Don't you just love Apple fanboys getting angry coz they spent a ridiculous amount of money on crappy hardware while we PC users enjoy their OS at half price

@pumpyagami

No it's not

[martyn2186]

im running a HP G62 -106sa, im going to hope there isnt much dif between your pavilion to my g62, ive been trying to find details on a decent distro for ages, but none seem to specifically support my laptop, so ill give the link to your guide a go, and hope for the best, if you know im wasting my time let me know :D

Nice vids by the way mate.

@martyn2186

You are not wasting your time BUT

My guide is old which means there are easier ways out there for a retail installation as is the one on my guide.For example you can use the Boot132 method by which you do not need anymore to have an installation of Leopard first in order to make Snow Leopard work and

If you dont mind you can use a distro which makes installation a whole lot easier.It will be as easy as installing windows but distros have other drawbacks compared to retail.

Thx

Hey GFOnyx, great Video!

I have another Question, I saw this black backdrop with hte holes at the beginning of Your video a couple of times. Is this included with a special MAC-Video-editing software? Where could I get it?

Would be nice to here from You...

Thanks a lot!

btw, I am trying to hackintosh my HP 6530b...

[GFOnyx]

@77558

It is included in iMovie which was used to make this video.

[blkckwhr]

Where did you get that screen saver in the background?

[TekTut0rials]

were you able to get sound working on this? If so also tell me your hardware specs on your HP laptop and if it can run 64bit if so I'll just buy this laptop and load hackintosh on it it will be my little hackbook lol <- :P

[MrCarpediemx4]

ok im trying for almost a month to find a way to put snow leopard on my dv9690ev but i need to modify bios and advanced option is locked how did you modified it? PLEASE HELP..

[CenzGFX]

If i tried converting my HP Pavilion DV6 entertainment pc to mac os leapord this way would it work? i have the version with AMD 2.3ghz dual core processor and 4gb ram, would going through the mediafire instructions work for me?

if anyone could reply it would be alot of help :) thanks

[AdamOnDemand]

Fabulous instruction, GFOnyx.... what brought me here is that you've succeeded on an HP Pavillion. I'm trying to install OSX as a dual boot w/Win7 on my HP dv9620us (AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-58, 4G ram, dual 120G SATA drives but no AHCI management on bios!). My current obstacle: I boot from the install DVD, and get the installation screen, but Disk Utility doesn't see my disks (no less partitions) at all -- only the back up external drive plugged in via USB. Any suggestions? THANKS

[sidthesk8erkid]

rad how do i do it

i have homeWork i can only do on a mac

[thestorm024]

@thestorm024 lol jk, though it will be in... 1952708576594870598460489 hours... that's how much it takes to download 6gb... aw :(

[thestorm024]

guess what? $700 (AUD) for a laptop higher power than a macbook, running the AOS with boot camp = my laptop!!!

im guessing my mac user friends are gonna kill me now for spending a quater of the price for something better than they have now :D
