nvflash Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Dell Vostro 220( ICH10 ) with 4 GB Ram and a T7200 core 2 duo, PCI-E Apple 802.11ac and Bluetooth, Bluetooth sound via Vizio 5.1 sound system. Everything works, but graphics card does not wake from sleep. nVidia MCP79A( GF9300 ) Core 2 Quad Q9550 6 GB Ram, Apple original FW400 iSight, USB Wifi, HDMI Audio. Everything seems to work, had one random shutdown, wake from sleep works for the first time under the macOS, been running every OS from 10.6.8 on this Motherboard and wake from sleep never worked. Custom DSDT I edited years ago to try and get sleep to work proper, Custom SSDT for HDMI Audio. 3 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/327545-high-sierra-success-on-some-ancient-hardware/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlada.

Everything works, but graphics card does not wake from sleep. Care to share how did you do that? I have some Core 2 Duo E4500 cpu in my old computer, so I would appreciate if you leave here instructions for the method that you use to do that! 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/327545-high-sierra-success-on-some-ancient-hardware/#findComment-2533967 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBX Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Would a q9550 run High Sierra as well as El Capitan performance wise? I am on a Asus P5e/Q6600 (SSE3) and it would be a cheap upgrade for now.

Stefe Hobs Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Dell Vostro 220( ICH10 ) with 4 GB Ram and a T7200 core 2 duo nvflash probably meant a core 2 duo 7200 without "T" = aka wolfdale has SSE4.1 that's why sierra/high sierra worked. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/327545-high-sierra-success-on-some-ancient-hardware/#findComment-2535992 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ricoc90 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Would a q9550 run High Sierra as well as El Capitan performance wise? I am on a Asus P5e/Q6600 (SSE3) and it would be a cheap upgrade for now. I ran the betas of High Sierra on my Q9550 and found that it did not run that great. However, in theory the CPU *should* do fine.

nvflash Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 I have a Q9550, and I guess a E7200, they are both running High Sierra just fine, both support SSE 4.1. The real thing with High Sierra is Ram, at least 6 Gigs is needed, runs good on 8. I got by with my Q9550 as long as I could, and upgraded to a Ryzen 7 1700, now I can run make -j16 instead of make -j4. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/327545-high-sierra-success-on-some-ancient-hardware/#findComment-2536148 Share on other sites More sharing options...
