hanzpogz Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Hi Guys, I'm trying to install iAtkos v7 on my Compaq Presario CQ 40-107 au. i was able to pass the boot stage but when the apple icon appears and the loading phase shows up it got stuck for 30 mins. I've tried to search for an article about installing it using Compaq but i never found one. Here's my Laptop Specs: Motherboard: Compal 30FE AMD chipset 780G Processor: AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core QL-60 1900 Mhz Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD 3200 256mb Memory: 4 Gb DDR2 667 HDD: Samsung HM160 HI 160Gb Right now my computer is running in Vista Ultimate 32 bit. i have 4 partitions and the 4th one is currently unallocated. Thanks guys and your help will be really appreciated. I really love this os Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/180385-iatkos-on-compaq-presario-cq40/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
