toyotascionxd Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I have this setup 1. Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3 2. Core I5-750 intel processor (not overclocked) 3. Microsoft Comfort Keyboard and mouse 5000 (wireless) 4. Sapphire ATI HD 4670 1GB DDR3 5. 4GB GSkills DDR3 ram 6. Seagate 1.5 TB I have tried every installer from empire EFI to [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]. I always get kernel errors and never get to the part where I can install the software. The language screen does not come up. I typed -x already and it does not do anyting. I followed all the settings needed for my cmos settings. I also have a retail dvd snow leopard 10.6.3 upgrade dvd. I don't know what's causing this thing. Is my graphic card not compatible with hackintosh? I've decided to give up and just reinstall windows 7.

my2cents Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Have you tried arch=i386 I have not worked with your set up, but this avoids most crashes for me on Atom set ups that I toy with. You could also try arch=i386 -x Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235052-hackintosh-installation-failure/#findComment-1568769 Share on other sites More sharing options...

toyotascionxd Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 I've already tried everything you guys said. Thanks anyway. The problem could be the video card. I just plan to buy a used macbook pro next year thanks.

slann303 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Don't want to dig up old posts, but I might help you out if you still want to put that beautiful OS on your (probably) Windows infested PC. But first let me ask you: did you try to boot with an USB stick? I had the same problem like you had when I wanted to install SL and also Lion. Every bootloader that I put on a USB stick caused a KP. I then simply used a BootCD I found on the internet (from Kakewalk for RC4 and from someone else, can't remember who, for RC5) and voila, I could boot and install without a KP. If you still have your PC lying around and want to install OS X on it, just find a preconfigured BootCD with chameleon (minimum RC5 v760 for Lion). Good luck!
