I've been at it for days straight and finally got stuck...is there any settings i need to change in the bios before install? I would suggest trying Hazzard 10.6.2 for the AMD machine. Your motherboard is almost the same as mine and should work ok. Try to install with the minimum number of kexts first to eliminate the issues. You will need to install a kernel (try mobdin first) and graphics nveNabler works for me but your card is pretty new, might have issues there. You don't need the amd patches if you install the kernel. Try that and let me know how it works, I'll try to dig up my instructions I have at home and see if I forgot anything.

Thanks downloading Snow Leopard 10.6.1-10.6.2 Intel AMD made by Hazard, this one right? Also I have an onboard GPU ATI Radeon 3300 if the gtx470 won't work. Will do what you say and report back. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a Radeon option on the installer but I can't vouch for how well it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
