Yes im fully aware that I should search for thigns like my ati driver... but maybe you can help me...

 

As soon as this CD finishes burning 3/4ths of the way done....

 

I will reboot and install the (GOOD) Jas 10.4.8 DVD on my Dell Dimension 9100.... But I need to know how to get a few things working

 

1) I have 5.1 1000watt speakers, so an audio fix would work nice. (i know there is one, but i dont know what card i have!!!

 

2) I have an X300, by ATI, A bad one... ATI X300 w/hypermemory :'( I'd like to get it working with Quartz

 

3) My integraded Braudcom Ethernet, is a MUST. I need to get it working... Have no clue what series it is.. etc.

 

4) Dual Screens, my Graphics Card has a DVI and VGA i have heard os x will only work with DVI... etc, i need both of my 19" Ultrasharps working, one DVI one VGA if possible

 

5) Anything else that you can think of for my Dimension 9100? - im not going to dual boot....

THANKS!!!

... Most painful install... Ever

 

The DVD installs it fine... and appearantly i have the good dvd :poster_oops:

 

.. .so I reboot after the install... and guess what happens....

 

The drive doesnt show any activity so i get sispisous... . I hit the powerbutton and the screens show a little like Cicrcle with an X or something in it... So I hold down the power button... I reboot it this time in verbose....

 

Now you know how when u load it in verbos it shows like 2 lines and then the screen rez changes?

Well.... It showed those 2 lines about 100 times, going at about 5 lines a second! Meaning it was there for about 20, ehh more like 10 seconds.... Then, It booted.... and it kept saying that it couldnt read or find i cant remember all of these different drivers!!!!!!!!!

I'm thinkin uhho... so now im :) and its now at Installing Base System Part 1 over again.... any ideas if this will happen again?
