Sivia, you downloaded Retail OSX, you need to find the munkys guide, this method wont work with Retail, you have to get iAtkos v5i or iPC distribution, then follow this guide.

Just need to boot into Vista Installation or HP Recover Partition, and repair the bootloader, it gonna take like 1 seg then restartm then google a bit to get a dual boot guide there alot, you can get one here or hackint0sh.

I lost these links :angel: , I will try soon as possible XD

Hi icchan-san,Can you please advice if this will work with the Pavilion m8517c or m8**** series? I think I've the same mb as you mentioned in your blog, however I'm a little hesitant to flash the bios at this moment. I've tried installed with iPC, IDeneb, Kalay and iAKTOS v5i. The installation went smoothly, however after the PC rebooted- all I get is the grey screen with Apple logo in the middle and it stays there forever. I greatly appreciated if you could offer me some assistance.

You have to always use cpus=1 -v or put it as kernel flag cuz without MOD you wont get all cores working. Before BIOS MOD I tried like 10 distros and installed like 100 times, and nothing man... the MOD wont affect your system, just remember to backup your BIOS.Good Luck, and yeah it will work, you can always check my archive tutorial on Hackint0sh, there like 60 pages there :angel:

well, this morning i had to reinstall my leopard onto another drive but anyway i installed all the drivers for nvidia graphics (just to be safe :angel:) in the customization during the install and it seems to be working better before. it can play movies and scroll through web pages perfectly fine but im not sure about running any games. well, that fixes everything except the resolution. How did you set up your resolution?

btw, did you have to do anything to update? or did you just click software update and thats it?

Man if your not getting another resolution in the display manager is cuz your not getting full support for the video atm, you need to get full QE/CI support, maybe you just need to add EFI strings, read about it, google a bit, you didnt check any info about your video on insanely?
