I talked to some people about installing MacOS X on following machine: AMD Barton 2500+ Abit NF7-S Kingston 2x512MB DDR Abit Siluro FX5700 Creative SoundBlaster 5.1 Live! ASUS TVFM Card Maxtor 80GB 2MB Iomega zip100 LG DVD 16x LG CD-RW 52x 32x 52x Conexant HSF Chieftec MatrixTX 360w SAMSUNG SyncMaster 755DFX I appriciate any answer I get on this. Thanks a lot.

Stadsport Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Unfortunately the Barton core (Athlon XP) doesn't support SSE2, so it's impossible to install OS X on this machine. You might try finding a place online that sells Macintosh computers and ships internationally.

Proteo Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I think Bartons don't have SS2. If that's true, you won't be able to use OS X. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32688-amd-barton-2500-macos/#findComment-230034 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabr Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I think Bartons don't have SS2. If that's true, you won't be able to use OS X. All AMD Athlon XP's don't support SSE2.

zoomie Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Can you belive it. And the lower grade Sempron has them. My god. hm... Thanks guys! The Sempron is not a lower grade to the Barton based Athlons. If I recall correctly the original socket A Semprons are basically just relabeled Athlon XPs. But the socket 754 and 939 Semprons have higher specs than the old Bartons.

REVENGE Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 The Sempron is not a lower grade to the Barton based Athlons. If I recall correctly the original socket A Semprons are basically just relabeled Athlon XPs. But the socket 754 and 939 Semprons have higher specs than the old Bartons. That is correct. Socket A Semprons use old Socket A cores as the base. Socket 754 and 939 Semprons are Athlon 64 based.

munky Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 also, iirc socket a semprons also lack sse2, so the op wont just be able to buy a drop-in replacement and have the macos-joy. correct me if im wrong...
