can u help me i'm trying to instal mac os x leopard on my PC, i have a intel i7 920 with 8gb of DDR3, the motherboard is a ASUS Rampage 2 extreme, x2 Nvidia Geforce GTX 280. and i try to instal iATKOS v7 but when is about to start it will boot agin and it will keep the same everything i try to boot Mac os can u tell how can i do it to solf this problem

First: I am not sure if the iATKOS v7 works ?!?! I use the V5 and that one works like a charm.
Second: I suspect your pc reboots before you can get to the installation? In that case try to set you "Drive properties" to AHCI (in the BIOS)

You won't believe this... I found the solution!


--------EDIT--------
IMPORTANT!! USE THE IATKOS DISTRO
---------------------

--------EDIT 2--------
If you want to dual boot (with windows 7 for example) Easiest way to acomplish this is to use 2 HD's and use the first one for OSX86 and the second for Windows. (OSX can be a pain in the a** because it wants to be the first)
---------------------

Change this in the bios:
-Change CPU Cores to "1"
-Turn Hyperthreading Off
-Under the Advanced tab go to drive configuration and change IDE to AHCI (with our motherboards it's under a different tab, I'm not at home so I can't check now)

After the installation you can change the CPU cores back to "All"

Then select these settings when you get to the installation:
-Chameleon Boot Loader (uncheck PC EFI V9)
-Apple Decrypt
-DSMos
-SMBIOS-EFI
-SMBIOS-Enabler
-AppleSMBIOS-28
-9.5.0 FASSL Kernel
-X86 ACPI
-DISABLER.KEXT
-Graphics Update
-NVKush (depends on what graphics card you use)
-Intel SATA
-Intel AHCI Sata


Worked perfectly for me!
