I like OS-X. About two years ago I bought my first Mac, a shiny white MacBook. After a few days of getting used to it I was sold completely and understood less and less on how I ever got by using only Windows for all those years. Apart…

“@pcwizz & naquaada About the 4GB supporting AppleNForceATA. In the original iPC DVD, there was a choice of two AppleNForceATA versions, both from forcedeth, one labeled with "test" (IIRC) Obviously I need the AppleNForceATA kext to get a bo…”

“Ok, it's been a while since I posted anything on my progress so here's an update. I bought a new Graphics card: XFX GeForce 9500 GT which of course does not work out of the box. (just my luck ). I've found all the appropriate drivers and be…”

“@natewill18 Wouldn't it be easier to start a new thread with your experiences and progress? I started searching for your chipset support on Google and ended up on posts from you in other threads on this forum I think if you try to keep this…”

“I think I'm going to get this one (coincidentally one you mentioned): ASUS EN8400GS SILENT/HTP/256M GeForce 8400 GS Unfortunately I have to pay 35,= EURO's for it (without shipping) which seems a bit more expensive than in the US. I'll do s…”

“Of course you can go all the way. I looked on Newegg.com and found this guy though Im not sure if its supported. This blows my mind. I looked at the specs. I bet you could get OSX running on the graphics card itself http://www.newegg.com/Pr…”

“Ok, it's clear that I need a dedicated graphics card but I really don't want to spent much on it (several reasons). The cheapest cards I found both have a Radeon chipset for which I can't find anything on the web wether they are supported i…”

“Thanks for the quick reply... use the boot flag maxmem=2048 (when booting the DVD to circumvent the RAM limit) then install and reboot with the same boot flag until you install the new 64bit AppleNForceATA kext file. I might have formulated…”

“Ok, with the excellent tips of LawlessPPC and lanceomni (great to see those options summed up in one place) I started working on this again and got some nice results. First of, I used this tutorial to get the iPC distro on a USB flash drive…”

“so you plan on making music in logic express with onboard audio ? That's what I aim for but I have serious doubts on using it with the onboard audio. I remember from my Windows days that getting good drivers with low latency for these kinds…”

“This is excellent information! It will keep me busy tomorrow night for sure... I notice you have a SoundBlaster Live in your configuration. I thought I read in several places that Creative and OSX86 do not play at all or is this an USB vers…”

“Since you seem to have the same chipset as I have you can try the following: This is based on my experience with the iPC Public release but you might find the same options in other distro's. I have no complete system yet but at least this g…”

“I had the exact same issue on my install (detail in this thread). Because it didn't give me any proper error to work with I soon forgot about iDeneb and tried iPC. Of course iPC also wasn't flawless the first time but at least it booted and…”

“I just had a look at the original thread but it seems your response is not really posted as a direct reply to the comment Dense makes. That makes your comments look a bit strange in the rest of the thread. Also, it seems you are not alone w…”
