Its using the Mobile Inte 945gm Express chipset so it should work right? Im trying to install 10.4.8.

LoveableGeek Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF...33-3310301.html here is the info. Its using the Mobile Inte 945gm Express chipset so it should work right? Im trying to install 10.4.8. I believe it freezes installation after debugger called: <panic> then says kernel 8.8.1 do you think it my disk? it installs fine on my tower. Which 10.4.8 disc are you trying to install from? My desktop is running 100% with the JaS 10.4.8 IntelONLY SSE3 install, but my Compaq Presario c300 wouldn't load the installer properly from it. I grabbed the newest 10.4.8 disc (also from JaS, but it's got AMD and SSE2 support as well) and it runs fine. No wireless still, but that's because HP/Compaq hates to let anyone use their hardware in ANY WAY other than the original configuration. Just look in your BIOS. If you're like 95% of current HP/Compaq owners, the only options available in their new BIOS involve date, time and boot order... no customization whatsoever. Whew. Ramble. So my advice is to try searching for JaS 10.4.8 on Demonoid, and see if you can grab a copy of the newest release that has AMD and SSE2 support. Oodles more compatible with obscure hardware, and the installer didn't hang up on me. Good luck.
