darkcosmos Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I recently purchased this laptop from Amazon, and I've not been an active member of the OSx86 Community for a few years due to incompatible laptop. I was just wondering if this particular laptop is capable of running Lion/Mountain Lion? Ill prove as much information as I can: Brand: Sony Vaio SVE1511L1EW.CEK Processor Type: Intel Core i5 Processor Speed: 2.5 GHz Memory: 4 GB Computer Memory Type: DDR3 SDRAM Graphics Card: Intel® HD Graphics 3000 If this system can handle Lion/Mountain Lion, what would be the best method to get it installed? (iAtkos etc) Many thanks for any help offered Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/282572-sony-vaio-sve1511l1ewcek/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkcosmos Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Thanks for the quick reply, is there a way to do it without having to have a mac available to me? If no, I'll see if I can use my mums Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/282572-sony-vaio-sve1511l1ewcek/#findComment-1850656 Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkcosmos Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Thanks again, I've managed to use a mac and have followed the tutorial word for word, but when booting the USB, I get to the apple screen, the wheel turns for about 1 minute then I get a grey cross, any ideas? EDIT: I've also followed this tutorial, same problem still occurs after about 1 minute: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=282045 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/282572-sony-vaio-sve1511l1ewcek/#findComment-1850691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
