hi I'm new at this forum but I have a question.
Is there a so x that is compatible with Compaq Presario with AMD?
Thanks in advance ...

You need to be much more specific, since AMD has made CPUs ranging from 386 clones (maybe even earlier) the their latest and greatest, and Compaq has used the "Presario" name for at least a decade (I've got a decade-old Compaq Presario notebook built around an AMD K6-2 CPU).

Your system is recent enough that you'll probably be able to get something to work, at least minimally; however, I'm not familiar enough with your specific hardware to give more specific recommendations. If you don't get more or better replies, I suggest you Google on keywords like "OSx86" or "Hackintosh" and various hardware details. Pay particular attention to your video chipset (ATI Radeon HD3200) and your main motherboard chipset (which you don't specify; you should definitely find out what you've got -- try CPU-Z (http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php) to identify it).
