dynamo84 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Hi everyone! I'm looking to buy a laptop, but first I need to know if anyone was able to install Hackintosh on this laptop or if the system is compatible with hackintosh. My system specs: Dell inspiron 1764 Processor: intel Core I5-430M 2.26 GHz Chip-set: Intel HM55 Graphics: Intel GMA HD Current OS: Windows 7 I really appreciate if someone can help me with this.

The graphic card is not supported for graphic acceleration, you only have native resolution.

dingfelder Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 can you confirm that is true for my inspiron 1764 ? because my graphics settings seem different that the ones the last user posted cpuz says my graphics is: Display adapter 0 Name Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator HD Memory size 1722 MB PCI device bus 0 (0x0), device 2 (0x2), function 0 (0x0) Vendor ID 0x8086 (0x1028) Model ID 0x0046 (0x0434) Performance Level 0 processor is Processors Information ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Processor 1 ID = 0 Number of cores 2 (max 8) Number of threads 4 (max 16) Name Intel Core i5 Codename Arrandale Specification Intel® Core i5 CPU M 430 @ 2.27GHz Package (platform ID) Socket 1156 LGA (0x4) CPUID 6.5.2 Extended CPUID 6.25 Core Stepping C2 Technology 32 nm Core Speed 1330.4 MHz Multiplier x FSB 10.0 x 133.0 MHz Rated Bus speed 2394.7 MHz Stock frequency 2266 MHz Instructions sets MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, EM64T, VT-x L1 Data cache 2 x 32 KBytes, 8-way set associative, 64-byte line size L1 Instruction cache 2 x 32 KBytes, 4-way set associative, 64-byte line size L2 cache 2 x 256 KBytes, 8-way set associative, 64-byte line size L3 cache 3 MBytes, 12-way set associative, 64-byte line size FID/VID Control yes and if the last answer still holds (The graphic card is not supported for graphic acceleration, you only have native resolution.) then what does this really mean? does this mean I can only use VGA mode? or that only some resolutions are possible?
