Happy to try if you could explain how? John

I believe it's not nvidia John

Update Ran the standard my hack and their extra folder last night, however when you get the option to choose your own extra folder located the osx version for my xps and again the same warning to close my machine down came up. It has surely to be something in that boot pack, help people.... John

ok so ran the repair, still the same issue, re-created the boot pen and still same issue. I decided to try standard my hack extra folder and it loaded, although obviously with issues, no wifi, and when you go back to reboot its a black screen. this makes me wonder if its not something thats in the standard my hack extra folder but isnt in the m1330 bootpack? help as always appreciated John

Will do as will update, thanks Bronx John

Hi all So I've used my hack 3.1, created the boot pen, switched extra folders and tried to load onto my xps m1330 and it very quickly stalls and tells me to power down, hasn't got past that point. Help Didn't have this issue when using older my hack on d630 so not sure why it won't load John

So I created the boot pen fine yesterday, but when I come to load, it gives me 3 windows boot images and one osx, when I choose that it looks like its going to load and then a warning comes up tell ing me to restart, by holding the power button? Help

Thanks Syonagar let the games begin then John

morning all firstly thanks for putting the EDPs for my m1330 machine, but now they are there i want to go and load osx onto my dell, however i don't want to wipe my windows partition if i can help it. its currently split in two with ubuntu on one partition and win on the other, im looking to sacrifice ubuntu for OSX and want to know if i can boot into that partition from the usb pen and not affect my windows partition??? many thanks in advance John

thanks very much John

So am I right in thinking that if I follow the d630 download and add the two Kexts mentioned below I should end up with OSx on my m1330? When and where do I add the kexts? John

Thanks for that clarification Bronx. Therefore would I be right in thinking that using the d630 method which is all on a USB pen would work, giving me a 32 bit osx? How do I get a 64 bit osx machine? What about iboot (chameleon, stolen and rebranded) and multifail? They claim to work with any core2 machine? Thanks in advance John

It seems to have the intel 965 not nvidia or x3100, not sure how that affects your advice? John

Hi there First of all thanks to the site, helped me set up my friends d630, i've managed in the past to set up a mini 10v but that was fairly straight forward as there is a group solely focused on that. I've just got the XPS m1330 as mentioned above and want to ideally put both ubuntu and SL on to it but mainly SL, what i'm not sure is what is the best way to do it, i like your methods with the latitudes but i don't know if they will work with my xps? I have the intel wifi card so will replace that for the broadcom one which i think should work? again i'm not sure if it will but from all the blogs it would seem to.. Any help would really be appreciated. Regards John
