Should I upgrade?
« on: March 20, 2011, 07:23:23 PM »
I built a Hackintosh computer according to the instructions found on Lifehacker about a year ago. I used all the same components listed on that site http://lifehacker.com/#!5351485/how-to-build-a-hackintosh-with-snow-leopard-start-to-finish. However, by the time I ordered my Mother Board the MB had been updated to rev 2. Everything per the instructions worked just fine and still does with the exception of About This Mac. When I try to use this function the computer reboots. Also, from time to time when I am watching video in Firefox. Netflix, youtube, etc. the computer will crash requiring me to hit the reset button or, the computer just automatically restarts by itself. I don't know if this is a fault of Firefox or my comp. It doesn't happen all the time but, enough to be annoying. When I built Old Hacky I used the following; Chameleon-2.0-RC2-r640. I know a newer version is out but, I am not sure if I should upgrade this or not. I am also wondering if I should upgrade all the time.

Also, the problem is that I am 3 IQ points above Moe, Larry, and Curly. (1 Point per Stooge). So, I am not even sure how to upgrade.

Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance.

Why don't you just test the new build? It should be beneficial but then again, the saying goes when something is working, don't try to fix it.
