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.

Well I dropped Windows 7, Snow Leopard Rocks!!!!

Toshiba L305
Processor: 2.20 Ghz

Fully working Intel x4500 Graphics card, Quartz Extreme!
WIFI: Realtek RTL8187B Fully working with patched driver
USB: Dident work when first installed OSx86 , Works with patched IOUSBFamily.kext
(It was a USB 2.0 incompatibility)
Track-pad/Keyboard: Worked when I installed "PS2.kext"

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.

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.
