First of all hello everyone!

 

Okay so I'm a noob to the whole hackintosh world but I'm looking into putting osx snow leopard on my pc. I have tried one boot disk but got the error: Still waiting for root device while trying to load the disc to get to the osx installer maybe I'm doing something wrong?

 

Im wanting to dual boot with windows 7. I understand there are different flavors of the install discs do I need to try those or am I able to build a custom one for my pc?

 

Anyhow heres my setup:

 

ELITEGROUP P4M900T-M2 Motherboard

 

Intel Pentium D 2.8GHz CPU

 

1GB DDR2 RAM

 

ATI Radeon X1650 Series Pro 512Mb

 

Seagate 160GB SATA HDD

 

Lite- On Dual Layer DVDRW SATA

 

Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter

 

VIA Rhine II Compatible Ethernet Adapter

 

 

I have read around and cant find a simple answer to installing under these specs and how i would go about it. If anybody could help it would be appreciated because I'm kinda running around in the dark lol.

 

Thanks

In first you should read this

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=236949

 

Did you check HCL (hardware compatibility list)?

Go google... Why you expect anyone do it for you. I was reading for few months to learn how to install OSx on my pc. Read forums, learn how it works, you'll find some ideas what to try... and probably you're gonna fail several times.

Than come here with your spec. say i tried all this and it didn't work (or it's worked), can you help me... don't be lazy :)
