sbmrail Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Hello all I was able to install this on to a XPS M1730 with no issues. But you must make these changes to get it to install. Other then that it works great!!! I am installing 2 more GB of ram when it comes in from newegg next week! Boot loader = RC5 and RCT must = RCT32 I was able to install the Battery Drivers and the Wireless Drivers for the BroadCom Nic but the Wired nic does not work and shutdown has issues. Have to push and hold the power button to get it to turn fully off.. Hope this helps others out there trying to install it. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike FYI: When updating to 10.6.4 the mouse pad is no longer working but USB is so any help would be great. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
