andsteele Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hello everyone, I was hoping somebody could help me with this. I'm trying to get iPC 10.5.6 to boot on my PC, but it keeps crashing. I get these messages: If I try and install without the -V command, I see the Apple logo but and the spinning logo but it never boots, I just get a circle with a line in it. My PC Specs are: Asrock AM2NF3-VSTA AMD AM2 X2 3800+ 3GB Ram Nvidia 7300GT 512MB AGP 300GB IDE HDD Any help would be greatly appreciated. At the moment, my PC is still running Windows XP which as you know makes it pretty much useless.

gree Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 What DVD did you use to burn the iso? I'm getting the exact results as you and its pretty frustrating. I think it is one of these possible reasons: a) our hardware just doesn't support leopard osx something is wrong with the dvd/iso c) the dvd burner/reader doesn't function properly d) we are doing something wrong I think its a... edit: actually I'm wondering if there perhaps something wrong with our dvd drive?

To be honest, I think my computer just simply doesn't support Leopard. Ahh well,I still have my Macbook I guess. If I ever build a new computer, I'll make sure it's compatible. Thanks for the help anyway guys.
