    The pre-2006 Mac desktops this not-very-active forum covers cannot run El Capitan. I first thought you were asking about the iMac in your equipment profile but it says it is running 10.7. Can you verify your Mac model so we can get you moved to a more active forum more appropriate to your equipment?
