ilovepizzas Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Hello hope someone can help out here, I have a acer travelmate 3273WXMI and cant for the life of me install any hackintosh on this machine, I have downloaded 3 types of hackintosh and allready have two old versions from before and all of them bring the same symptoms when trying to install. The hackintoshs i have are 1, iDeneb_v1.5.1_1057 2, iAtkos_2.0i_BS_Release 3, Kalyway_10.5.2_DVD_Intel_Amd 4, uphuck not sure the release and an older kallyway not sure on the release none of them work when trying to install on the acer, I get the boot loader part where u press f8, then you can select diffrent modes like -s or -v etc. Once i exit this section the screen goes black and thats it, I can go no futher no matter what OS or options i use. I have a sony laptop and all OS work perfectly no problems but would like to install on the acer, cos the sony machine not really mine lol I dont want to sound picky here but i would love to just use an external HDD to boot the OS because i have allready gone through about 30-40 dvds trying different setups (skint student excuse here lol) but as always none of them work on the acer so an external HDD is a must to boot the system. The acer does have external boot options, and is set to first boot device. I all ready have an original macbook pro so can use that to make the boot devices or mods I also have a pc but i think most of the stuff could be done on the mac please please be nice iam kinda noob here mabye someone can point me to another instance of a hackintosh that might work for the acer or a specific tut that can get this badboy running i did a quick search but nout for acer travelmate 3273WXMI thanks again in advance hope i have not missed anything, thanks thanks :D Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/224207-solved-acer-travelmate-hackintosh-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
