How To Install Snow Leopard on a PC

[cookie4444100]

if you do this is there a way to get it back to original? And also can you lose everything like ur files and stuff of the computer?:)

[Ayan44]

good for you. what do you think about ruiing mac through vmware?

[Wixdfast2]

@Ayan44 It is possible, but in VMWare there isn't any graphical use, so it'll be very limited

[demon6937]

so fast man every action is matter of less than 1 sec

[demon6937]

for the amd user shud he use the nvenabler?

[94110mission]

This video is going by much too fast for me, esp. at the start. (how do I get to the Bios? How do I change it?) I have a Samsung NB30 netbook running Windows 7 home premium. I want to erase the drive and do a clean install of Snow Leopard, which I bought and have on CD. Can someone point me to a tutorial that will take me (a non-techie) step-by-step through the process, slowly. Thanks in advance.

[Finterton]

@Wixdfast2 - when i install it, it's installed i turn on my Pc, and it says that i have to restart my PC, i did it and it says it again.

[thymerishere]

[Wixdfast2]

@thymerishere They can be on different HDDs

[CreativeFXX]

I wont to make sure everything work on mine, before i decide to do this.

So first thing you did is use a boot disc and eject and download mac os x snow leopard. After that you download window 7. Made the boot screen different and easy to switch systems to. then u went back to snow leopard. Out of no where everything start to work.

i Just saying if i try that, will the interent and sound work or i need to install something to make it work.

[techguy245]

if i do this will it muck my new acer desktop up

[JandDPro1]

Ok. So i have an HP Pavillion DM4 basic setup(4gb ram, i5 Processor, yada yada) and i have windows 7 installed. Can i still install this or will i have to uninstall windows?

[AnayRogerFederer]

i used iatkos l1 to install lion but when I boot it comes to apple logo and takes 5 mins there. is this normal??

then after i successfully install it, it stays at the apple logo and does go furthur

[Lewiel11]

does it work ? i'm care about bug... if it doesn't work can i back to windows with the original cd of windows 7 ? thanks

[CpDragon5573]

Can You Still Open And Download Stuff For Windows?

[TomShootsPhoto]

@CpDragon5573 No. It's now a mac. You can keep windows tough, and dual boot.

[TheCchaud]

this works great !!!!!!

[microsnook3]

I installed the OSX and then it rebooted but I was unable to get the DVD out in time, and then it shut off, then I turned it on, and then ejected the DVD, then it went to Chameleon and then after that the apple logo flashed for a half a second and then it just keeps rebooting...

[microsnook3]

I cannot get this to install. Vaio VPCS111FM Graphics: Intel HD Processor: i5 Ram: 4GB Not sure what Kexts to install. Not sure what to do in BIOS. (it won't let me do a lot) Please help! Im stuck now. I tried booting from my flash drive to just reinstall Windows and now its not working. I would really like to get the OS X installed!!!! email me: microsnook@gmail.com or reply on here PLEASE!

[robilav]

My i7 computer that I loved so much is now destroyed :(((((

[Wixdfast2]

@robilav That's why I say to back everything up before hand. It's kind of common sense.

[MineKraftTK]

@robilav Wow.... format your harddrive and do a clean install of windows 7.

[FireSwordProductions]

@robilav you mean your hard drive :D

[ModifyPhase]

@robilav how u do that?

[TekTut0rials]

I'm using Hazard snow leopard 10.6.6i works perfectly for me :) I'm thinking of making a tutorial on how to get it without having to torrent each of the individual .rar files because it's just a pain in the ass. I might just release the .ISO image of it.

[Akatzuki004]

@TekTut0rials would be awesome. Im searching for a good tutorial, and well there are many but its sometimes hard to follow the details and steps.

[TekTut0rials]

@Akatzuki004 I was actually able to get the retail disk to work with my computer. :) I had to go into bios and enable something. after that worked instantly :)

[sonicandvideos]

@TekTut0rials ya you should send it to me

[jestinmahesh]

[Wixdfast2]

@jestinmahesh Burn the .ISO file to a DVD and boot the DVD from restarting your computer.

[swruswey]

Dude how do i update ?????????!!!!!!!

[Wixdfast2]

@swruswey To update to 10.6.8, there's a link for it on my website. To update to 10.7, watch the TonyMac video on using XMove

[synjerome]

Can't get pass "FakeSMCDevice: successfully initialized

[Wixdfast2]

@synjerome Before or after installation?

[synjerome]

@Wixdfast2 before :( I tried graphicsenabler=no npci=0x2000 bootflags but no use. It may something to do with my graphics card I have Intel 4 Express chipset Mobile. And my BIOS cannot edit HPET and APCI options. I'm trying to get a BIOS update tho... Is there any advice/solutions?

[Wixdfast2]

@synjerome How old is the laptop?

[synjerome]

@Wixdfast2 I have Toshiba m300 from 2009 with processor Intel Pentium Dual Core (Merom). Will it work?

[directdog291]

could i install this onto an external hard drive then boot from there insted of partitioning my built in hard drive?

[Wixdfast2]

@directdog291 Yes you can install and boot off of an external hard drive

[EthernetKid]

Thanks a lot for this video. Used this as my main reference since we have the same specs. But how can I update this to Lion? or at least 10.6.8?

[Wixdfast2]

@EthernetKid For 10.6.8 use the guide that's linked on my website. For Lion, use XMove.

[EthernetKid]

After I have 2 partitions, which should I install first? Window 7 or OS X Snow Leopard?

[Wixdfast2]

@EthernetKid OS X first

[lemon48794879]

now i get kernel panic maybe, you need to restart your computer etc. in multiple languages?

[Wixdfast2]

@lemon48794879 Which kexts did you install?

[lemon48794879]

@Wixdfast2 same one as you did on a ep43-ud3l with a e7400 and gtx260

[chirag1495]

@Wixdfast2 and i get the same problem that lemon48794879 is facing that asking the computer to restart in various languages

[Wixdfast2]

@chirag1495 Sounds like the wrong kexts were installed/or the right kexts weren't installed. Reformat and try again

[HawkShift]

@chirag1495

I get some kind of thing: "still waiting for root device"

You know a solution for this?

Thanks =)

[chirag1495]

@lemon48794879 Hey yeah even i do get the same error..!! but its not kernel panic...its something else....Did you find a solution to that?? If yes then please let me know too..!!

[lemon48794879]

can you help me? i get to the gray screen after what mac says a successful install and i get to the gray screen after selecting the os and it shuts down and changes some settings in the bios thanks in advance

[YoungTurtleTV]

@Bonezv2 you are stupid

you cant record while your booting

[chirag1495]

Hey ...please mate...help me i really want it ...i am still trying all the possiblities of different kexts..please can you tell me what kexts will work for me according to my system specs.....and yes one more thing do i have to change anything in my BIOS settings ...like changing SATA TO AHCI...?? please tell me all the possible things to make it work .....i am really desperate to have it please...!!

[Wixdfast2]

@chirag1495 Well whats your hardware?

[EthernetKid]

Is this on a ga ex58ud3r and corei7920?

How can I dual boot between win 7 partition and os x partition? They're on the same HD.

[Wixdfast2]

@EthernetKid Yes this is with my GA-Ex58-UD3R and my i7 920. And partitions separate the hard drive so that you can install OSes on separate paritions even though it's on the same drive.

[Wixdfast2]

@Bonezv2 I really don't make enough videos to justify a screen recorder

[chirag1495]

Hey..the installation went pretty smoothly until at the apple logo screen, i get a grey screen and the error reads as follows:"You need to restart your computer.Press ad hold the power button until it switches off and again press it to switch it on."

I've followed the above about hundreds or times...i restarted many a times but the message/error still appears...please help me any solution for this??

[linuxfreak23]

@chirag1495 look here above (comment from rudal90 and solved be wixdfast2)

[Wixdfast2]

@chirag1495 The wrong kexts were installed or the right kexts weren't installed. Reformat and rebuild.

[chirag1495]

@Wixdfast2 Ohh....well i actually reformated some 15 or 20 times and tried many various kexts....but yet it shows up the same error....i will give you my system specs ...can You Please Help me with the right kexts to be installed...please i am really waiting to get it..!!

[chirag1495]

@Wixdfast2 My system specs are as follows:

Intel Core 2 Duo E7400@2.80 Ghz

2.50 RAM

64-bit OS

Windows 7 Ultimate Service pack 1

Graphics: NVidia Geforce GT 220

Motherboard: ASROCK

[chirag1495]

@Wixdfast2 I just installed all those 4 kexts that you asked to install in the video. So do you think that they wont work for me?

[MrMiketheripper]

Unfortunately, when I try to install it just reboots and doesn't boot OS X

[Wixdfast2]

@MrMiketheripper Then the right kexts weren't installed. reformat and try again

[MrMiketheripper]

@Wixdfast2 OHHH

Well, I'm not exactly sure what to do and the installation takes forever. I've got 2gb of RAM, 2.8 ghz intel pentium dual core processor, ATI Radeon x300 Graphics Card. The computer itself is a Dell Dimension 4700 running the previous version (Leopard)

[Wixdfast2]

@MrMiketheripper How old is the laptop?

[MrMiketheripper]

@Wixdfast2 It's a desktop and it was out when Win XP was out so probably '02, 03, 04

[Wixdfast2]

@MrMiketheripper The slow installation would be either the harddrive writing slowly or the optical drive reading slowly, which is expected. As for kexts, if you're using 10.6.2 LeoHazard click: Mac_OS_X_10.6.2, Chameleon_RC4, ElliotForceLegacyRTC, Legacy_AHCI_SATA_Fix, IOATAFamily_SATA_Fix, SMBIOSResolver

[MrMiketheripper]

@Wixdfast2 Okay, I'll try that. Which update should I use to get 10.6.6 though? There's 3 on the leohazard site

[Wixdfast2]

@MrMiketheripper Use the link that I have in the Pre/Past installations tab of my website

[MrMiketheripper]

@Wixdfast2 Alright thanks

Unfortunately, I tried it again but it still did not work. Is there maybe an easier way to do this? If not, I'll stick to Windows and Ubuntu until I can get the Mac I want

[Wixdfast2]

@MrMiketheripper You could try posting on the InsanelyMac forum. They'll probably be able to tell you which kexts to used instead of me guessing.

[gw33to420]

trying it now ..thanks



[rudal90]

i've been following the step., but when apple logo appear my bios retart again.. can u help me?

[Wixdfast2]

@rudal90 Then the right kexts weren't installed. reformat and try again

[Camerawhizz]

is this works on laptop with 4gb ram , 500gb hardrive , with intel i5 ... ???

[marvelteam1]

if you install mac on windows 7 you can boot windows 7?

[Wixdfast2]

@marvelteam1 Well, you have to format the hard drive to install Mac OS X first and then install Windows after it. Then run EasyBCD and add the Mac OS X boot entry. And you should be able to dual boot the two OSes

[KyleInTheSummer]

Every time I try to boot from the Snow Leopard CD it keeps saying the selected boot device not available. Please help?

[Wixdfast2]

@KyleInTheSummer Have you configured your BIOS like I have instructed on my website?

[cheeezstik]

Hey just wondering if I could install it on my pc. specs are

mobo: asus m4a89gtd-pro-usb3

processor: amd phenom x6 ii 1055t

graphics: nvidia ecs 1024mb GT220(probably upgrading to a superior radeon 6850 card soon)

ram: 4gb 1333mhz

And my monitors are connected via vga cables.

Do you think mac osx would run on my system? Also, If it can, would I have to reinstall Windows 7 or can I install mac osx onto a different hard drive and have easyBCD still recognise it?

[Wixdfast2]

@cheeezstik If you install Mac OS X onto a different hard drive then boot into Windows EasyBCD should be able to recognize it.

[supersupergregory]

if i want to install with more cpu cores can i just write cpus=2 or 4?

[Wixdfast2]

@supersupergregory No, that code only refers to the install DVD to boot properly. Once you've installed it correctly, it should recognize all of your CPU Cores

[supersupergregory]

thanks for replying!

[BexSmall]

Hey is it possible to install Mac by mounting Snow Leopard rather than burning it onto a disk?

Only got 4.7 GB of disk space on my discs and I think Snow Leopard is around 6.13GB

[Wixdfast2]

@BexSmall The torrented version of LeoHazard SL is only 3.66GB

[darkshadow99910]

@Wixdfast2 heelo,i have a dell laptop with xp on it and i want to get mac on it,so do i download the file,extract it,then burn onto a cd,then reformat the drive from boot menu then install mac on it from the cd.PLEASE REPLY A.S.A.P i really want the mac operating system

thx in advance

[BexSmall]

@Wixdfast2 Had a different torrent at first :P

Downloaded the linked torrent in the description, and it's only 3.66GB because it's compressed.

When UnRar'd, it's 4.6GB and turns out my discs only hold 4.37GB although it says 4.7GB on the disc :P

[Wixdfast2]

@BexSmall Yeah the LeoHazard torrent only has 3.66GB of data, so using a single layer DVD will work just fine.

[BexSmall]

@Wixdfast2 Cool, so I can burn a compressed or zipped iso and it will still work fine?

[Wixdfast2]

@BexSmall I believe when you download the Leo Hazard torrent it's already in .ISO form. So just burn the .ISO file to a DVD and you'll be set.

[BexSmall]

@Wixdfast2 Cool, just burned it with Roxio Burn onto a single layer DVD-R.

But it doesn't recognize it after I've rebooted it, and goes straight to Windows, even though I've changed the BIOS correctly. Any idea what to do?

[Wixdfast2]

@BexSmall You're 100% sure that you've changed the booting order of your devices so that your DVD burner is the first drive over everything else?

[BexSmall]

@Wixdfast2 Yep 100%

Changed the booting order to the CD/DVD Drive first, over the Internal HDD

Changed the SATA setting to ATCHI.

Rebooted with the disk in the machine, and it just went straight to Windows.

I'm using a Dell Inspiron 1545

4GB RAM

320GB Hard Drive

Intel Pentium Dual Core Processor 2.3GHZ

Intel Graphics Card

[marvelteam1]

If You Install Mac Os x On Windows 7 your files gonna be deleted?

Pls answer

[Wixdfast2]

@marvelteam1 Yes, you'll need to reformat your drive to install Mac OS X and it's always good to have your files backed up anyways
