LightyKD Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 HELP! I have tried 2 different copies of Leopard and none of them are working correctly. XxX X86 10.5.6 Leopard Installer - Gives me a complete install but freezes on the white screen with grey apple. -If I try to change the configuration by chosing any of the "extras" to install, I get a message during installation, telling me that the data is not found. JaS 10.5.6 AMD/Intel SSe2 & SSe3 Server/Client Insteller - The installation NEVER finishes. - I keep getting this message: "The installer coild not validate the contents of the 'Base System' package. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. - Also will not let me change the install configuration. NOTE: JaS 10.4.8 AMD/Intel installer works perfectly on my system. Here are my specs ---------------------- abit LG-95Z motherboard (3 GHz) CPU -LGA775 socket for Intel -Pentium Dual-Core/Pentium D/Pentium 4/ Celeron D processor with 800 MHz FSB -Supports Intel Hyper-Threading technology RAM -1gb Graphics - Nvidia GeForce FX 5500 Chipset -Intel 945GZ / ICH7 ...Should I try a different installer disc? I figured, since the JaS installer for 10.4.8 worked that the JaS installer for 10.5.6 would also work. I still have that disc image ready just in case someone thinks I should burn another copy. Which installer is reccomended for my setup? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/174614-leopard-install-help-please/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickRand Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Have you tried LawlessPPC 10.5.4? I jsut installed that on a GA-MA78g-DS3HP with a SB700/780g chipset. worked beautifuly. Are you installing on/from sata or pata? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/174614-leopard-install-help-please/#findComment-1199018 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightyKD Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 I'm trying to install to a IDE hard drive. I just dont have the money to run out and pick up a SATA drive. Last night I decided to try and install 10.4.8 then use the XxX OS X86 10.5.6 disc as a updater and the latter part did not work. It has to have been at least 20 tries over the past two days and I'm drawing blanks. Sure I could go back to using Tiger but that defeats the purpose of trying to get Leopard onto my system. I just dont know what to do anymore. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/174614-leopard-install-help-please/#findComment-1199297 Share on other sites More sharing options...
