Eggman Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 I don't know what file you're talking about, but the easiest way to do it is to get the 10.4.3 DVD off of a specific torrenting site. I don't really know much about Nvidia cards, but from what I've read, you will get basic output, but not 3D graphics (someone correct me if I'm wrong...). Once you get the DVD, you'll need to find Maxxuss's site on Google. PS: Yes, I know there is a 10.4.4, but 10.4.3 is a lot easier to install.

Eggman Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 First, you need to get CPU-Z. You can find it here: http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpu-z-132.zip Then, go through it and somewhere in the program it should have a list. If you see SSE3 and SSE2, you can install it with barely any patches at all. If you only see SSE2, you'll need the SSE3 patch available from Maxxuss. Then you'll need to get UltraISO. Use that to convert the DMG to an ISO file. Once you have done that, get PPF-O-Matic, available here: http://www.paradogs.com/pdx_ppf3.htm Just apply the patches as necessary, and burn it to a DVD and reboot. The installation should begin! Good luck! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/10511-osx-on-amd-with-gf4-mx440/#findComment-65812 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrana Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Do you know what moterboad you have? Unless you have an Athlon 64 2600+ (not an Athlon XP) it won't install and there is not a way to install. Eggman's suggestion about cpu-z has to be done prior to anything else.

DrJägermeister Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 am i right? i can only install osx on a athlon 64? sy4my bad english... Yes, you need a Athlon64 or a Sempron (754 pins) for OSX86. A AthlonXP or Sempron (462 pins) will not work, they have no SSE2. Try CPU-Z (MS) or cat /proc/cpuinfo (linux) if you don't know your CPU.
