WicKeDcHilD Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Ok so i'm new to all this os x stuff, i wanna buy a macbook pro but i dont wanna just go out an buy one before i test it out to see if i will like it or not. I'm not even sure if my hardware will work. So if my hardware will work can someone suggest a Version i should use and maybe... what settings i should be setting with that disk so it will work for me?

BJMoose Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 All your stuff should work fine...probably the hardest to set up will be the ATI AiW card. The display side will probably work, but I'm not sure you'll get the TV side of things to work. Although you can never go wrong with a JaS build, it has been around for awhile and may require you to locate and install more kexts/patches on your own. One of the newer builds like uphuck, Kalyway, or XxX will be more likely to have some of the newer gfx card drivers as options to choose from during installation.

WicKeDcHilD Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 heh... Just as an update, i downloaded a jas 10.4.8 and tried downloading a Kalyway version from a different site then where it shouldn't have been download from, tried to open it before burning and it was a dummy file so i just deleted it and went with the JaS version and it worked perfectly the first try . I forget the settings i had set because i was kinda iffy about trying to install it, in case it didn't work Lol. It went great so now that i know it will work i am going to install it a few times messing with the settings to see what else i can install and cant, then come back and name off all the settings for anyone watching. I did have trouble with the ATI card and the reslution not being 1680x1050 ( not really worried about the tv {censored} because i have been using Vista and drivers for this card are not being used fully ) but i'm thinking if i look around i might find a fix, that or someone will lemme know one in here . Internet detected on its own which i was hoping would happen. But yeah, it worked Edit: forgot that i have dual NEC 20wmgx2's and i need to find out how to get dual screen's to work, i hate cloned screen's Edit2: I had downloaded uphuck's latest build a week ago but didnt use it and just went into the disk and stole the x1300 drivers in it, rebooted and its detecting my display and my reslutions now but still no dual screen...
