nick1122 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Hey, new to all this and just can't get it to work I'm trying to follow this guide: http://menoob.com/hackintosh/hackintosh-in...il-dvd-on-a-pc/ but when I replace the boot-132 cd with a retail 10.5.1 leopard disc, it starts to load, the white screen with the apple logo comes up and the spinny things starts to spin. After a bit, a mouse cursor appears on the screen, but the spinny thing just stops and nothing else happens. When I run it in verbose mode, it stops at GFX0: match category ioframebuffer exists Anyone know how I progress past this point? Specs: Core 2 Duo T7300 2.0GHz Intel GM965 chipset x3100 integrated video card 4gb of ram NTFS formatted, empty 160GB harddrive Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/197168-install-hangs-with-leopard-retail-boot-132/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick1122 Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 From what cpu-z tells me, its an intel GM965 chipset with a intel 82801HBM (ICH8-ME) Southbridge. Its a sony vaio VGN-FZ150E. I'll try out the multicore support later tonight, thanks.

rajas Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 look at: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page and see what version is reported working for your laptop. if your specific model is not listed, try to see what other models use the same motherboard, if any, and then go from there.
