I just wanted to know for sure if this will all work together, i based it off of the compatibility list from the osx86 page.

Hagar Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 protip 1: read the rules & guidelines, from which you will gather: protip 2: Don't make posts like this one, instead search/google your hardware & figure out for yourself whether it will work. Then read up on installation methods, pick one & go systematically about it.. protip 3: Don't post again until you've done all of the above, got stuck a couple of times, tried a load of solutions and can give a detailed description of your specific problem that someone might help you with.

shrieken213 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 What's the problem? This MB is quite strange. You have to follow a special set of instructions that I saw somewhere.

XLR Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Strange? Are you talking about some specific model, or all P55 boards? And what special instructions did you had to follow? I'm curious because i've installed Retail SL on at least five different P55 and H55 models from Gigabyte and Asus, and never had any problems.

shrieken213 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Oops, it's the Asus P55, I think, not Gigabyte.
