Hi guys, I'm creating a Hackintosh! Any help or experiences you can give me? This is my first try and I would like not to screw anything up!

You can run Mac OS X on a PC... OSx86Project.Org (http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page)

I always found the hackintosh to be something I would want to do but not like to do. TBH the only reason I would do it is to say I have done it. I hope you get it to work

Go check out MacRumors.com, it's a great forum for all things Mac and Hack. I'm pretty sure I read a thread on there about boot loaders the other day. EDIT: Here's a quote from the thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1096002) Flash forward to a few months ago, October 2010. I find out that there is a new community (tonymacx86) that has created a simple bootloader to install OSX. I decide to give it a try. I buy $800 worth in computer parts from newegg, gigabyte mobo, core-i7 quad 2.8gHz, 8gb ram, caviar black, blu ray drive, and a $30 retail copy of Snow Leopard. Put it all together, pop in the bootloader, pop in the installation CD, it installs as if it's a normal mac computer. Restart, run software update, now I'm running 10.6.6 native. I've had it running in my living room (as a media server) for 4 months now. No crashes, not one. Solid as a rock. Backs up with my time capsule, all other macs in the house see it as a mac pro. Couldn't be simpler. Good luck with the build.

A hackintosh is essentially a PC made to use Mac OS. A lot of people do it to save money since Macs are quite expensive, a Hack does come with risks though. OS updates could potentially cause the computer not to work.

Right now I'm trying to use iDeneb to install but it has been stuck at 3 minutes left for about 3 hours. So I'm download Kalaway 10.5.2 right now. (For testing purposes, I will not use pirated software forever lol)
