Sm0ke Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 I'm curious what problems I would run into trying to install leopard on a Dell 8600. If it would work, what leopard patch do I need? More info about the laptop: PENTIUM M.., Pentium M Dothan, 1.8GHZ, 2 MEGB, 400FSB ATI Radeon 9600 Mobility 128Mb - M10 Netgear WG511T Broadcom - BCM440x Network STAC 9750 AC97 Audio Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/69326-leopard-on-dell-8600/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
supvash Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 You can use ToH ver. to install the Leopard. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/69326-leopard-on-dell-8600/#findComment-492453 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sm0ke Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 I know I can install it...I'm asking if I will have driver problems? For example, will I have video acceleration? Will sound work?etc... Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/69326-leopard-on-dell-8600/#findComment-492500 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoarthing Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 I know I can install it...I'm asking if I will have driver problems? For example, will I have video acceleration? Will sound work?etc... Thanks Hi - these forums have a search function to the upper LH of each page. As a generality, if Tiger was made to work with a given widget, so will Leopard - you can copy over many [not all] old kexts or use similar edits. 30 seconds (30 of my unreturnable seconds) found this thread re: the 9600M & easily 10 more went on deciding not to reply this time to a second PM from someone I don't know [you]; the first being either a request for me to send a complete stranger a 4.3GB *.iso or to invite 'em to a private torrent site. Best advice is to do a lot of searching, then dive in & play with a known-stable DVD with lots of drivers - f'rinstance Uphuck's 1.4iR3 for Intel boxes: folk here are remarkably helpful to those who've made a decent try.
