I'm new to this.. well i'll try to explain me, my english is not very good. i've got a Macintosh OSX 10.8.5 and i have a problem. i'm trying to install and play World Of Warcraft : Wrath of the Lich King, and i downloaded Darwine for it to run. Somehow when i opened wow popped up something that said: "you can't rune "WineHelper" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported", and i searched for a solution, and someone recommended me to download BOINC and now i'm here, i don't know how to repair my problem, and i downloaded a program that i don't know how to use. I created a project at SETI@home because every page i saw trying to repair my problem said something about it... Please help me!!! Greetings :) Daniela ID: 1442628 ·

Unless you want to go back to OS X 10.6, you are out of luck running anything that was coded for the Power PC. 10.6 had an app called rosetta that would let you run power pc app on a Intel CPU, but Apple no longer included it in the newer OX. Sorry. BOINC will not help. ID: 1442652 ·

Greetings :) Daniela I think you will actually want this one as it runs on newer system. http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-index.php Why some one recommended BOINC for running an game makes me question quite a few things about them. Creo que realmente quieren este, ya que se ejecuta en el sistema nuevo. Â¿Por quÃ© alguien recomendado BOINC para el funcionamiento de un juego me hace cuestionar unas cuantas cosas acerca de ellos. http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=en&tl=es&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwineskin.urgesoftware.com%2Ftiki-index.php&act=url ID: 1442699 ·

Unfortunately that game isn't going to run on 10.85. You'd have to go back to 10.5 or 10.6 and build a partition around that OS to play that game. I'm not even certain you'd get great performance running that game that way. Sorry - at least I'd say it's worth a try though. ID: 1456633 ·
