Hello guys,

I have the following config:

 

Asus Striker Extreme (nvidia nforce 680)

GeForce 8800 Ultra

Seagate 500GB SATA Hard drive

Intel Q6700 processor

 

I have Windows Vista 64 installed on a partition, a NTFS formatted data partition, and a blank partition. I've read that the BrazilMac patch won't work with nforce chipsets. Since it seems that my configuration has pretty much every single piece of OSX problematic hardware, my question is:

 

Can I install Leopard and dual boot it with Vista ?

What is the best patched image for this ??

 

Thanks in advance !

Hi there,

 

Have you checked out the excellent threads by Mysticus C* for Intel CPUs and nForce chipset MOBOs:http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=87901

and http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=109102

 

If you follow Mysticus C*'s guides carefully they should get you going OK...his guides and updater packages have got me up to running 10.5.4 on a 650i MOBO with a Q6600.....using MBR rather than GUID partition mapping....... :)

 

A key point will be whether or not you have a SATA or PATA DVDRW as the former may cause problems.....But if you need further clarification on each step read the Kalyway 10.5.2 (IMHO the preferred choice because of giving no SUIDs errors) and iATKOSv2.0i 10.5.2 install guides in my blog......other forum readers and members have posted saying that it helped them install OS X successfully....the following posts here on pages 81 and 82 by sQuadron, which show that iATKOS v2.0i was successfully installed using my blog guide and is running on a ASUS striker exteme mother board nFORCE 680i.....whereas he had problems with leo4all v3...... :)

 

You may also need to check around carefully for the optimum driver for your graphics card......

 

For dual booting try EasyBCD 1.7.2. from here.......:)
