Windows 7 or go for Snow Leopard?
Should I leave my Windows 7 install and go to snow leopard?


I had snow leopard installed but with the graphics kext installed that I had, I got OpenGL errors when I tried to run 3D apps.

Suggestions?

Dual-boot is way to go.

Windows 7 is very good OS, and Snow Leopard is one to love too. I'm using both.

I you run on a laptop i would not recommend W7 on it, it killed my laptop battery :O but seriously, battery was working fine when i used VISTA that was pre installed on laptop but as soon as i installed W7 it tells me battery is damaged, replace, then if i play an game for 5-10 min the pc gets overheated and shut down. And i had none of these problems on VISTA.

Specs:
MB: Asus P5K-E Wifi/AP - Works 99,9%
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 3Ghz
RAM: 2GB
HDD: SATA 500GB
GFX:Nvidia 8600GT 256MB - Works Fully
Cam: Logitech QuickCam Express 3500 - Works
Laptop: LG R405-A.CPSTV - Works solid

I am sorry this post is old, a kext for the GMAx4500 with Quartz extreme does not exist, the place I got the kext from was in Dutch so I misread it. It just gives you native resolution and accelerated 2D graphics.
