dannyvdz Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 A while ago I bought myself a macbook pro and I love it. My regular pc (which has better hardware specs and much more HD space) got into neglection untill I heard of mac os X being able to boot on a intel pc. Unfortunately after days and days of searching and trying several disks I can't get it to work. I've also tried some optional kernel's and bootloaders. I am using the cpus=1 command which makes it possible to install mac os x and when booting it shows the circle animation (without cpus=1 just the apple shows up). My specs are: Asrock p45r2000-wifi Intel q9550 (quadcore @2.83 GHZ) 8 GB ddr3 (Corsair Dominator I believe) Club 3d (Ati) HD4850. Do and of you have an idea what my problem could be? The hardware should be able to run it. If i check CPU-Z it says i can use the SSE 2, 3 and even 4.1. I would appreciate it if you could help me out with my problem or even if you would just point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!

Im using a different mobo yet the same processor. I had the same trouble as you and the only solution was to disable the LAN in BIOS. After that all was fine I went the retail install using Boot 123.
