Hello, I am having problems with installing the OSX on my Compaq Presario SR1111NX desktop. I have tried everything from Boot 132, The Patched Leopard, TheHotfix leopard install.
These are my encounters with each one i tried.

Boot 132: My computer would reboot itself as soon as the apple logo would pop up.

The Patched Leopard:

Here are my Specs
Processor: Intel Celeron 325
Specification: Intel® Ceneron® CPU 2.53 GHz
Intructions: MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3
Chipset: Intel/i845G

I have not gotten any farther than the apple logo in any.


Thanks in advance. Please Help. All i want to do is install MacOSX on my PC
(FYI, I have a retail Installation disk -it came with my original macbook-)

You can email me at ms1nanabanana@yahoo.com with any info
THANKS

Try this method http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...=127330&hl=

And remember to use -v boot flag then installing.

Hi! And thanks for your reply. However this guide requires you to have Leopard installed. But i have yet to get past the Apple Logo screen. Please help

Try Kalyway 10.5.1. Boot with -v flag to see possible errors. Install without any drivers/patches selected. Install them later. Be sure to select EFI boot loader (ether MBR or GUID versio depending on how the disk is formatted).

Use boot-132 and make sure you have a modified kernel on the pre boot disc. And the retail disc you say that came with your MacBook would be a restore disc, not a retail disc, and would not work.

wooooww!! thanks! thats probably why its not working. Now im off the buy the retail disk. Would snow leopard stilll work with boot-132?
