AshUK Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Hey all, I'm new to this forum. Anyways I built myself a Core i7 system over the weekend, it's based on the GA-EX58-Extreme motherboard but after installing iDeneb, whenever it tries to load, after the wait 5 seconds boot option the system restarts itself? Is this just incompatibility with i7 systems? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/137841-core-i7-support/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

HengenJL Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 AshUK, could you keep us all informed of your progress with the Retail Disc hack your going to be attempting? and what if anything extra you had to do to get the Retail Disc to work. the reason I ask is that I should know by this Friday whether or not I'm going to go with a Core i7 chip in my new desktop and really really want to try this machine as a Hackintosh. Thanks!! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/137841-core-i7-support/#findComment-976680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
