shavex Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 well given that you at least need a single layer DVD reader and its a CD reader.... no you cant But hey give it a try maybe your CD reader is secretly a DVD reader!

lupax Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 It is a nec versa premium (celeron version) year 1999/2000, 20 Gb HD, CD-R, floppy, IR, 128 mbram. this is as I remember. sorry I do not have it here, BTW the question is of general interest: what is my laptop does not have a dvd reader ? thx Lx Shavex, I do not think it will work on a 1999 machine anyway I may try, any hint on how burning a one layer dvd ? alternatively: is it still possible to install macosx from 3.5 floppies ? thx again Lx Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/132362-what-if-my-laptop-doesnt-have-a-dvd/#findComment-938812 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSmokingBandit Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 a laptop that old probably doesnt support SSE2 so it wont install anyway.
