Does your machine boot into the Apple OS?

I'm aware that the newer Intel-based Macs will run Win XP but I didn't know you could run a Mac OS on a regular 'IBM' machine.

I must confess it's a subject I know little about but I've certainly never heard of that particular setup.

The Mac OS, when installed on a Mac, will detect about 95% of known current hardware. Anything else you can download drivers from Apple or hardware manufacturer.

Sorry not much help, but I'm a little confused about this one :confused:

No, sorry but that just cracked me up ... :p

Go on, tell me how you got the Mac OS to 'install' on the second HD ... it does need a drive all of its own.

I know how too using an "emulator" or "VMware" that will work, which will take care of drivers, I also know you'll need a Mac Licence to err, use the software. ;)

I warn you now, unless you can tell me otherwise, that what you are doing can be construed as Pirating and as such I would be obliged to delete this thread.

The Mac software is designed for a Mac ... the Mac EULA, that's the Licence Agreement, clearly states ... For use on Mac hardware.

Why you want to put the Mac OS on a PC I know not, it is based on NIX which is basically another form of Linux, try Ububtu.

You will not find Mac PC drivers ... try Google. ;)

If you want the Mac OS, buy a Mac ... If you want Windows, buy a PC

If you want Freedom ... download Linux, its free and will work on a PC or a Mac
