NEED HELP for LAN Games

wolfman · 17th July 2007, 18:10

Hi, I'm a newbie here. Need help for LAN Games. I'm using Bootcamp + Win XP Professional in my MacBook and would like to connect to PC's for a multi-player Starcraft

How can we do that?

Thanks in advance,

Wolfman

Have you gave it a try?

I think it is the same as a native PC with XP....I mean, it shouldn't be different on a Mac running XP.

Like iDubai said, if you're in Windows XP with BootCamp it should be no different than a regular PC.

Hi there and thank you for the reply. yes I tried a lot of times but I fail. The thing is I'm not a PC person especially in networking. I'm a Mac user ever since and every time we play multi-player in starcraft via ethernet cable (Mac to Mac portables) it's so smooth. Just maybe I need a PC network guy to do that.

Anyway guys, thank you so much. love this site for a Mac user in UAE.

I do use my macbookpro and bootcamp to play pc games in multiplayer lan parties .. and it works like a charm ...

i used lan ... (i.e. wired network) and wireless and they both worked ..
just connect to the router by rj45 or wirelessly .. and viola ..

specify more about the setting s and problem you have ...
