Hey guys,

I recently bought a Dell Studio 17 from Fry's Electronics. I would appreciate some help when installing Snow Leopard on a separate partition I have created on my hard drive. The specs are available through this link: (http://www.frys.com/product/6273060) or;

 

Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-720QM Quad Core Processor 1.6GHz (2.8GHz Turbo Mode, 6MB Cache)

Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4650 graphics with 1024MB memory

Memory: 6GB Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM

Communications: Intel 6200N (WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n), 10/100/1000 ethernet

 

As long as I can install Snow Leopard successfully for now I can worry about wireless etc for now.

I've already tried several guides here and on the internet, none have worked yet; my screen goes almost fuzzy, almost like a static screen when viewing an old TV set.

 

Could anyone point me in the correct direction? I have the Mac retail disc to let you know.

Much appreciated,

Lawrence

Okay here's a photo of the fuzziness I described in the last post. To clarify this only happens when I use verbose mode.

 

I'm still using the Mac OSX Snow Leopard retail disc, I've tried using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and empire. When I don't use verbose mode; after the apple boot screen all I see is a blank white/grey screen and nothing appears to happen after this, help would be much appreciated.
