ArisingFlame Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I have three different versions of OSX I have been trying to install in hopes that ONE will work... No avail. Now, I know AMD chipsets are more difficult from the beginning, and I get that, butI've never had these troubles with an AMD before. I have successfully installed OSX on a different computer before (before a hard drive failure of the century), and I still have the DVD from that, but that doesn't work either. The three DVD's I have are as follows; 10.4.8 JaS 10.4.10 Kalyway 10.5.2 Leo4AllV3 All of which are stated as AMD compatible... Any clues at all? Need more specifics on the hardware? Help would be greatly appreciated... This is something I'm trying to put together for my girlfriend. Board: MSI MS-6590 2.0 Prosessor: 1.15 gigahertz AMD Athlon XP 128 kilobyte primary memory cache 512 kilobyte secondary memory cache Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 All Drive Information: 16X8 DVD DUAL [CD-ROM drive] ARTEC WRR-52Z [CD-ROM drive] WDC WD1200JB-00DUA3 [Hard drive] -- drive 0 WDC WD2500KS-00MJB0 [Hard drive] -- drive 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitninja Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Probably a good choice to put your hardware info in your sig...people will flame you if you don't have it available if you ask for help. Hope that saves you from some pain later on That's actually the first thing we need to figure this out is your hardware info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitninja Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Not particularly...what exactly is the problem that you're experiencing? Installer DVD not booting, won't boot after installing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArisingFlame Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 No matter how I try to install (-v, -x, -s, ect.) It will go for a few seconds and then reboot. No error messages or anything of the sort... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
