It will guide you through the whole process.

No data lost.
