Hey just got a new comp after getting annoyed at the crappy hardware on my laptop, but now im having troubles getting this ideneb 1.6/ kalyway dvd working they both refuse to load ideneb goes a bit futher than the kalyway dvd before it gives me the grey apple screen with a stop sign but i was wondering if some one could personaly help me as ive scrolled through pages and pages of this forum trying to find a solution just to find blank and empty thread.

 

i think the problem either resides either in my chipset which is an Nforce 630a or in the fact that im only using sata connections.

 

the error message im getting on start up isnt amazingly usefull but when it trys to load the appleNforceata it says found 0

still waiting for root device

 

any help here would be hot you loverly peeps cheer

NVidia chipset and AMD CPU - you are making things very difficult for yourself.

 

If you buy a new rig - intel ICH10 chipset (p45) - Intel CPU Core 2 or newer (not pentium dual core.) - AHCI (NOT IDE.) - and try to find a motherboard with a well documented (in the hack world.) NIC and audio codec .. Use the OSx86 Wiki !

 

a core 2 duo and motherboard with ICH10 shouldn't set you back too much as it's now old stock!

 

Your 9500 GT GPU should work fine.
