scott74 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I've been trying to install OSX Leopard in my home computer , one is a Hp Pavillion DV900 and the other is a Dell Dimension 3100 During the installation in teh Dimension 3100 everything seems ok until I have to choose the installation drives, at this point I go to the disks utility and select my primary partition that I reserved for OSX but after eraseit (in mac format) there is no possible way to mount the drive, and when I come back to the install menu the drive is just not there, is like the PC recognize it but does not like to install the system in there. In the Pavillion is even worse, there is no drives at all, I can only see the DVD with the installation disk. I tried 4 versions of the OSX and they have all the same error: iATKOS_5i, iDeneb_v1.4_OSx86_ISO, iPC_OSx86_10_5_6_Universal_PPF5_Final and Kalyway_10.5.2_DVD_Intel_Amd . I'm sure I missing something, but what ?

So The problem is hardware incompatibility ? may be but I've seen lots of YouTube videos showing my PC and my laptop properly working with the OSX. Thanks anyway, another suggestion ?
