This is my pc config :

 

athlon xp1700+ (SSE2 compliant)

256 mbyte ram (will expand in the future ..)

radeon 7000 64 mbyte vram

windows xp pro

 

vmware 5.x with 128 mbyte of ram assigned .....

 

mac os x tiger dvd install iso image (patched)

 

 

1) launching vmware and using the iso image as boot cd device ....

 

2) after a few seconds the grey apple screen appears but after that it hangs forever ....

 

If I reboot the virtual machine and press F8 when darwin asks me for options, and then insert the string "-v" followed by RETURN key, mac os x starts loading kernel and after 10 seconds the screen goes garbage :-(

 

What can i do ?

AMD Athlon XP CPU's dont support SSE2 or SSE3 unfortunately mate, so you're not going to get it to work!
