Gringo Vermelho Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 It's fine. You can run retail OS X. Because of your video card, it'll have to be Lion or above. You should find out if there are drivers for the LAN and the on-board sound.

Gringo Vermelho Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 You need Lion retail install media (flash drive or DVD) Chameleon boot CD - there are many different ones out there, try a few, use a CDRW so you don't have to throw CDs away. If you have access to a Mac or working Hackintosh you can also prepare a Lion installer from there, there's a ton of guides on how to do that and they are all more or less identical. I don't recommend using a distro/hacked DVD. A hacked DVD will be easy in the beginning but cause many problems in the long run.
