How to Run Mac OS X Leopard on a PC (5 Steps)
Insert the Mac OS X install disc into your PC, right click on it and select 'Make CD/DVD Image.' If you don't have this option, then you may need to install a program like Nero or Magic ISO Maker.
Download the PC-EFI patch for Leopard OS X and follow the install instructions to patch your Leopard ISO file. This patch makes it possible to install OS X on a PC without manually changing your BIOS (firmware) settings and patching OS X to run on PC processors.
Insert a blank DVD and burn the patched OS X install. Select a slow burn speed to minimize write errors. If your DVD-burning software has a 'verify disc' option, then enable it while burning the Leopard disc.
Restart your computer and press the F12 key during startup to boot from the OS X Leopard disc. Choose the appropriate installation for your computer's processor (i.e. select the AMD install if you have an AMD processor), choose the language for OS X and select your installation preferences. Note that not all OS X software works perfectly on a PC, so a minimal installation is recommended for first-time 'hackintosh' builders.
Restart your computer once the installation is finished and follow the on-screen instructions to set up your admin account for OS X. If you ever want to go back to Windows, then insert a Windows installation disc, restart your machine, press F12 during launch and boot from the disc.

How to Make My Wireless Network Invisible
Enter the administration interface for your router or access point. Use your Web browser to connect to this interface by navigating to the address required by your device (for example, http://192.168.1.1).
Browse to the wireless setting page in the administration interface. This page typically includes options for changing the wireless network mode, wireless network name, wireless channel, and the SSID (Service Set IDentifier) broadcast.
Disable the SSID broadcast and save your settings. The router or access point should reboot to enable the new settings.
Enable the SSID only when performing networking maintenance or connecting other computers to the network. However, even without the SSID broadcast, you can connect to your network by simply manually entering the network name, so try to keep the SSID broadcast disabled at all times.
Continue to use encryption such as WPA (or WEP, if WPA is not available on your device). Disabling SSID can help thwart casual outsiders, but more experienced intruders can still use sniffing techniques to find and access your network. Encryption can help prevent such intrusions.
