Hi :wacko:,

I have just used iatkos v7 to install osx on my system, everything works great except after booting, i will get a light blue screen and it will be stuck there, sometimes i will have a curser, sometimes i won't, from what i can find this issue is caused by the graphics card, im using a xfx 1GB ati HD4870 and i selected the atiHD drivers when i installed, if i boot into safe mode everything works fine, i have my native resolution of 1080p but the only issue i have then is i have no audio due to booting into safe mode

 

if anyone could help I would be totally thankful

Thought I would just update this as I got it working and if anyone comes across this in the future then maybe my solution will help them, sorry for bumping this but so many times I have found a thread with a problem im having and the OP never came back and updated it

 

my system specs are

 

phenom II 965

 

8GB ddr3 ram

 

xfx hd4870 1 GB

 

motherboard: asus M4A79T

 

i think thats everything important

 

anyway i fixed it by just adding 'maxmem=3072' by pressing f8 before i boot, now everything works ;)
