Magsec4 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 My OS X boots to a black screen (actually the monitor says there's no input signal) after the gray apple screen with the spinning thingy under it. I'm pretty sure all my hardware was supported (10.4.7). Also, I have an ATi x1600, and my ISO came with drivers that said they were for ATi x1300, x1600, & x1900 (I'm pretty sure), so I installed that. Could the drivers be causing the problem? Also, I only have one monitor, and it's not trying to output to a secondary monitor because I've tried that. Any ideas anyone?

alvar Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 (edited) I installed OS X 10.4.6 with your tutorial. Everything seems ok, only that when OS X starts there's problems with graphics- i see only black screen with some crazy colours on it. Seems like i need some videocard drivers or somehting. I have ATI Mobility Radeon 9700. I'll try to solve it and let you know if it works properly or not. Any suggestions welcomed!

amunhoz Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Hi, I installed Mac OS X in my ThinkPad R40 successfully. It works pretty nice but I have a little problem: my internal network card doesn't work so I need to use a PCMCIA D-Link DFE-690TXD. The only driver that I found for this card is for PPC. I captured the device ID and the vendor ID for this card and tried to edit the file /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext/Contents/Info.plist with the information 0x13401186 (device id + vendor id) but I was not able to make the network card to work. I installed the PPC driver to see if it would work and now I have no idea how to uninstall it. 1. Any clue how to uninstall the PPC driver? 2. Where can I find an Intel driver for this card? 3. Any idea how to make this thing work? Besides, I also have a problem with my video card (I think): neither the Chess nor the screensavers work. They crash right after I initiate them. How do I solve this? Thanks a lot for the help.

peterblood Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 TVT, You may do a DVD less instalation using VMWare. Set up your VM with 'physical disk' and perform the first part of instalation under vmware. Then use chain0 for booting under the new disk to complete the instalation.

radan Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 tips for those who havent yet booted the jas. dvd. Do the whole guide once again. Unistall Deamon Tools and install again. (worth a try) Find a clean JAS. Mine is 10.4.6 Mount it in deamon tools. (Drive F: in my case) Specify the Drive F: in Workstation.

onlineluver Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 (edited) Hi! Thanks a ton for the detailed guide. I was able to install MAC OS X 10.4.7 effortlessly however i am facing a problem: When the system booted for the first time, after the initial white screen with grey colored apple, i got a screen with crippled graphics and some statusbar at the center. The next screen was worse as i couldnt make out what was mentioned to me in that garbled sentence - it said something like press the right button, press the left button etc. I tried pressing all types of keys on the laptop but all i got was a purple patch with a white X and then the system froze restarting the system doesnt help as all i finally get now is a small white box somewhere towards the center and one purple patch with a big white X on the top right hand corner and after 10-15 secs the system freezes again! Any kind of help on the same would be highly appreciated.. the laptop that i have is of the following config: HP nx7400 Pentium Core2Duo 1.66 GHz 1 GB RAM 100 GB RAM Onboard Intel Graphics Cheers Edited January 9, 2007 by onlineluver Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11339-howto-xp-osx-1044-1048-native-dual-boot/page/59/#findComment-271784 Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishmando2 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I installed 10.4.6 JAS on my Dell Inspiron 9300 and everything went well until it reboots post install. Then it hangs on this screen: I have an Intel Pentium M 770 Which is MMX, SSE and SSE2. I have 2gigs of DDR 2 and a NVidia GoForce 7800 GTX installed in it. As a test when I installed OS X, it just went with singe boot... I now have windows back on so I will use Acronis. Any ideas on what I need to do would be great. I am going to try to DL a better ISO right now.
