I don't know if this is the right section so sorry, but I wanted to dual boot mac ox86 and windows 7, but was having trouble finding out if my hardware was compatible to do all this. I have a hp dv2910us with pretty much factory everything. Can anyone please help me out.
Well I just keep seeing things like you need a certain disk image that's been tweeked but I just bought the $29 leopard upgrade disk, would that still work? It's the full image. And also if someone could point me to a good guide
Oh wait I think you have me mixed up. I have a pc and I want to run oxs, so I won't be needing bootcamp
You can run Bootcamp on a Mac, but not on a PC. You are basically trying to instal a Unix OS on a system not designed for it. Unfortunately, its impossible with your setup. Snow Leopard will only run with Hardware recognized by the Mac utilities. You could build a Mac Clone, but I doubt anything HP has is compatible. If you have not opened the disc, I would return it for refund. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, as I am a Mac specialist. (Sorry Guys) The relationship[ between Apple and Microsoft was one sided towards Apple, and with the proprietary issues, would not allow Microsoft any direct compatibility Software wise. Building a clone is another story though and can be quite an advanced procedure.
