king2178 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I am downloading the iso file to test it on a P4 dell dimension. Can you be more specific on the steps you took through installation, and any selection during install? That would be very helpful. Thank you!!

rw3 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I'm thinking my issue is having a GTX 285 in my system. I don't believe that OS X has the ability to recognize this card. I'll try it with a 7300 LE that I have laying around.

yanknight Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Use This Settings iATKOS v5i Main System PC EFI V9 AppleDecrypt (added SMBIOS-EFI) 9.5.0 Kernel Voodoo Stock ACPI Modified Disabler.Kext ATI SATA/IDE > Intel SATA NTFS-3G Hi Benji I trying to install iAtkos v5i on my XPS 420 (Q9550) I follow the setup like u did. (except i chose the nextwork driver also) But installation is stop when it nearly finish. I try several time and it stop at the same place. (like around 90% of installation) Is it the DVD Disc error (i burn iAtkos with 8x speed) or the installation error. Your help will be appreciated.
