Hi Guys,
Yesterday, while looking into possible alternatives to flash my video card (ATI Radeon R9 280X Dual-X) I tried to download WinNsX 64 from the App Store. This app is supposed to let you run Windows exe's in OS X. (Was hoping to run ATI Flash)
Now, I have downloaded, upgraded, etc. other apps with no problems since the Mojave install. This App, however, keeps freezing my Mac Pro up whenever I try to get it from the App store. After multiple tries to restart the download (Launchpad says it is paused) it locks up the system every time, and I have to press the 'on' button for 6 seconds to shut down the system. I even moved the icon from the applications folder (it did install the icon, even before the download was complete) to the trash, but it still didn't get rid of the status bar below the Launchpad tray Icon. Matter of fact, it is still there! In Launchpad, it is a stitched outline of an icon, and says 'paused' inside of it. I am not sure what to do about this. Has anyone else had issues with this type of problem? I think it may have to do with Mojave, as never had any problems with High Sierra before this. When I tried downloading it to begin with, I had turned off SIP to try and flash my video card... could this app have done something to the system due to SIP being disabled? I have since re-enabled SIP.
BTW- I have found that my ATI Radeon HD5770 stock Mac video card will boot up Mojave after it is installed with the R9 280x Dual-X metal card I have... and it allows me to CMD R into restore.
Thanks!
Charlie
