I am running XP on my COMPAQ M2000 and want to create a new partition and run Leopard on it. Using iDeneb v1.1 with OS X 10.5.4. I just wanted to ask what Drivers should I choose during installation.

My Notebook Config is as follows:

Intel Pentium M - 1.60 GHz
2 GB DDR1 Kingston RAM
Synaptics Touchpad
Intel 82852/82855 GME Graphics Controller
Conexant CX20468-31 AC97 Audio Controller
Broadcom 100 Mbps Ethernet Adapter
Intel PRO Wireless 2200 WiFi Adapter
Texas Instrumental PCMCIA - TI-PCI6xx1/7xx1

Install the drivers according to your hardware.

First step: know you hardware, models and chipsets numberz,

Second step: install osx86.

Goodluck,

looks like you'll need the sse2 patch and chances are the intel wireless won't work. Also the graphics on the 855gm will be unsupported so will be slow as hell. I don't think all in all it will run at all smoothly with the sse2 processor and graphics limitations.

Well, in that case, I think it would be better to stay with Windows. However, I'll try the install on a VM....

Think JaS 10.5.4 or Leo4All supports your machine.

Goodluck on test and post back results, or a guide if you can (or if work)

Look, all pentium 4 supports SSE2, the ADM need to be K8 and more/= socket 939

All Sempron models of 754 pins are TRUE capable of run OSX.

Thanks for all updates... I am going to try install Leopard after I get some time in a week or so... Will post back results...

BTW, Is there an app to backup my whole Windows XP HD as it is and store the image on my external drive.. So if OS X install fails, I can restore the whole image with my Apps/Data/Settings, etc... ?

Thanks.

Did you can try Norton Ghost - work good!
