JoSe7en Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Hi everyone, this is my first topic and I would like some help. I've been messing with hackintosh with almost two years or so, have been succesfull at installing on a Del Inspiron 1720 and a dual core intel PC. I recently assembled a new machine with the following specs: Mobo: Asrock 870 Extreme3 CPU: AMD Phenom II 1055T GPU: Radeon HD5770 RAM: 4GB HyperX DDR3 1600Mhz HDD1: Crucial C300 64Gb (Windows7) HDD2: Samsung Spinpoint F3 1T (Storage) HDD3: Seagate 250Gb (for hackintosh experiments) Now, I've already tried to install Snow Leopard with dozens of boot CD's and different methodes but none seem to work. I can't even get to the installer.. The only way I once did was installing Leopard on a 2,5" drive that was in my laptop, then installing Snow Leopard on the other drive, then putting that drive in an external enclosure, then connecting it to my PC and trying to boot. And after that installing to my internal drive. This worked after MUCH trial and error, and the boot just isn't stable, can't even boot anymore now. It's either waiting for root device, or getting stuck at the USBF, or some other random thing.. So my main question, for the people with the same motherboard, how have you managed to do a clean install and how have you mantained a stable booting system? .. Any help is appreciated Thanks Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/249189-need-help-with-snow-leopard-on-asrock-870-extreme3/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
