gymnastdaniel5 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Hello all, I found the appropriate drivers for my laptop(I think...), and since I've had so much trouble, I was wondering if anyone else has successfully installed osx on this laptop, here's the specs: Feature Description Processor Intel® Centrino® Mobile Technology Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor T5750 2 MB L2 Cache | 2.0 GHz | 667 MHz FSB Display panel 15.4-inch Ultrabright™ WXGA TFT display (1280 × 800) Chipset Intel® PM965 Memory 4096 MB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (2 × 2048) Operates at 667 MHz Total slots: 2 DDR2 slots | Available slots: 0 DDR2 slots Video controller ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 2600 Graphics 512 MB GDDR3 Dedicated Memory HDMI HDMI version 1.2 connector Webcam 1.3 Megapixel Fingerprint reader No Audio High definition audio - 2 channel (This is Sigmatel, but I don't know the specific product name...)

If you have gotten it working on this laptop or a laptop with similar specs, please help me! I can't figure out why, the closest I got to it working was on iDeneb, and on -v there was an error (well, it stopped and the screen went black after a few seconds, and nothing happened after a few minutes I shut down and tried again and again and again... AGHH): mDNSResponder[21] cannot find specific computer-name; using default bdevice -0003254C641Db instead mDNSResponder[21] cannot find specific local hostname; using default bdevice -0003254C641Db.loc alb instead I hope that helps, but I had no idea what it meant and when I googled all over the place the best answer I got was turn off the power to your wlan and lan, I did that, nothing happened(well, I got the same error of course, not literally nothing happened )... So, if anyone's successfully installed on this laptop(or one with similar specs), please tell me how -Daniel Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/156270-gateway-m-6864fx/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
