I am wanting to know if I can install Leopard(10.5.1) on my HP dv9715nr. Any suggetions would be great. If you are in need of more specifications please let me know. Also, if this is not posted in the correct are than please direct me to a more appropriate place to post.

 

Here is a list of my HP's Specs.

Technology: 65nm

Family: F

Model: 8

Instructions: MMX(+), 3DNow!(+), SSE, SSE2, SSE3, X86-64

Frequency: 2000 MHz

HT Link: 800 MHz

Cores: 2

Threads: 2

 

Motherboard

Manufacturer: Quanta

Model: 30D1 85.24

Chipset: NVIDIA nForce 560 Rev. A2

Southbridge: NVIDIA nForce 560

BIOS Brand: Hewlett-Packard

BIOS Version: F.25

Partitions

All are on DISK 0

Vista (C:) 149.95 GB NTFS

HP Recovery (D:) 11.91 GB NTFS

Unallocated 75.38 GB

 

OS

Windows Vista Home Premium

 

Not sure how helpful that the list will be, but please let me know if more is needed. I have tried putting in an original 10.5.1 in my CD/DVD drive and then restarted the computer and set BIOS to boot from CD/DVD. I set the Unallocated Partition to Active and when booted the screen would say something like "NO OS FOUND". So I set Vista (C:) back to active and booted. The screen would be black and drive sounded like it was trying to read disk and then would start to load Vista.

 

I found a torrent that said Mac OS X 10.5.1 for AMD SSE2/SSE3 (32 bits) and started downloading this. Will post what happens when I am done with it. If I am on the right track then great, but if not could someone point me in the right direction. Thank you.
