nileshpateluk Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi, I have been trying on and off, for about the last year to get OSX on my Acer Laptop. I have used about 10 different versions of OSX, all don't work for me. The question I have is that has anyone successfully installed OSX on an Acer Travelmate 8215WLMI laptop ?

Gxmk Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 There is something wrong with the ethernet card. If someone could fix this, I would be in heaven! The specs of this laptop matches the 2007 version of Macbook Pro, well most of it.

nileshpateluk Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Is there any way to disable the ethernet port, if that is causing problems installing it ? It would be great to get Max OSX on this laptop :-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/152459-acer-travelmate-8215wlmi/#findComment-1086237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
