I new to this forum. I have read many many pages and can't decide what version of Osx86 to try so that i can have a better result.
I need a version where are I dont have to use a mac as i dont have access to one.
So if anyone can advice me as to which one would work best with my system configuration i would greatly appreciated.

System:
Q9950
G33m-DS2R Bios f9a.
8gb RAM
HD4890
2 hhd
1tb hitachi with window 7 64bit
320gb wd planing on using it for Osx.

I have downloaded iATKOS v7 10.5.7 and iDeneb v1.6 10.5.8 Lite Edition but before i even try them i wanted to know if maybe there was a better version that would be less painful.

Thanks everyone in advance.

@TaistoTry to get XxX Leopard and then install retail Snow Leopard. Probably the most reasonable choice.

I'll try and get it.
Do you know what version is the newest?.

Author Update #2 @Ride2kmax 2010-02-07

I try iatkos v7 and ipc osx86 but i guess something happen to the image files they didnt work.
Now i have tried snowosx 3.6 yurdle turtle and Ideneb v1.6 10.5.8 and both dvd boot fine but when i get to the select destination screen there are no hard drive to choose. I tried the utilities disk something and i'm still unable to select hardrive.

Field Note #2 @Taisto 2010-02-06

10.5.8 if i remember well. But this doesnt matter. Install any version and then go for retail SL using methods described here ( Arya method for example ).
