dailyinspirit Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Hi Guys... Thanks for any help. I have tried a Dual Boot project; Vista business and Mac OS X( JAS 10.4.8). I am new to Mac and having problems interpreting the forums as terminology and tips are given. My system is Dell Latitude d630, 2 gb ram, intel core 2 duo T7250 2GHZ, SATA 160 GB HDD. I partitioned the drive with vista and installed in the first partition then installed JAS 10.4.8 in the second partition. After several attempts OS X installed and appeared to be working; no keyboard or touch pad, no sound; video and wireless worked; no lan; usb ports worked; using usb keyboard and mouse. Finally decided to shut down and reboot Now, this is where I am stuck. When I cold boot the unit the apple page displays; then a blue screen; than a black screen; no video. The HD light continues to flash as if the system is booting but I can see anything. I attached an external monitor. The video transfers to the external monitor. It displays the background and two untitled folders The mouse pointer is active and that it... nothing. Does anyone have any idea as to what I should try next other than reinstalling JAS 10.4.8? Much appreciated. dailyinspirit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decided to go back to drawing board do more research and try another version: Iatkos V7: Gateway Laptop: Model 6020GZ CPU: AMD Turion64 1.4Ghz Memory: 1GB Video: ATI Raedon Xpress 200m HDD 40GB IDE Optical: CDW/DVD TS-L462A After numerous installs I got it to work: Sound; LAN; Wireless; Video - OK Display Resolution: only 1024 x 768; USB keyboard / mouse; power; Display has bad backlight so i attached external 17" wide screen monitor. Work great. I will post setup under leopard forum. Anyone has driver for ATI Raedeon Xpress 200m; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
