any nvidia gc will do bro..9400 and 120gt and 210gt much easy..bcoz they are used on imac.. this is from my reading only..hehe

just bought Magic Trackpad for my hackintosh. :!~~

any budget laptop around RM1 to 2k++ that fully support hackintosh?

nice bro..im also on my way to buy that magic track pad..cool stuff..

guys,

I've been hunting bluetooth adapter at the market that is compatible with mac osx but so far, seller cannot confirm anything about whether the adapter can be run on mac osx or not. all is windows compatible only.

therefore, can anyone confirm whether the china made brand usb adapter for bluetooth that is available at the market right now is working very well with the mac osx 10.6.7

i cannot buy now due to no warranty or refund can be given by the seller if this is not working on mac osx.

hope you guys can advise.

thanks.

nobody can confirm what works or what not on china made adapter .. check HCL list

hmmm probably should stretch abit more to 1500
i have a sweet 24" hp to pair it with.
the donor pc is a AMD based system.

just buy second hand item bro..cheaper..
a forumer want to sell his stuff at cheaper price..u can always customized lor..easy..

Agreed, buying seconds is another way to save your budget since many have probably gone up to sandy bridge setup now.. so probably, you can find lot of them want to let go their current system/setup.

The main ingredient in cooking up hackintosh system is .. to check if someone has the same combination as the system we intend to run, running without a hitch .. what I did when I tried to build up my system before is to look for motherboard, processor, graphics card combination that someone has it working before (tonymac/insanelymac forums are really really helpful .. don't ask, lurk around, read.. read.. and read). When you've everything in your mind, then share with us here and someone could double check if the combination will work. But luck can be one important thing to consider too.. I wasted a motherboard because someone got it working, yes, I got it working too.. but not 100% as expected.. the asus p8p67 le that I've in a box now.. it installed fine, work fine, everything seems to be fine .. but .. when I shutdown the OS, after few seconds, the pc restart itself.

thanks for the guide, it helped me a lot. managed to get the cambridge bluetooth chipset that is compatible with mac osx. so far so good, no hangg or whatsoever. rm18 only the bluetooth adapter

wahh. what brand? where u buy?

digital mall pj. vztec, got mac logo and say compatible with mac os 10.1 like that.

ISSC chips are not compatible

Anyway if you have bought a CSL bluetooth dongle , you may have to bless it fully to apple compatible adapter , read it over at my blog

ISSC stuff does not work (el cheapo china brand bluetooth). If you can find D-link bluetooth adapter (Costs like RM 65) , get that

I was wondering if laptops with Nvidia Optimus with Sandy Bridge can be hackintosh'd?

INTEL WIFI 4xxx - 5xxx will not works in hackintosh ~~
google "Multibeast" download it and apply the driver accordingly.

my cuz is stuck hackintoshing an acer aspire 4750..

in the same time he managed to setup 10.6.7 on a sandy bridge 2600k + h67ma + 5770 + cheapo bt dongle + firewire800 card with a few hiccups.. cpu speed had to be downclocked to a 3.2ghz. anyone could help out?

Wa, why i7 2600k with h67? If he want to overclock, should use p67 motherboard instead. Most sandy bridge motherboards have problem with the basic multiplier, you need to bring it down.. To push them back up, use the turbo speed, no idea if h67 has this feature but I believe only available for p67 for now.

as of that time budget was waaay too limited.

any new affordable p67 boards with full compatibility with os x?

Check tonymac sandybridge forum at http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewforum.php?f=79 and the one under overclocking.
