sohosources Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Hi, gang: I have a nice little hack running iDeneb 1.3, but I'd like to update to a Vanilla 10.6 install. I have been searching around this site (and others) looking for the easiest way to do this...but most of the guides seem to be set up for newer hardware. I have: * GA-945GCM-S2C (945 Chipset, ICH7) Board is extremely compatible except for stupid ALC662 sound, which is diabled in the BIOS. * 4 GB RAM * C2D 6300 (overclocked Conroe dual core) * Nvidia 256-MB 7950GT Video * IDE HD and DVD * Gb Ethernet card (works out of box) * USB Sound (works out of box) The only thing "unusual" is that I have abandoned my PS-2-to-USB keyboard/mouse "dongle" cuz it annoys Win XP (I have swappable HDs on this box so I can play with XP, Win7, Linux, OSX, etc. There is NEVER more than 1 dedicated drive in this machine at any one time.) So, I have a PS-2 keyboard and mouse coming from a high-end KVM (there are several other PCs sharing my monitors and KB/Mouse). I have a retail install DVD. Is there a Vanilla Guide that anyone can recommend for this hardware? Thanks, --KK in MN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
