Full Version: Hackintosh on ASUS K53e Notebook?

Is is possible to install Hackintosh Slow Leapord using Bootloader and Official Instalation disks on a K53e notebook? Would the ethernet work? Would sound work etc?

If it is possible could someone give me a link to a in-depth tutorial where I can use a bootloader and my official apple snow leopard installation disks.

Haha sorry about that I corrected it, you got my hopes up I thought someone had replied telling me if I could or couldn't install it.
Bump still looking for help with this!
I mean it looks like it would be able to... However I would recommend just installing 10.5 (leopard).

I would do this if I had a guide to follow, I can't seem to find a guide for my laptop anywhere.
I remember there was a time I wanted to install something like this on my computer & there was ever a site that was to help me out. Let me look around & I'll get back to you on that.

Use the wiki and if you still can't find what you're looking for, ask on the forums.

I actually use a mac so I don't go on there as much as I used to.
I have a ASUS K53E, and have successfully hackintoshed it using OSX Mavericks (10.9.1).

I used this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eS4rJCIFc_k
