Hackintosh take 1

[undergrad]

This will be my first Hackintosh and I would like to know if any of my computer parts may be problematic beforehand.

Intel Core i7 870 2.93Ghz
GA-P55M-UD4
PowerColor HD5770 1GB GDDR5
4GB Corsair XM3

I have already downloaded iBoot, MultiBeast and I have a retail copy of Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

Cheers,

Daniel

Do you already have these parts ?

Check my blog for detailed instructions for your build.

Excellent writeup.
Now my only task is figuring out which driver I need to install from MultiBeast in order to get my video card working properly.. Hopefully I don't have any issues dual booting my system either.

You'll need one of the ATI enablers...
Note that Multibeast has changed quite a bit since I blogged about it, but if you understand the rationale for each choice, you should have no issues adapting to the current one

Good Luck !

if you use Chamleon with ATI Experimental you do not need the enablers. this will be a very simple install

Excuse me for being a complete noob, but what is this ATI Experimental?

its part of the latest Multibeast so you are covered.

Select Bootloaders / Chameleon 2.0 RC5 - ATI Experimental
