I Installed the Hackintosh on this PC and typing this message from the same PC.

[CPU] Intel C2D 2.4 Ghz
[Mobo] Intel D945GCNL
[Ram] DDR2 667 (2 GB)
[HDD] Seagate HDD 160 GB SATA
[Optical] DVD RW Sony

I install Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.

It is working very fine but I have some issues:

My Graphics Driver is not working :(

Question: How to enable Intel Graphics Driver for this hackintosh Mac ?

Please help !

Updates:

1. I updated Mac OS X 10.5 to 10.5.8 , working gr8.

2. I successfully enabled Intel Graphics Driver, Now I can change my screen resolution to full HD 1080p.

If any one is interested I can post the pics, so please tell me.

Sure dude.. post the pics.. also, why aren't you on Snow Leopard? That works well on AMD so it should work well on Intel too..

I am on FIELD TRIAL :)

I am just trying out the new Hackintosh I just installed.

I will also try Snow Leopard because I have fallen in LOVE with Mac. :grin: :grin:

Pics will come soon... but I want to create a separate thread for the Camera Shots, if mods can allow that to me.... (it will inspire others :lol: )

Best way to know whether system supports MAC or not is to install MAC in Virtual Machines such as VMWare Player or Virtual Box..

Hmmmmm....

Screenshot will mislead.... members will think I am using a REAL Mac :grin: :grin:

The Camera Shot reveals it is a REAL PC with Mac On It :grin: :grin:

Regarding @sygeek's comment:

I don't want someone else to pick up my Camera Shots and post in some other forum as their own. (this has happened with me before)

Nicely done, Tech&Me. I don't know if mods would allow it, but a detailed step by step guide would be helpful. :D


And is it a dual boot system?

Thanks @Zangetsu and @Skud for your valueable comments :wink:

@Zangetsu That wallpaper is the default wallpaper that comes with mac.

And NO , I donot have a Dual Boot at this time. The Harddisk on the right side of the screen you see is as follows:

First HDD :. Is the 160GB with Hackingtosh Mac

Second HDD:. Is the Server 2008r2 (i cannot access windows system folder from mac, all other files can be accessed.)

If I need to go to Server 2008r2, I need to change the boot priority in the bios as of now. Don't know how to put it in Mac bootloader.

Mr.Awesome
yes v can , but i tried everything as op written bt no use for me .
last try was I only connected 80 gb fat32 formatted hdd, 4gb ram , AHCI SATA mode, such a waste of time..
maybe my config is not compatible..
