2006 macbook pro 2.33 ghz core 2 duo latest os

Through trial and error I found that my old MacBook from 2007 didn’t support Ubuntu 64 bit so I found a 32 bit distribution of Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS that worked for my machine. 2006 MACBOOK PRO 2.33 GHZ CORE 2 DUO LATEST OS 64 BIT

I tried in vain to create EFI bootable USB drives with Ubuntu that my old MacBook would recognize when I started up the computer holding down the OPTION key. I tried Etcher and Unetbootin neither one made USB bootable drives that were recognized by my old MacBook.

While Apple does discuss the C2D's ability to handle 64 bit code it appears as though the proc is willing but the motherboard isn't able.Īnyone want to correct me I will be happy as can be but I believe Apple isn't touting this as 64 bit cause it isn't.

The bus has 32-bit wide data running in both directions. The processor bus is an up-to-667 MHz bus connecting the processor to the North Bridge IC. Processor has 32 bit addressing on its bus: It has the following features:Ĭonnection to the North Bridge IC over a 667 MHz frontside bus The microprocessor in the 17-inch MacBook Pro is an Intel Core 2 Duo with a clock speed of 2.33 GHz. The input clock to the processor PLL is 333 MHz.įrom the developer guide for the MacBook Pro: The North Bridge IC implements an independent processor interface. The point-to-point architecture provides each subsystem with dedicated bandwidth to main memory. Each front-side bus has a 64-bit wide data bus. The dual, independent processor buses run at 1333 MHz and connect the processors to the North Bridge. Processor has 64 bit addressing on its bus: Supports Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T) Two dual-core, 2.66 GHz Intel Xeon processors or configure-to-order options of two dual-core 2.0 GHz or two dual-core 3.0 GHz Intel Xeon processorsĬonnection to the North Bridge IC over a 1333 MHz frontside bus The microprocessors in the Mac Pro are Dual-Core Intel Xeon with the following features: Although I remain optimistic (my C2D 17' is on order) it would appear that the laptops are not 64 bit clean.įrom the developer guide for the Mac Pro: Processor is 64 bit capable.
