hi all,

 

i've got an acer x1200 running an amd x64, nvidia geforce 8200 256mb integrated video, alc888S audio. when i have the time, i've been trying to get osx86 installed properly on this machine for a few months now!

 

i've been trying various installations on my acer x1200 -- including kalyway, ipc, and ideneb, and while i get some working, i always end up breaking them once i try nvinject or some other way of getting the video working. also unable to get sound working. i have gotten my wifi card going (realtek 8187), and i'd be happy to share driver if anyone is interested.

 

have you ever found a way to get video and sound working on your installations? any help you can provide would be awesome.

 

thanks!

I tried an X1200 for a few weeks and gave up. Sold it and bought the pieces in my signature, making a profit vs the X1200. Up and running with a much faster system in under 4 hours.
