Hi!

I'm new to this forum (This is my first post so...).

I use Windows Vista SP1, Windows XP SP3 and Velo Linux (My in co-development OS), now I have fallen for Mac too.

Since I am 14 years of age, I have no means of actually gaining money, to actually be able to buy a Mac.

My computer is fairly old, it runs a AMD Duron Spitfire, and of what I know it does not have SSE2 or SSE3.

I have been doing some digging around, and I am still not a 100% sure, is it possible to install OSx86 on a AMD Duron Spitfire?

 

Just because I am 14 years old does not mean that I don't understand computers, so you do not have to think that I am too young to understand, I do program over 20 programming languages.

The reason I want a Macintosh OS X is because I want to program applications for Mac too, somewhat like the main reason I got Vista (To see whether my programs and games work with Vista).

 

I am from Sweden, so you will have to excuse my horrible grammar.

 

I have searched both Google and this forum (OBS, tried to search the forum, it says flooding control, please wait 20 seconds, but I have been waiting for 15 minutes) and I have seen it run on AMD Duron Spitfire, but no "How to get it to run on". Any suggestions?

All help is gladly appreciated, and again, please forgive my grammar.

Hi! Welcome here :)

 

First off, if you can run CPU-Z and take a screenshot of it and post it here. So we can look what the processor supports.

Also if you can list all your hardware, so it's possible to check what's support and what not :(

no sse2 = no os x, that's final.

Thanks everyone.

Here is CPU-Z:

My hardware.. Lets see...

My Motherboard is a K7NF2-RAID.

My Core Processing Unit is a AMD Duron Spitfire.

I have 32 MB graphics card, a S3 Savage4.

I have a 160GB Harddrive WesternDigital EIDE (WD Caviar "©" SE) with 8MB cache and 7200 RPM tr/min.

And my networking card is NVIDIA, cant remember the model.

So that is my computer, the newest thing in it is the harddrive, bought it around 8 months ago.

 

Thanks for any help provided.
