Hi there,

 

first of all: thanks a lot for all the input and efforts to make OSX run on a pc. I have been messing around with this for weeks and it's a lot of fun, but ... with mixed results ...

 

After several tiger installations (iatkos, etc.) which didn't work so well (no usb/audio, slow), I tried a leopard install with kalyway 10.5.2. Installation went smooth (but took 4hs!) and everything except audio is working great!

 

BUT: it's reaaallly slow! The start up process takes ages and my Xbench results are embarrassing:

My specs are:

----------------------------

Intel Pentium D 2.67

 

MoBo: ASUS P5RD1-VM

Chipset: ULi M1573

 

ATI Radeon 1900X GT

 

1GB RAM

 

Harddrive: Western Digital EIDE (IDE-ATA interface?!)

 

----------------------------

 

I already tried to switch off AHCI in the Bios, but cannot find the option anywhere.

 

I would really appreciate any help, because the slow performance is my last big issue on my way to a working osx86.

 

Thanks a lot! :rolleyes:
