Dell Dimension 4600 P4 2.4ghz

 

iDeneb 10.5.5, Voodoo kernel.

 

I've tried both Toast 8 and 9. Both work great on my "real" Mac at work, but neither work on my Hackintosh.

 

Both versions seem like they try to open, but then quit immediately before the Toast window comes up, with no error messages given.

 

Any one else have this problem??

 

Any other disc burning, duplicating utilities that you recommend?

You can use Liquid CD. We have used it at work since Toast got so piggy. I've also used the os x burn folder in the finder which works fine too. No need for Toast really anymore. If I need to back up a DVD movie that I rented for example, I just use Handbrake to copy it to an avi file.

I believe thats the reason as well. I have two almost identical installations(iatkos 1.5.5), one desktop with qe/ci where toast works and one laptop without qe/ci where it doesnt. I read somewhere that it might be the qt divx component, but toast crushes before asking whether to install it or not so its not that.

Im being kinda redundant but QE/CI is probably your issue. Also place your specs in your signature.

Couldn't agree more about the pork factor of Toast. Seemed to go downhill after Roxio took it over.

 

LiquidCD rocks. Thanks for the referral. I can't believe I haven't used it yet. Might not need Toast at all now.

 

I still might try to fix the Toast issue just out of curiosity. I'll check the QE/CI thing when I get home.

I won't say the QE IS the problem, it should be the first thing to fix. The MX440 may be the issue - You can try searching the forums. According to the HCL - (http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.5.2#nVidia) it looks like QE may not be supported.

 

(Don't have any experience with that card though.)

I have another video card around here somewhere that I might try. Quitting Toast cold turkey sounds like the easiest solution :(

 

Getting QE/CI supported or replacing it with a card that will allow to get it supported would be a good idea. There is a great deal of software that will not even install without this and some that will install but will crash on startup. For example some Adobe products, especially CS3 Applications, will install but will crash on startup. Reviewing the Crash Log will show that it crashed a threads related to drawing the actually interface. You don't need a fancy graphics card. Just one that you can get OSX to support.
