Zaap Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 You might need a modified BIOS to run OSX successfully on that motherboard. Read through this thread for details. I hope that system isn't one you've specifically built as a Hackintosh, because while it might be made to work, it wouldn't exactly be anything I'd pick as a first choice. Having to hack the BIOS is usually not a sign of the most stable of systems, in my experience. I think you may be S.O.L. on the graphic card also. I don't think there's OSX support for it currently. There might be with the release of 10.5.7, but again, I'd go with a card that is known to work. You absolutely CANNOT get away with trying to do video editing without graphic card hardware acceleration (Core Image, and Quartz Extreme). Final Cut Studio won't even install without it, let alone 'work flawlessly'. Not to mention, no actual resolution switching/hardware accel, and complete {censored} video, is just a joke. Use a card that's listed on the HCL wiki as fully working, and use EFI strings to enable it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already own this PC for last 6 months. i use it for editing. i will dual boot WinXxp 64 bit & iPC OSx86 10.5.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
