dutchiee (= Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 hey sorry to burst ur bubble there mate.. but i doubt a nforce 680i board will work with OSX . OSX86 has been known to have a grudge against nforce boards, as it rather likes Intel and VIA. Im sorry but i dont know how to get ur computer going, my old computer had a nforce 5 chipset.. and it never saw osx booting. All i can say is that i hope someone else knows how to get it working, cause Leopard surely is great . Goodluck and sorry i couldnt help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
