Technobob Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 If your laptop is not listed then what you need to do is find out what components your laptop has like video card, sound, network, northbridge chipset, and so on. Then check the Wiki HCL for your components Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaiN Use everest. It gives you a bucket load of info about your system. Look up the components Technobob mentioned and see if they are compatable with the latest OS X release.
