srw985 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Hi, I've never tried installing Mac OS X on a PC before, but yesterday I downloaded iDeneb 10.5.6 and installed that on my PC, which is a Medion 8830. Intel E2200 2.2Ghz Core 2 Duo Custom MSI motherboard with nForce chipset, including nForce SATA and Ethernet. First I installed with no patches, and the system failed to boot. The install completed fine, however when I tried to load up OS X I just got a white (or cream?) screen with an Apple logo, and it never moved past this. Tried again with the right drivers and patches for nForce selected, same result. Tried again with some more patches a google search hinted at, same result but now had a small spinning "loading" thing below the logo. Still never did anything. I did make sure to properly format the partition between installs. Kalyway DVD I can't get to load, and I'm downloading the latest iAtkos at the moment. Anyone offer me any suggestions to get iDeneb working though?
