Trouble installing FCP4 on an Intel MacBook

[JackMaht]

I get the error of "Configuration Error: This software requires certain hardware or software which is missing.
• AGP graphics card." This dosnt make much sense to me, as im sitting next to a G4 running the same application. Help?

Thanks, Jack

It's gotta be intel / universal software to run on the Intel. 4.0 is not universal. It works on your G4 because that's the old IBM chip.

Take care.

You might love me forever for this....

1. ctrl click FCP icon
2. select view package contents
3. w/in contents, find and *open "info.plist"
4. find AGP and change it to PCI.
5. save the file.

*Open the "info.plist" in text edit not the OmniOutliner.

You now have a working FCP on your standard Macbook!

Congratz!

I did this on my 2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook with FCP 4.5 HD, worked like a charm.
