Mahlyk Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Hey there, it's like this, im new to the mac world, i have a mac that a friend offered me, but it's kind of old and so i can't use it properly to most of the things I want, and my intention with all of this is to try to put the mac running on my laptop with full hardware support so I can test it, the thing is, I'm thinking in buying a mac, but I wanna try the S.O. first before I do that to see if I get good in that and if its useful for me Now the problem is, I installed the Kallyway Mac OS with a package of KEXT, and part of the hardware is working, but most of it is not, and I can't even tell if the part that's working, if its running at full speed since I'm not into the mac world yet. So I thought running through these forums to see if I could get an answer to my problem, and yes, I already searched the web looking for answers, and I couldn't find any solution, so the list of the hardware is the following: The model is a Compal IFL-90 Aka Clasus Dynamic SR-512 Hardware: Chipset: Intel PM965 Support Intel Core2duo Graphics Module: nVidia GeForce 8600M GT Graphics Controller, w/ 512MB DDR Video Memory Ethernet: Broadcom NetLink BCM5787M PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller Wifi: Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN Network Adapter Audio: Realtek ALC268 @ Intel 82801HBM ICH8M - High Definition Audio Controller Please, help me out with this problem! I would apreaciate that! And sorry for being new in this world and if im missing some important points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
