Guys,

I have been reading up about running mac since I bought my new PC. I ran VMware but it could not detect my mouse. Says it cannot install the mouse because host is running it.

I was really thinking I could run parallel windows and mac. This is my system:
MSI P67A-C45 Motherboard
Intel Core i5-2500k
Gigabyte AMD Radeon 6850
4GB DDR3 Ram

If cant use virtualisation, what about dual boot? Please let me know where to look for tutorials also, thanks.

Thanks @wiraone,

If I am to go ahead straight with Lion, will I need iBoot, BridgeHelper and MultiBeast?

How about dual boot, what would I need to do?

Hi,

I just got to run the vmware version of Lion OS. I want to install Unibeast on my pen drive and dual boot it. But my dmg file is already in the /Applications like in the tonymac guide, but the Unibeast installation fails, and when checked in forums, they said I have to purchase original Lion OS. Is there other ways? Tq guys, have been trying hard and for so long time already. Haih...

@tot31,

Still can't Unibeast failed. Create the folder already, change to .app, then still cannot complete. I used the original file name, "h-ml1072.dmg", then changed to "InstallESD.dmg" also cannot work.

Should I try other installers?

Try booting with -v option and see where it stuck. Might be your graphics card, might be something else.
