Tsayonara Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hey there people, About a year back I tried installing OSx86 on my (old) laptop and failed. However I feel I gave up to quickly and have a strong craving for the shiny OS - obviously the real thing is not in my budget. I have a Dell Latitude c840 laptop which has a GeForce4 440 graphics card. My question: is there any way I'm going to get this to work? Neither is listed on the supported hardware list =| Thanks in advance for any replies Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/109962-possible-latitude-c840-with-geforce4-440/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

comojoden Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 The tutorial in question has 4 parts. As mentioned above the site where the tutorials were hosted is gone. However for those still wanting to do this here are the "updated" working links to the same tutorial from archive.org Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Or you can download it here (attached as a zip file) C840Tutorial.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/109962-possible-latitude-c840-with-geforce4-440/#findComment-1712535 Share on other sites More sharing options...
