FlipHDK Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Everything except internel ethernet and wireless won't work. I think the graphics will work not sure. The bluetooth will work. You can do it without losing MCE, but you should backup just incase this goes wrong. How to install without losing MCE ( SIMPLE ): 1) Backup 2) Resize your windows partition to allow room for os x - You can use Built in windows tool's ( Will post links to how-to's when I get home ) 3) Create a new partition - You can use tool's build into windows tool's ( Will post links to how-to's when I get home ) 4) Install OS X - Pritty simple 5) Not sure which bootloader to use, sure someone else will post which one to use, I will have a look and see which one is the best to use Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40333-install-of-e1705/#findComment-288066 Share on other sites More sharing options...
