Is this laptop compatible with El Capitan?

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

Mobo: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
Mobo: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

Note: When specifying your bootloader, if using Clover legacy, please be sure to specify "Clover legacy"). Specifying "Clover" will be assumed as "Clover UEFI"

I meant the Dell Inspiron 7548, it seems like a very decent laptop to run the Mac OS.

I have no idea what hardware is in it... I can only go off what is in your profile.

For information on what is compatible, suggest you read the FAQ.

You need to put hardware details in your profile, as requested.

And seems like the same laptop as covered by this thread. Given this thread is 22 pages long, I assume there is some amount of success with it.
