No AHCI == No OSX?

[leeyee]

use UniBeast - Lion 1.5.3 to build a Lion 10.7.4 bootable usb stick , then replace the IOATAFamilly.kext in yourusb/System/Library/Extensions , then reboot and you can go to the installer with all HDD recognized as well.

It works perfectly on my DELL Inspiron 620.

Almost all mainboards and stock computers ship with AHCI enabled.

H61 doesn't, mate I'm stuck with a Dell Optiplex 390 here.

I'm a beginner, so I can't really catch a glimpse of what you guys are saying
I want to install Snow Leopard, since it's made for x86.

Is there anyway I can install it? Software solution? Or hardware one, like a separate card in a free slot or something. Please don't suggest something like "please change your mainboard."

Thanks guys, in advance.

There's nothing to work out. No AHCI = no hack and that's sadly that.

Are you guys still looking for the Dell 620 AHCI mode? Theres a bios patch which is what i used, now i have IDE, AHCI and RAID in BIOS
Theres also a video on youtube this guy made, check that out
