Hey everyone,

 

I have a blank hard drive and want to install 10.6.3. I bought the retail version of the OS and am having a real tough time getting it to install. I DO NOT have an existing mac OS on this drive.

 

This is what I am doing...

 

Booting with Empire EFI disk;

 

Getting these prompts...

 

disk0s3: I/O error

SAM multimedia: read or write failed, sense_key=0x03, ASC=0x10, ASCQ=0x90

 

after several lines of this the screen will end in this meesage...

 

System uptime in Nanoseconds: ?????

 

After that the screen will stay like that, MAC os installation screen never comes on...

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!! This is taking over my life!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

 

 

My Mobo is a gigabyte x48 ds4

My video card is a ati 4850
