Try OpenCore Legacy Patcher

[–] sfu@lemm.ee 3 points 5 days ago

I've seen similar options, but haven't heard of this one. Looks like my 17 yr old comp might be compatible. I wonder how compatible though, since most of my USB ports already don't work with my supported OS.

Anyway, thanks, I'll look more into it.

Will installing / using this reset or format the Mac? I mean, as a first time install thing.

Believe so, yes. You have to clean install the OS with a installer made using the tool.
