smoothly in what sense? Gaming? Photoshop? Or what? Please be more specific

For built-in graphics, best is to used either intel GMA900/950. Other than that, less chance to be able to work.

Just normal operation, definitely not gaming. Thanks

how about ge force 7400? will it works on laptop which has this kinda gf?

Girlfriend?

he means Ge Force

You can try.. No harm anyway

With GMA 900/950 --> You get full hardware acceleration

GF 7400 --> Supported but I am not sure if the bulit-in LCD would work or not

it has to be a fat32 partition in order to install?

what if im using unallocated partition

This post has been edited by rice: May 31 2007, 09:55 PM

its should be mac os extended (journaled)

ya u can use ur unallocated partiton and format it as mac os extended (journaled)
u need at least 5GB

what i dont understand is nothing shown in installation destination windows,though i had unallocated space in my hdd.

another thing,i have to format it by using partition magic first or just using osx86 alone?

In order to install mac osx, the partition MUST be in mac journaled. Since mac only can write on fat32, so you can use partition magic to format it into fat32. Then, boot the hacktinosh dvd and format that fat32 into mac format.

problem solved,thanks

Another question came T_T

after installed osx,i'd reboot it but it appeared some messages like "you have to reboot,turn off"

any solutions for that problem?

specs

i've created a 10gb journaled partition for osx and another 30gb ntfs for windows xp

Just noticed there is one thread here today
Anyway, my hackintosh is up and running few days ago on my AMD Opteron with ATi X800XL

I thought i read somewhere that OS X need a whole drive and a single partition wont work? It actually works ??

I installed mine through VM Ware, a whole HDD, then reboot, viola, boots into OS X.

But a bit disappointing because my built in ethernet is not supported

u got a kernel panic

u should select the custom install during the installation and only select the option that specific for ur hardware

it means you can't just tick all those box and have to choose accordingly to your specs?

Not really. I got vista and hackintosh running on the same hdd. Just need some tweaking

yep. Don't simply check all the boxes. Check those boxes according to your rig

So that it can save your hdd space.

i've succeed installing osx
,but this thing came out again.Ive tried ticking those boxes accordingly but still this occured

Try to ask in Insanely Mac Forum or search in the wiki of osx86 or their IRC
