chumabeshanaya Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I like INTEL motherboards! Anyone have good experience running OSx86 on an INTEL motherboard? Please share your experience. I have an INtel D865GRH mobo and it works! However, it only has SSE2. The soound works. The NIC works. I have a ATI AIW 2006 card installed, but I only get 1024x768 resolution. I have not tried the onboard video. My guess is that it will not work. I like INTEL mobos for their stability. Share your experience!

AmigoHD Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 After spending many hours in the forum I would suggest an ASUS P5W DH Deluxe. Very stable, fast and good board for OSX. Newest chipset, almost everything should work out of box. + it's very friendly to overclockers like me ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chumabeshanaya Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 Which graphics cards work well with OSx86? Thanks! Chucha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmigoHD Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 puuuh..Many I think. Just have a look at the compatibility list in the wiki. I will buy a Sapphire X1950XT 256MB. Fully supported, with every feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chumabeshanaya Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 Can you tell the URL? Thank you kindly, Chuma What is the best ATI card to use in OSx86? Thank you kindly, Chuma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmigoHD Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.4.8 ATI Radeon X1950XTX 512MB is the best which works perfect the moment, I'd say. At least I found that in the Hardware Compatibility List. For me the X1950XT will be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chumabeshanaya Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 Can you tell me what card under $100 will work with OSx86? Thanks! Chuma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoarthing Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Can you tell me what card under $100 will work with OSx86? Thanks! Chuma For prices, suggest you use Google. - you have just been given a link to the Hardware Compatability List for OS X 10.4.8. This will give you a good idea of the working/tested hardware available. These forums have an excellent search function - use this for any specific questions you may have, not answered by the above HCL, before posting.

idividebyzero Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 ati cards are not supported well, only a few of them dont have problems and a lot will never work. Geforce 7 series mostly work without any problems at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitaristz Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Hey Amigo HD, Was your install fairly easy with that board? Meaning did she spin up after the DVD install? For some, the less kexts and all that stuff the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuma Hi Chuma, I have the same board as you, but i can´t install Mac OS. I tried Leo, Iatkos version 10.5.5.and 10.5.7, its hangs short after it begin to copy the installation files; I tried with MBR and GUID partition table. I attempted to install Tiger too, with more hopeful results, I used the 10.4.8. JAS disk, this time I have completed the installation process, but when the system reboot I have only a black screen. My configuration is: MOBO Intel D865GRH, Chip P4 2,26 Mhz Bus 533 SS2 only, RAM 1GB Bus 400, HD 80GB IDE, Video Nvidia 6200 AGP card, DVD ROM Pionner IDE. Thank in advance for the attention, Regards Hawaharlal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
