brentonjay Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 What I'm looking for is to build a Hackintosh system that will 1. Detect my external drives, One of them is a Segate and the other one is a Lacie. 2. Support Dual-Screens and be able to switch over to my TV through S-Video. 3. Play Hulu-Desktop without skipping or freezing If your system can do the above please list your hardware and software specs for me. I have an Acer laptop with Mac OS X 10.5.2 that will play Hulu-Desktop, but I need my main computer to be able too. Thanks in advance, Brenton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brentonjay Posted September 9, 2009 Author Share Posted September 9, 2009 http://wiki.osx86project.org Do your own homework. You'll get smarter. That may be the case, but it want save me time buying incompatible hardware and having to resell it until I come across hardware that fits my needs. No where in those peoples listings dose it say that flash works properly to stream video on the web. At least help me find a graphics card that will work the way I need it to (pci-e x16 dual monitor). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
folliclemiracle Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Clearly anything with SSE3, perhaps with the exception of the atom boards will manage flash ok. Any dual-core core2 based proc will be fine. I can't help you with the graphics, I haven't tried both outputs on my card simultaneously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carsonp Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I've got a setup that's about what you're looking for: Asus P5Q-EM Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 8gb DDR2 1066 1TB Western Digital SATA nVidia GeForce 9600GT 512mb dual DVI (works great with efi strings) Everything works including sleep. That's just what I have. I would suggest doing some research though and picking some newer hardware. Good Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brentonjay Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Here are my CPU & GPU specs using everest under winxp. I've only been able to use Mac OS X 10.5.2 with this PC. My main goal is to get flash to work properly. Thanks for the info guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SA22C Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I'd ditch the AMD and get a real processor, myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewq2 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I'd ditch the AMD and get a real processor, myself. Ditch AMD no way. I'm running snow on an AMD right now. Here is a link to a thread i followed. [AMD] Installing Snow Leopard 10A432 on AMD System also here is a thread i made it says 790GX but it can be used with any AMD Board.

Someone should do a video tutorial and post it on youtube. Even if I get Snow Leapard to work on my AMD System I'm sure I'll still need a diff. graphics card to run flash properly.
