pacificz Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Hey guys I am having a little problem installing the snow leopard. It freezes at the apple logo screen during the installation. Is it due to having an IDE drive? Anyways i tried Nawcom BootCD and this is what i got. Can anyone tell me what is the problem? http://imageshack.us...9/snc01657.jpg/ http://imageshack.us...0/snc01658.jpg/ And this is my computer specs Operating System: Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 2 (2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.100216-1441) System Manufacturer: INTEL_ System Model: D865GBF_ BIOS: BIOS Date: 08/04/05 00:31:45 Ver: 08.00.10 Processor: Intel® Pentium® 4 CPU 3.00GHz (2 CPUs) Memory: 1022MB RAM Page File: 391MB used, 2069MB available DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904) I think i have to use some kexts because i have an IDE drive but i don't know how to use them before installing snow leopard. Can anyone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rlf Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 The pictures you present just don't give enough clues to the problem. It is not your fault. When you tried to install the first time, what distro did you use? The problem you had probably was not because you have an IDE drive. Try that first distro and when it asks you to hit F8, do so. Then type -v and <Enter>. This will put you into verbose mode where you get messages instead of the Apple. When it hangs, post a picture just like you did with Nawcom's ModCD.

funktank Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 When the disc loads, press F8 and use the following; -v cpus=1 busratio=20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
