StrongWind Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 First I had iPC version of Leopard some time, I was happy with it, but when I saw I can install retail version of Snow Leopard using EmpireEfi and myhack, I tried that and it worked. I installed it as I remember with no problems. This was few months ago. One day, like 2 weeks ago I turned off my hackintosh and the next day I saw progress bar at the start. It was strange why it appeared but I waited a little bit more, after progress bar dissapears at gray apple boot screen, the computer just turns off. I am not able to fix it, because I also don't know why is that happening. I thought about Disk repair in Disk utility so I tried to boot apple retail dvd with empire efi like I booted it when I first installed it few months ago. Another problem appears... When I booted the DVD (I also tried booting with -x, -v, -f, -x32, cpus=1 etc..) it booted fine, but after boot just gray screen appears with a mouse pointer and it just stops there. I can move it, when I try to move it changes from pointer to loading cursor and again, nothing happens after waiting for 1 hour. I tried to boot iPC again, it boots fine and then I can't move cursor. Now I have 3 problems, trying to fix any of them 2 weeks unsuccessful, everything worked before and I don't know what more I can try to fix that. BIOS settings are ok because I haven't changed them. If someone can help me that would be nice, because I really now don't know what to do. Thanks.

O and A Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hey I have same mobo. The only thing I can think of is maybe a hard drive failure or ram failure. Since you say you didn't change anything and its very weird you're not able to boot even with boot disk.
