irrational John Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hi, i plan to install mac on my compaq presario CQ50 139-wm laptop Does this link contain the specs for your laptop? If so you're trying to put OS X on a laptop which uses a single core Celeron. I'm not saying it can't be done, but if it is done I would think it's less common. Not sure what your alternatives are. Out of curiosity, which flavor of OS X did you want to try to install? Leopard or Snow Leopard? -irrational john Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/195671-installing-mac-on-a-compaq-presario-cq50-139-wm/#findComment-1318933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
me.blake Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Well, I have the compaq cq60-120tu and it works almost perfectly with the iatkos v7 installation. Just a few problems, such as no wifi (because I have an atheros card). Other than that, I have it working fine. I even use microsft office for mac (from thepiratebay), limewire, iPhone sdk, etc. I would say use leopard installs as snow leopard doesn't seem as reliable (maybe that's just me).
