is there anyone can help us?

Seems compatible but not sure about that video card you guys, you can always google this or check in the HCL. Woah quad core XD

Good luck

what is HCL? do you have link for me for instalation tutorial for my HP HDX18t?

I dont think theres a tutorial for your Machine, but you can always check for similar specs

Here the HCL

i'm looking to get a very similar setup (with the Q9000 processor) and accordingly am also interested in seeing if anyone out there has had any success in hackintoshing the hdx18t ...

if you're out there, some feedback would go a long way; otherwise i may just shell out an extra $500 for a MPB

tnx

I installed iATKOS v7 10.5.7 on an HDX 18t without too much problem. Make sure to choose custom install and add in the PS/2 keyboard and mouse kexts and NVDarwin to get full monitor resolution.

The only real showstopper was the Intel Pro Wireless 5100. There's no support for that in OS X. I'll probably just swap it out with a Dell 1490 ($15 on ebay) like I did on my last Hackintop.

One other issue (and I don't know that this is HDX specific) was that pressing the tilde (~) key was inputting some other character. I fixed this by downloading Ukulele (free) and remapping the key.
