Guest Ramm Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I don't see why not. It didn't work for me though - but I have a {censored} video card. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/44426-parallels-in-hackintosh/#findComment-317993 Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapdaddy Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Works like a charm on my thinkMac. I use Parallels all day every day. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/44426-parallels-in-hackintosh/#findComment-318044 Share on other sites More sharing options...
errandwolfe Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Parallels runs fine on both AMD (with a bit of tweaking) and Intel hackintoshes. The key to running it well though is memory. I found the sweet spot for me was about 3gb, but maybe I push my system a bit much. I am able to run WinXP in a VM on Parallels running all my business apps. At the same time I have iTunes going on my Mac, Firefox loaded, Azureus running, and then playing a game of World of Warcraft....Having a dual screen system rocks! Oh yeah...so yeah Parallels runs fine on Hackys. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/44426-parallels-in-hackintosh/#findComment-318059 Share on other sites More sharing options...
consolation Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Parallels runs fine on both AMD (with a bit of tweaking) and Intel hackintoshes. The key to running it well though is memory. I found the sweet spot for me was about 3gb, but maybe I push my system a bit much. Works fine for me with 1GB, set windows to have max 384MB - enough to run XP OK and enough left over for OS X.

Zulu.Walker Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Works well under OSX86, just make sure you have enough RAM to run it well. You don't want to kill your HD with Page-Out frenzies.
