Help with this whole thing

Alright well im brand new to the scene of installing OSX on PC. So i have just purchased a new sony vaio with these specs:

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T9400 (2.53GHz)
Microsoft® Windows Vista® Home Premium 64-bit
4 GB DDR2-SDRAM (DDR2-800, 2GBx2)
320 GB SATA Hard Disk Drive [5400 rpm]
Blu-ray Disc™ Read Only Drive
ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 3650 with 512MB vRAM
LCD 16.4" (XBRITE-ECO™)

I'm pretty sure as far as ive read it will work on that right? Ok

So now after that question i have a lot more. First off i see a lot of talk about OSx86, iATKOS, and another thing called iDeneb. I'm assuming those are the different programs that install leopard? If they are not please explain. Also which one should i use?

So after those and i figure which one to use, how exactly do i install it? I know how to write a file as an image onto a DVD but after that what do i do?

As you can see I'm a newbie to all this so if you could explain in full detail i would GREATLY appreciate it. So far these forums look amazing and Ive been reading some threads and you guys are all so helpful.

EDIT: I just forgot to kinda add this but what im trying to do is make it to where when i start the PC i can choose leopard or Vista. I think thats called dual boot. So i want leopard and vista both for my PC just like bootcamp with the Macs.

As you can see im a complete idiot when it comes to computers, i use them for internet, video editing, pictures, music and IM'ing. But i can do a lot of things if given instructions. (lol)

Thanks

Looks great, all of them are leopard, just diferent gruops or person hu work on them adding some scripts and kext to make most computer compatibles, try with iatkos v5i :D bootcamp wont work, you are using PC, just install windows and dual boot with Vista, check the faq in my signature to know how to dual boot.

Ok thanks m8, so i go here: http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/show...25&postcount=2

And then i make a new partion. But how do i install leopard, I just use the disk i wrote the image file iatkos v5i on and then what? Do i enter the disk while the computer is signed in on vista? and then after that what do i do?

Thanks m8

Download and Burn Iatkos
Go to your BIOS
Enable XD Bit
Check if you have AHCI Sata Support and Enable it
Disable onboard stuff like Lan and Audio

- Make a partition to install Leopard, 20gb min
- Boot into your DVD drive
- Select your Language
- Use Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. In Disk Utility, Select your Partition, and format you should choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled). After partitioning, quit Disk Utility to return to the Leopard Installer.

Alright thanks man. So my system is plenty powerful and V5 is the latest version of iATKOS right?

Hey icchansan Nice to see your about lol,

@eXoBrute - Yep iAtkos V5i is the latest Distro, but as icchansan said, there are loads of different ones out there like Kallaway.

I prefer iAtkos though testing it myself
