imiraj Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Try removing RAM stick/s till you have 4 GB, that should work. After install, add the stick/s back on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imiraj Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 what are you using to boot into the install disc? Try some other ones. I've used [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] which works flawlessly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
