BoBowan Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I have been trying to get Leopard 10.5.2 installed on my T40 laptop. Installation is fine but when the computer restarts I get gray background with apple in the middle and circle on the bottom. Nothing happens just the circle keeps spinning. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue to make it boot into the MAC Desktop?

gazepo Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 No my friend, in able to see where the problem is you need -v. I think you forgot to install a chipset driver.

I got it to work by waiting for 10 min. The boot time is about 5 min but after that everything works fine. i am trying to install wireless driver for Intel 2200B/G any idea?
