Eggman Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 You can definitely install OS X! Yes, this is the infamous OS X by Apple. Sorry, though; can't provide you with a guide. Do a Google search on "Maxxuss" to find one. Also, you'll need the installation disc. I don't know how much I can say, so... BitTorrent is your friend!

Eggman Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 According to your PM, I doubt it. Does he have a new Mac with an Intel processor? If it's not circa-January 2006, it doesn't.

Eggman Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Specifically, you want to find a Bay of Pirates... (Mods: If this is not allowed, get rid of it!) About the wireless, you can figure out how to do that later. The graphics are fine. And I've never heard anything about SoundMAX, but I'll look around.

Eggman Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 10.4.1 - Outdated, horribly unstable and complicated 10.4.3 8F1099 - Outdated, works pretty well 10.4.3 8F1111 - Second-newest, easiest to install 10.4.4 - The one everyone has now, somewhat hard to install, but is what you'll find on a commericial Intel iMac Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9759-please-help/#findComment-60961 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggman Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I have 10.4.4. That's what most people here have. And it's Tiger. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9759-please-help/#findComment-60964 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggman Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I forgot to mention that you can't use 10.4.4 yet. So I would go with 8F1111. I'll be on AIM in a minute.
