Hi all,

 

I have used this site a lot but never asked a question so sorry if its not in line with what you usually get

 

I have a hp compaq presario cq60-215dx running vmware workstation 7.0.0 with iAtkos v7 10.5.7 installed.

specs are:

 

Processor: AMD Athlon Dual-Core QL-62 2.00GHz

Memory 2.00GB

System type: 32-bit Operating System

Graphics Processor/Vendor NVIDIA GeForce 8200m g

Video Memory 895MB

Chipset:AMD RS780M

 

Please let me know if you need more info.

 

I have iatkos v7 running ok but the only feature that works is wireless (bridged or lan) both work.

I got audio working with AppleAC97Audio.kext after editing the plist but it was so stuttery that you couldnt understand anything. I thought part of the problem was that in "about this mac" it didnt recognize my graphics card. it says.Display:

 

Type: Display

Bus: PCI

VRAM (Total): 128 MB

Device ID: 0x0405

Revision ID: 0x0000

Kernel Extension Info: No Kext Loaded

Displays:

Display:

Resolution: 1366 x 768

Depth: 32-Bit Color

Core Image: Software

Main Display: Yes

Mirror: Off

Online: Yes

Quartz Extreme: Not Supported

Vendor ID: 0x15ad

 

And under PC Cards tab in "about this mac" it says no information found.

I may be wrong but I was thinking that the audio and graphics went hand in hand because the video would stutter just as much as the audio.

So, I have spent about the last week trying different ways to install my graphic drive i.d. (0x084510de) into different kexts to get it to recognize it. but i have not succeeded. Anything that I have done I never got a kernel panic, so i dont know if that means I wasent doing it right to begin with. Most of the guides that i have found and followed where for earlier mac os i.e. 10.4.2. If someone on here knows if my card will work with a Injector please let me know and if you know where a guide to do would be, that would be great to know too. I am pretty new to this but i am comfortable using terminal and i think i am using it right to edit plist and change permissions and such.

Also if i am posting this in the wrong place please let me know and i will move it to the right place.

Like I said before if you need more info to answer my question let me know and i will post as soon as possible because I would really like to getting this running in vmware right so I can eventually run mac osx exsulsivly on my compaq. I am using vmware as the trial and error part of my process.

 

Thanks you guys. so far this forum has been extremely helpful so i hope someone can help me here

As you can probably tell, I haven't used forums before. Sorry I realize now that I should not have started a topic with this question. It won't happen again. Sorry everyone.

That's interesting ... up to their site VMware doesn't support OSX as a guest OS but you are saying you are running VMware WS 7 with Leo 10.5.7 as a guest .... I better try it myself

 

EDIT: I couldn't find a way to install 10.5.x or 10.6.x on VMware for Windows.

Look up ih8sn0w, in their forum it shows you exactly how to install iAtkos v7 on vmware workstation 7.0. Just because because vmware says you can't dosent mean you can't, I thought that was the whole point of hacking.

 

Anyway good luck if you try it.
