Skipper77 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Installed 10.5.2 with no Problems... But Combo Update to 10.5.6 Killed my PC .. RE-Install Time? I Got everything working on my 1st install of 10.5.2 DVD everything worked!!! I was happy! However I clicked on the Software update and clicked everything that needed updating...including an update called combo update to 10.5.6 .... everything seem to be updating intell it got to the combo update, it got to about 15% and rebooted the computer... when the computer rebooted a screen came up and and says something like ... there's an error you need to restart your computer, So I did and it just keeps saying that every time I try to get to the desktop.. So here's my question... what did I do wrong ?

Beerkex'd Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 If you look around everybody is saying not to update to 10.5.6 using software update. Even if youy're on a real mac.

Beerkex'd Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Download the combo update from Apple manually and then dive in to the "10.5.6 released" thread to see how everybody else did it.
