Rifts Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Alright so I installed 10.4.8 and everything worked fine, installation was smooth and easy. All I had to do was tweak my ethear net card driver. anyway I realized I dont need 10.4.8 I actually need 10.5.5 which I then obtained legally of course and I wiped 10.4.8 out and popped in my 10.5.5 dvd everything ran perfect I customized the installation with my video driver and what not.. at the end I get a HUGE green check mark and it says successfully installed, needs to reboot. Well when it reboots it flashes the apple screen for a second then just reboots and will just keep doing this loop. HELP ive search and search but have no idea what to do. This is my second time installing I thought maybe it was just a problem with how I customized the set up but I dont want to keep doing this over and over again, It can't be good for my computer? thanks a lot Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/152628-this-doesnt-make-sense/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rifts Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yeah I tried that and it didn't work so I reinstalled the os again but used different customized options and this time the reboot loop stopped but instead it gets to the apple screen and then a little Box with a line through it pops over the apple and that's all. Do I HAVE to customize the installation? If I just leave the video and stuff boxes blank are there defult drivers and stuff that will install?
