Mac on a custom pc

Go to solution Solved by vanished,

It not entirely clear what you're asking but it sounds like Hackintosh to me, which, as has been mentioned, is not allowed here.

If that's not what you were describing (running Mac OS on a "PC"), please start another thread that more clearly explains what you are trying to do.

If that is what you were describing, do not start another thread.

Well I want to have a mac pc. Like one I can switch to.  I was wondering. I don't want erase my current hdd or ssd. They both have my windows files and stuff. I wwanted to know if I would have to buy a new ssd or HDD to have the os installed on.

Hackintosh discussion is not allowed JSYK.

 

you would have to purchase an Apple computer and Boot Camp windows and then transfer your files.
