gui3 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 im trying to plan out the best way for me to get osx on my dell PC. i have a legit copy of OSX (i have a MBP) i have a dell computer that's only 1 year old, with a 160GB hard drive. the hard drive already has a hidden restore partition from dell for restoring windows. what's the best way to do this? should i wipe the drive, install OSX, and then put windows on using boot camp? ideally i want to keep the drive as-is, make a new partition, install OSX, then make OSX the boot partition. what do you think?

Rammjet Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 You cannot install OSX from an Apple DVD installer onto a PC. The DVD will not even boot. OSX requires extensive patching to work on a PC. You must download a patched version of OSX to install on your PC. Using this patched version of OSX is illegal. Boot Camp will not work on a PC, only on a real Mac.
