Installing Windows 11 on a CURSED MacBook from 2008!

Ғылым және технология

To my regular viewers: I'm sorry this isn't a documentary style video like what I normally make, but I just haven't been up to the task of making one as of recent. More documentaries coming soon but not now. Also I'm never recording on my iPhone 13 microphone again.
In today's video, I am going to be attempting to install Windows 11 on my 2008 MacBook that has some rather... cursed aspects to it, such as keys on the keyboard not working, the CPU throttling and it turning itself on when I plug it into the wall.

    Why is this interlaced? Even the screen recordings are, did you render it like that? Sill, nice video!

    Rendering issue, set the wrong framerate. I'll fix it in future videos

    The batteries in these old macs are dangerous mine started to balloon and I had to tear it down to take it out. It’s easy to get windows 10 installed but when you do updates and restart it crashes.

    I had a bunch of things written but chrome crashed and I lost everything. So instead I'll say good video! A critique is the audio getting loud and clipping. Idk if the interlacing is a stylistic choice or not so I wont comment on it. Also, "I accidentally an entire BeOS install" came to mind when I say BeOS, also "rEFInd beans."

    Can't imagine this era of computers ever having OpenGL support on post-Windows 7 OSes, unless you count Linux. I had the same issue when I was using my core 2 era VAIO.

    I think it’s an Intel GMA specific problem, never had any issues with ATI/NVIDIA from this era. Intel’s GPU drivers at this time period were HOT GARBAGE (e.g. the GMA 900 *never* got support for WDDM/Vista).

    Windows update drivers does not come with OpenGL, usually, try install the drivers from Intel web side.

    Doesn't that macbook only have 2 GB of RAM? I have the exact same model, and it only has 2 GB of RAM. If yes, then how are you booting Windows 11? Windows 11 requires 2 GB of RAM. Or is it an TinyOS version?

    The RAM is upgradable to up to 4GB and that's what this MacBook has.
