rikki1990 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Hello gurus, I have downloaded Leopard OSX by brazilmac. I am trying to install it on my Dell Inspiron E1505. But I could not install it. It does not want to install on any of my hard drives. I tried both on a completely empty hard drive as well as with XP media center installed on the C:\ drive. When i get to the screen where it asks to select the media to install the OS on, my hard drives show up with a red "X" on them and a message at the bottom stating that it does not recognise the media( something like that). So, does Leopard not install on an NTFS format? Or is there something i am missing? Any inputs are greatly appreciated. I am new to Mac..so please pardon my ignorance. Thanks in advance Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/165476-help-me-pleeez/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
