New to OSx86 and I need help
Hello Everyone!
I am completely new to the OSx86 scene and I need help deciding whether my current computer specs can handle OSx86 and if it can, what distro/release I should use.
My detailed computer specs are in the .txt file I've attached, but here are the basic specs:
- Processor: Intel 3.00 GHz P4 530 Socket 775 LGA (Code Name: Prescott) with MMX, SSE, SSE2 and SSE3 instructions.
- Motherboard: Dell 0M3918 with Intel i915P/915G Chipset (Rev. B1) and Intel 82801FB (ICH6) Southbridge
- BIOS: Dell A05
- Memory: 2GB of Dual Channel DDR2 (from OCZ)
- OS: Dual-boot partitioned 250GB hard drive with Win XP SP3 and Fedora 10. If I do install OSx86 I will probably be putting it on a seperate 40GB hard drive or possible triple boot it.
If you have any other questions about my computer then please let me know.
If everything works out, I may have some more questions regarding partitions and triple-boot (Windows XP, Fedora 10 and OSx86).
Thank you! I really appreciate any help you can give me!
