DsurioN Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Hey all, I have an inexpensive Presario V2000 laptop that I would like to install osx86 on. It's got an AMD processor and it's SSE2-only, so I'm not sure if it would run very well. Here are the specs: AMD Sempron 1.8 Ghz (SSE2) 512Mb Ram 60gb HD 14.4" widescreen display ATI Radeon Express 200M As you can see, not the greatest specs, but tiger runs on less capable macs, so I'm just wondering. Thanks P.S: If it is possible to setup, I'd love it if someone could point me to a solution that doesn't make me download a whole new image, and lets me make my own as I have tiger or leopard disks at my disposal (I own an iMac).

DsurioN Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 Well I've tried Kalyway 10.4.10, which gives me "Waiting for root device" no matter what I try (-legacy, -x, etc) and Kalyway 10.5.2 makes it all the way to 8 minutes left in the install and then freezes. Any tips? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/76428-hackintosh-on-presario-v2000-laptop/#findComment-832673 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sosai X Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 There's no support for the 200M video card and chipset. You can get some distros to install and boot, but you are stuck at 1024x768 with no support for QE or CI, so it's really not worth it.
