Again, this discussion is about the A white MacBook. You have a Pro, which is a different machine entirely. I sell Macbook duo cores on Craigslist. While the hacks can get you to Mavericks or beyond unless its a Macbook Pro I just wouldn't.
Google reFind. Take note of CPU and Ram use. Its lower then OS X. Windows requires extra drivers. Check out the Bootcamp updates or find drivers for sound, etc. On a budget? Some have 4gb ram.

And yes it is just wasting your time because your hardware won't run optimal on those OS.
So stay on Lion or Snow Leopard. I agree you can put up to OS X The graphics are a little dodgy but for the most part it's fine, I even got the Internet to work right.
Hi, i have macbook white and i have install on it Yosemite with mac post factor,but the mac is very slow,ha e a problem with the graphic,forse Exemple the game than i play with lion is all' fine ,with Yosemite the game ha e a low framerate,i have read in this discussion than there are utents than have installa Yosemite fine,how have we doing it? Poor graphics. Poor internet using.. Thinking about some graphics adjustments, but is not usable.. I don't recomend this upgrade..
Using OS x Miles Raymond. Just beware that there might be some issues due to the incompatibility of newer OS software on officially unsupported hardware. It can also install Hi, thanks Mine's model identifier is 2,1. According to the macrumors. I had serious problems on my macbook pro when I upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, so I had to go back to Mavericks.
The computer worked fine and, as I was considering purchasing another macbook, I decided to try to upgrade to El Capitan as a last attempt to keep this workhouse of a computer. To my surprise, I saw that the app store allowed me to download the upgrade and I figured I had nothing to lose. I thought everything was going to freeze up and not work, but everything worked perfectly. Please note, that I do not use any processor graphics or otherwise intensive programs and use this computer mostly for email, web browsing and excel work.
Therefore, I would not do the upgrade if you intend on using any programs that work fine on the current OS you are running. That being said, the best thing about the upgrade is that it gave this old horse new life and allowed me to use imessage, as well as pick up phone calls from my iphone, on the laptop.
I was surprised it work. Now, I'm wondering if I should upgrade the hard drive to an SSD, along with replacing the superdrive which died two years ago, and try to get another two years out of this bad boy. I hope this post helps. As you stated, the SSD change was not dramatic but it did speed it up just enough to get another few years from this bad boy. The A is a workhorse even by todays standards.
A SSD will speed things up but not dramatically but you will notice a difference. You can replace the superdrive. I would have the SSD in the main bay and use a rpm mechanical hard drive in the Superdrives place. Make sure you buy the correct internal caddy for it.
It was a pain to remove the Superdrive so be careful. I'll try with 4Gb and a SSD when i'll have the money to buy.
Yes, but this conversation is about As white non-unibody MacBooks , and your laptop is an aluminum Pro -- totally different animal. There are hacks such as Macpostfactor and others that can be used to place Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosmite and even El Captain on unsupported Macbooks, iMacs and even older machines. Look on Youtube for instructions. Many users have have great success with these methods. Newer versions of OSX are not going to always run well on unsupported Macs. Don't get me wrong they work but these older machines simply lack the graphic cards to always do well.
Nothing run with trying the hacks though. Personally I'd go with Linux. Elementary OS runs fine on these machines. Storage Type:. Maximum Resolution:. Screen Size:. Operating System:.

It was also faster than last year's MacBook Pro, although the margins were not very significant, reinforcing our view that Intel's revamped Centrino Duo platform, while valuable, hasn't translated into significantly better performance. Compared with the recently updated non-Pro MacBook, the Pro gives us a decent boost in performance, but unless you need the Pro's vastly superior video abilities, you might be able to save a few bucks and go with the inch model.
Running Quake 4 at 1,x, with antialiasing turned on, we got 65 frames per second from the updated Pro, while only Perhaps the biggest improvement in the revamped MacBook Pro is in battery life. Bear in mind the DVD battery drain test is especially grueling, so you can expect longer life from casual Web surfing and typical office use.
