Steve Mahfouz Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Hi all, my first post ! I've read about OS X for years, so I dove in with a hackintosh build on my Lenovo Thinkpad T500 laptop, Intel processor. After several hours, I finally got Mavericks installed and working just right. Woot ! So, it can be done on an old notebook. You have to follow the install guides to the letter. I used MyHack to upgrade from my retail Snow Leopard. Now, the question: I"m trying to get the OS X version of http://secondlife.com installed on it now. I've used two versions of it. I'm hesitant to go ask for help on those forums, because I don't really want to get "yelled at" by people who are purists about Macs. It's just a bit odd to me that no version of SL I've tried so far will work on my Hackintosh. I'll be happy to post the error messages from the crashes, or go to the SL forums if I must. If this post violates forum rules, my bad, I'm a newb here. Thanks. Steve on edit: Please do not contact me. I had to figure it all out by trial and error, using the link I posted downthread.

Steve Mahfouz Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 I have reported the problem to the developers of Firestorm viewer. They have not solved it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrissega272 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I know this doesn't exactly pertain to your request but I too have a Lenovo T500 and I was wondering, if it isn't too much trouble, could you link me to the instructions for the hackintosh install you used on it. I'm new to the installation process and just need a little guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

149113 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Which graphics card do you have in your T500? And were you able to get graphics full support (QE/QI)? Any additional kexts needed under 10.9 to make this work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
