nawcom Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Sure you can use USB as the install media for 10.6. I looked up your specs though and it looks like you have ATI Xpress1270 for graphics which no one ever got working. Without supported graphics it's not worth installing OS X in my opinion. Integrated graphics working on AMD CPU-powered laptops was never successful. At most you could get native resolution with a hack but you still lack graphics acceleration which makes everything slow.
