I was trying to install osx on my laptop (Acer Aspire 5101 AWLMI (AMD Turion64@2GHz CPU , 1GB RAM, 110GB HD, ATI Radeon Xpress 1100M card). I used Zephyroths 10.5.1 disc followed everystep on a tutorial i found on this forum. Unfortunately my HDD is a SATA drive so the installer didn't see the drive. I took out the drive and put it in a USB shell (device??thingy?) and then the installer saw the drive and i could complete the install. But afterwords when i tried to boot the system it didn't start, all i could see was a black screen with a cursor blinking in the upperleft corner of the screen. I removed the drive from the USB thingy and put it back in the laptop but the same black screen turned up. This i reckon is becuse of the SATA HDD.

So is there anyone who knows how i can get the istaller to recognize my HDD and let me boot into OSX or if there is some other Osx release that will work with my laptop, doesn't have to be leopard could be tiger aswell aslong as its osx.. so fed up with windows and linux... ]]> Hardware Sajk http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=98779 Help Picking NIC Card. http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=98545&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 06:52:28 GMT I'm looking replace my current NIC which is a Realtek RTL8192E with a more compatible one with OSX.

After following the Lifehacker method of preparing the USB boot disk (with an updated version of Chameleon and boot) I had a look at some of the hardware specs on this forum.

This post caught my attention and I grabbed some of the same hardware components and kept some originals from my old machine:

CPU: Intel i7 920 2.66GHz
GFX: ASUS HD4870 512MB
MOBO: GA-EX58-UD3R
HDD: 1TB Seagate HDD SATA
RAM: 6GB Kingston DDR3

I changed all the BIOS settings (seeing as the mobos are similar) to the recommeded on the Lifehacker web site (see the link above) and away I booted.

I get to the Apple loading screen and then it just does that for eternity. I had a look around and apparently that means the gfx card isn't supported; but then I had a look on the Chameleon site and the new one reckons it is supported.

Any ideas on what I can do/did wrong?

I'm open to other methods of booting rather than using Lifehacker; I'm not too hardware-savvy so please be patient with me :P

I'd like to build a stabile hackintosh for serious music production. I'm looking to use Leopard right now with 2-3 PCIe different products (UAD, DUENDE, POWERCORE) and 1 firewire soundcard (TC Studio konnekt).

The perfect hackintosh for me is difficult to build, and takes lots of time to configure, but when it's up and running, it's easy to upgrade with new software/program updates (like 1.5.9??), xtra harddrives and more firewire audio equipment (with no hastle). If, at all possible, I'd like somtime in the future, to update to Snow Leopard WITHOUT reinstalling the whole computer, with software, updates and everything.

My question is: Should I look more into getting a Hackintosh?

My questions are thus:
Is the power supply big enough? (850w)
I want to run dual 22" monitors. Do I need 2 video cards to do that, or will one be enough? I'd like to do some gaming on this. Should I go for one $300 card, or two $150 in SLI?
Can I dual boot 10.6 and Win7 on this? Do I need a 3rd HD just for the windows install?

I'm having trouble installing my TP-LINK TL-WN321G Wireless USB Drive. Everytime I plug it in, the WLAN Setup app opens and then there is a kernal panic and I have to restart.

Usually this stick works on other computers so I figure it should be compatible. I'm guessing its due to the fact when I installed it, I wasnt sure what wireless card I had so I installed them all.

Right now, I am planning to install a copy on a external drive to tweak around the settings now that I know my laptop inside out, however I'm hoping I won't have to reinstall a million times before I get it right. So perhaps someone has a clue what went wrong?

Do I need to add a kext? or Drivers?

GPU: ATI RADEON 4850

I think those are all the specs I need to list, and yes I read tutorials saying Intel works best but im just wondering.... Can AMD work with hackintosh? ]]> Hardware Sharpeyed http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=96807 e-machines T2682 Graphics Card ¿¿¿ http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=96589&goto=newpost Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:18:09 GMT Hello, this is my first post and hopefully this question hasn't already been answered, I didn't find it if it was...

I've already successfully hackintoshed a lenovo r61e and a dell dimension e310.

Now I'm trying to get a friends e-machines T2682 mac'd out but the installer is grainy looking and in all black & white, so i figure we need a better graphics card.

He's willing to purchase a graphics card at one of our local best buy's. What would be our best option? Not looking for anything amazing, best price but works would be the best.

Any help would be so appreciated.
Thanks! ]]> Hardware MrMos3s http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=96589 Seeking advice for a HDTV / MAC Project http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=96570&goto=newpost Fri, 06 Nov 2009 23:17:28 GMT Hello my friends,

I am relatively new (almost two years) to MAC and I love it. I've installed on an Intel based PC with the generous help from this forum the Leopard and I am very happy with it. I am kind of newbie and not very familiar with terminal commands but I could follow instructions and in the past I was successful using it.

I bought an AppleTV, hacked it, loaded tons of movies but I am a little disappointed in terms of hardware capabilities. I can not play MKV movies encoded in 720p or higher. I download 720p movies in MKV, then convert them to MV4 or MP4 to be able to play them on AppleTV but I found very difficult to add subtitles and not to mention that it is a lot of time consuming for conversion.

Therefore, I am looking into building my own HTPC or PC/Media to be more capable and be OK to play HD movies in MKV format, even 1080 movies too. I already have a PC enclosure in a small format with 350W power supply. It fits a small format motherboard (9.5x9.5") and found one with HDMI output, video card integrated and a good prcessor(AMD). Model number: ASUS M3A78-EM

I wish to ask your opinion and advice:
- Should I go for it and then install Leo on it?
- Or should I focus more on Intel based MB?
- I wish to add a dongle infrared that I have to be able to control for instance the VLC player by remote. Are the drivers accessible? Is it possible?
- I wish to add a bluetooth dongle that I have to be able to connect a mouse and keyboard. Is it possible, easy to do?
- And again, is it possible to install on top of Leo the AppleTV software or similar, so I could access the same features as I have now with AppleTV and make it easy for wife? ;) ]]> Hardware DigitALL http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=96570 New to hackintosh...ing... just a couple of questions... http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=96100&goto=newpost Wed, 04 Nov 2009 21:20:00 GMT Hi guys as you can probably see, I am VERY new to the forums... and I was wondering if anybody could help me out with a couple of things... The... Hi guys as you can probably see, I am VERY new to the forums... and I was wondering if anybody could help me out with a couple of things...

The other week I went on holiday and I had surprisingly an apple TV to play around in my room with I really liked it! If I built an hackint0sh would I be able to run the "media centre" style program on it?

So far this is my set-up:

Processor: Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5200
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L
Ram: Kingston 1gb KVR533D2N4/1G X2
Graphics: ???


I am not sure what graphics card to get could anybody suggest something that is VERY cheap but compatible (as you can probably tell I am building on a budget!)?

and lastly,

am I limited to what OS I can use with this set-up? for example will I be able to run Snow Leopard or will I be limited to a previous version?
