Hi, I'm new to this stuff so go easy on me.

 

I've been doing a lot of browsing in the past few days and really want to get a macos install on my laptop. Unfortunately it looks as though I inadvertently chose the worst laptop possible for this. Since you guys know way more than I do, I just wanted to confirm that its not worth trying. I'm not looking for a perfect install, but one with minimal video, wifi and sound is what I'm aiming for.

 

I havn't been able to find too much info regarding the chipset and integrated video, which i think is a bad thing. I know that in most cases the network card doesnt work, but I am willing to buy a cheap USB one. I have no idea about the sound. I'm pretty good with tech and I am a quick learner. Any help is greatly appreciated!

UPDATE: I didn't get a response so I'm currently installing iPC to see how it goes. I doubt everything will work out of the box so I'm hoping to get some feedback.

 

UPDATE 2: Didnt work, tried almost 5 installs... all showed up with a grey screen with lines through it.
