Hi, I have built a new computer, with specific parts that have been mentioned as compatible in the wiki. This is for my moms computer and I cant install.

 

I'm using iPC 10.5.6. I get a blinking cursor when the computer goes to the DVD, for a few seconds its still blinking then goes to the HD and to windows. My plan is to wipe of windows and just have Mac there.

 

i have installed iPC on my other hackintosh successfully.

 

Also, I have been able to boot to other boot DVDs that I have made (Windows 7, MS DOS) so It appears that I do make boot discs properly.

 

My specs for this computer are :

Intel Celeron 1.8GHZ

ECS G31T-M(1.0) LGA 775 Intel G31 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

 

Any input would be great.

 

Thanks,

Josh

More Info.

 

I tried installing windows 7 and that worked. Now there is no blinking cursor at startup.

 

There is still no darwin prompt to boot from the iPC DVD. When i choose to boot to the DVD, its a black screen and then goes right to windows 7. HMMmm.

 

Thanks,

Josh
