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.

the first startup “animation” with the white background is actually a very high resolution video and its horrible like that on most pcs when first setting up. i guess they just didnt want to bother with making that into an actual animation and pre installed windows laptops and pcs already have drivers and they can play the high res video there

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.

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.

macbooks throttle a lot without a battery. i think if you put the battery in and put an ssd in there it can probably can run windows 11 quite ok

I managed to install win10 64bit in using a clean ssd formatted in mbr. The installation i did through another computer and then plug back to the mac. I was trying to install win11 on a macbook unibody but somehow it loops to the boot. Did not install or add a boot manager.

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).

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."
