agiveon Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 OK, so I have a Windows running PC that I wish to convert to OSX. using CPUID I got the following report: http://www.giveon.com/agiveon/temp/CopConf.htm I am also attaching the txt (since it has more information) By "how far" am I, I mean, how much of the hardware should I replace (and hopefully you can help me by telling me what to get), in order for this computer to be be able to have OSX... and then help me (if you do not mind, since I am VERY new at this) figure out what I need to do... Thank you so much, cpuz.htm cpuz.txt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/123970-how-far-am-i-from-osx/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oracle67 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Just a step is the distance. Try to make your experimental installations on an external HD a USB disk will be fine.

agiveon Posted September 4, 2008 Author Share Posted September 4, 2008 I am sorry... I am very new here and I have no clue what "Try to make your experimental installations on an external HD a USB disk will be fine" means. When I put the Kalyway 10.5.2 DVD in, it hangs in the window after I choose my language... it just hangs there and does nothing and allows me to do nothing.

MGJulius Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Hey, Your system should be able to run OS X fine. I would try leo4allv3 or iDeneb v1. Make sure when you install to select the nForce chipset driver as well as the modded kernel. I think Pentium D's can't run the vanilla kernel. Also what is your graphics card, then I can tell you the correct driver to install.
