Princess_Bubblegum Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Sometimes certain boot loaders don't work for me for reasons I don't fully comprehend. Have you tried using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]? It does an good job of getting my larger laptop to boot the retail Snow Leopard CD. Your processor should be ok, and it's listed as working on the OSx86 wiki, but I'm not sure about your mother board.

Princess_Bubblegum Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Hmm, just googling around, it seems like some people have had moderate success with that board. What error does it give you if you try booting with -v? or does it just crash completely?
