Ok so I am very very new to all this. I just found out about dual boot about 2 days ago. Searched the net to see how I could get it on my Z570 with Vista (dual boot). Here is what happened:

 

SPECS:

 

Intel Core 2 Duo P9500 processor (2.53GHz), 6MB L2 cache

Genuine Microsoft Windows Vista Business with SP1

3GB of pre-installed RAM & 320GB Serial ATA hard drive

Processor: 2.53 GHz Intel Core Duo

System Bus Speed: 1066

Number of Processors: 2

RAM: 3GB

RAM Type: DDR2 SDRAM

Graphics RAM: Nvidia 9300m GS

Wireless LAN : Intel® WiFi Link 5100AGN(802.11a/b/g/n

Dual Graphics: Chipset : Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset

Ethernet

Built in Camera

LET ME KNOW IF I MISSED ANYTHING----------

 

1. I downloaded iDeneb 10.5.5 and burned the ISO image onto a DVD.

 

2. Followed a youtube guide (relatively easy) on how to partition my HD to dual boot Vista and Os X.

 

3. Decided to install Os X through iDeneb 10.5.5

 

4. Followed youtube video on how to install, (easy) Installation was easy with no errors.

 

5. I did some other simple changes through command prompt (you need the Vista recovery CDs/ Installation CDs to do this). After this whenever I start my computer I have the option of Choosing to launch Vista or Os X.

 

Problems:

 

1. Video card: My Nvidia 9300m GS does not work, when i hit the hardswitch on my laptop (dual graphics) and try and run Os X, it does start up but I check the settings in the Os X and it is just using the onboard graphics.

-------------If you guys have any drivers that you know fixes my problem please share, I'd greatly appreciate it.-------

 

2. Sound: I have a realtek HD auidio (Intel® High Definition Audio) that does not work at all. Under preferences in Os X I see that it does not recognize the Hardware.

------------Again if you know of any drivers to fix this, I'd greatly appreciate it ----------------

 

3. Internet WIFI: I have the Intel® WiFi Link 5100AGN (802.11a/b/g/n). Does not work, Os X doesn't recognize the hardware.

------I really want to find the drivers (if there are any) so your help/advice/knowledge would be great -_- -----------

 

I hope this helped someone and hope someone can help me out with anything they can. Again I am very new to all this although I am not an idiot and can pretty much follow instructions on how to fix these things.

Good luck to you all.
