rockinron_1 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 See the wiki for a list of known good laptops: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page Intel HD graphics is unsupported by ML, you need at least hd3000 afaik. Ultimately you have no way of guaranteeing its going to work you can just make sure it has supported components and hope. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skilo47 Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 looks good to me Im guessing it's just the "Integrated" graphics that are not supported right? The intel HD 3000 and 4000 series are different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinron_1 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 HD3/4000 are also integrated graphics but a different model "Intel HD Graphics" are unsupported 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
