I bought a 4530s with an i3 processor 2.29GHz
Need Snow Leopard for Rosetta and want to replace an old MacBook Pro
Followed all instructions on site and installed in an hour
Ran Geekbench and got a score of 1716
Ran Geekbench on my old MacBook Pro @ 2.16GHz and it scores nearly 3000
In theory the HP should be way faster???
I thought it may be BIOS so upgraded to F.20 which killed everything
Learned how to boot with no DSDT and repaired it
Put Windows drive back in machine and did Geekbench in Windows(32)
Scored 4764
What is going on?
Only real anomaly is that the RAM is reported as 0GHZ by Geekbench but not by OS
Other benchmark tests are reporting it as way slower than my old (slower) Mac
Any clues please?
Many thanks
Mark
