Hey guys im new to the forum and new to the world of hackintosh. My goal is to have Vista(SP2) and Mac OS X running in a dual boot configuration, Vista is already installed btw. I will be using the Mac for productivity purposes, including:

Music production - Logic pro 8
Web development - DW, FL, PS
Programming - Java
General - Documents and spreadsheets

The Vista side will be used for gaming only. I am aiming to do all of this on this spec...

(EVEREST REPORT ATTACHED TO POST)

I have both iPC 10.5.6 Final and iATKOS v7, which would be the best one to install? and which drivers and fixes would i need to get it up and running with all of my hardware working.

I would appreciate any help, tips and advice i can get.

Happy to be a part of the community, Thanks!

It decided to use iPC 10.5.6 and i used the following settings.

Kernel - 9.5.0 Voodoo
Video - Ndarwin 1024
Sound - ALC888
Chipset - VIA/SiS/Marvell/SB Chipset Drivers
Ethernet - Realtek R1000
USB - patched USB drivers
Power - Voodoo power
Fixes - SATA drive icon fix, Dual boot time sync, Seatbelt.kext 10.5.5, Shutdown/Restart fix
PS/2 Device - Mouse and Keyboard
SMBIOS - Applesmbios-27 rev3 800mhz
Applications - Installed all of them

Everything works perfectly using these settings, sound, video, ethernet...no problems at all.

Hope this helps someone else too.
