Yes, that makes perfect sense. Because you know, there won't be any driver issues that come up. Plus, switching old people this late in the game is bad idea. |

yeah i know. technically any computer you can use at home is a "personal computer".
and now that macs use intel it makes them even more a pc. |

so last night i decided to hook up speakers to my hackintosh to listen to music but thats when i realized my sound card was not working. i just assumed it worked because i installed the ALC889A kext during my osx86 install. tinkered around with it for a couple hours cuz i ran in to some problems. installed AppleHDA.kext with ALCinject.kext but that made my computer unbootable so i was freaking out because i thought i had to reinstall osx again. talked to some experts and found out it messed up my sata driver so i reinstalled that driver and had to tinker with my sata settings in the bios and then it booted again. finally installed VoodooHDA for my sound card and that worked so everything is finally working!
now i just need to hunt down a wifi card that is supported. at least LAN works. |

You'll go back to Windows within a week, trust me
Been there done that, sometimes use OS X, but 95% of the time it's still 7. |

no way. my other box is old and dying (running xp) and i was thinking about building a new box for windows but im thinking i might scratch that idea and stick with osx. i already got all the software i need on this thing and i love the feel of it. |
