sarahbau Posted July 12, 2007 Author Share Posted July 12, 2007 Doesn't look like this page is working anymore The page is working. My router just sucks. It likes to stop routing stuff on port 80 (port 22 still works just fine though). I'll reset it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbmac Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 ...down again... Working again Maybe you should try a new router? You can get them free after rebate nowadays. Or, another port like 8080 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will get a router eventually. I'm waiting until I have something more substantial to get from NewEgg though so I'm not paying $6 for shipping on a $15 router. lol. I know I could just buy one in the store, but I'm too lazy. It's actually mapping port 5505 to port 80, which it used to do just fine. For some reason it recently started acting weird though. I'd just host it on my NCSU space, but I think they might consider it advertising, which isn't allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbmac Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Here is one for $9 at Circuit City: http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/messagevie...threadid=746276 You could also try free hosting via http://pages.google.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It now shows $29.99 after $30 rebate. One problem with hosting it anywhere but my computer means I have to update my program to connect to an ftp server to upload the page rather than just save it in my /Library/WebServer/Documents directory. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarahbau Posted July 14, 2007 Author Share Posted July 14, 2007 That's actually a switch though, not a router. Thanks for looking, but I can find something on my own. I just need to buy it. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahbau Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 NewEgg changed their format last night some time. I'll have to update the program when I get home from work, because it can no longer parse the HTML properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaDxCrEaM Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Thanks for your web page. I put together a system almost like the work hackintosh one I saw on there one day.

Thanks again! I'm not going to make any guarantees, because I don't want anyone to blame me if it doesn't work for some reason, but everything on the list should work fine. Just make sure you read the guides on this forum, as there are certain quirks about some components (like only either orange or purple SATA ports on the GA-965P-DS3 work. I can't remember which). If you are patient though, once you get that up, it will be an awesome system. I'm thinking about upgrading to the GA-965P-DS3 and Q6600 soon myself.

I have searched the forums and it does appear everything should work fine. I have installed OSX on my current system, with everything working except I cannot get my graphics card to work. I've tried all the guides on here. Windows and such "tore" when I dragged them. But otherwise, OSX seemed to run fast on what I have now, can't wait to see how it is with newer hardware.

Hirez Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Looks nice, but i am planning a system with either asus or intel p35, dunno if theres a huge differenc between these anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahbau Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 It's back up now. Sorry for taking so long. I had an exam and a project due, so those took priority. Also, my other project of getting a private WoW server running in OS X got in the way a bit. lol (already have one running in VMWare). Oh yeah. Something I've noticed since I created the page, that I didn't expect to happen, is all of the configurations are getting more expensive. Almost all of the components, as well as the shipping are going up. For example, when I started it, the Celeron 331 was $38 with free shipping. Then it was $40, then 42. Now it's $45. I know that's an older part though, so maybe it's just because it's no longer being made. Other parts are still going up though, and shipping on the 941BW monitor I have listed in my configuration has gone from about $6.50 to $9.50. Overall I think most of the configs have gone up $10 to $20 in the last month or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaDxCrEaM Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Only one thing I forgot about my hardware list, I need an PATA to SATA converter for my Asus drive. Can anyone recommend one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahbau Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 Why do you need an adapter? The GA-965P-DS3 has a PATA port that can be used for two PATA drives. Despite some threads saying that PATA doesn't work on it, my boyfriend has that board, and his PATA DVD and PATA 120GB hard drives both work just fine. Well, actually his DVD sucks, but it sucked before he got the board or made the hackintosh, so that's unrelated. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaDxCrEaM Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 It was working before OSX was even installed? I mean, it was hooked up to the IDE and he installed from the IDE interface?

sarahbau Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 Yes. We installed OS X from his IDE DVD drive. Actually, we've done it three times now. We got it working, but then when trying to install Windows, Windows deleted the OS X partition without asking, so we had to install again. Then just recently, he was trying to do something and ended up breaking OS X, so I had to reinstall it again. Short answer: Yes. It installed on PATA.

I'll try it this way myself. My memory won't be here till Monday, so I'll be trying to install sometime next week. PS. What version is he installing of OSX? Does 10.4.9 uphuck install fine? or need to do 10.4.8 Jas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahbau Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 I've never tried uphuck, so I can't say from experience. JaS 10.4.8 has worked fine for me, as well as for my boyfriend (we have quite different setups though). I don't plan on upgrading until 10.5.
