Cryptiik Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Hi I recently installed iAtkos v7 (I checked MD5 – it’s all correct) via USB (as the computer has no DVD drive) on my extra computer (Intel Pentium 4 @ 2.80GHz and and integrated intel chipset of some kind (not sure how to check without an OS installed)) using ddmac to put the ISO on the USB. However after installation I (possibly because instead of watching online instructions I just did the norm and kept hitting next in the installation) was stuck in a reboot cycle. For hours I tried to look around the web to attempt to fix this (including changed busratio and cpus in boot parameters) however I couldn’t figure it out. After installing I decided to try and get up the installation again to see if I could fix things however whenever it opened up, the apple logo appeared and then it hung at the “light blue screen of death”. I heard the light blue screen of death can be to do with your graphics card (and was confused as installation opened before) so I figured that maybe installation installed some weird, wrong drivers that were screwing thing up and so I used gparted live cd to delete the current partition and make a new. Unfortunately after this I can still only get to the light blue screen on setup (after which it hangs and then the computer switches off). Please Help – I really can’t figure out how to fix this (As you may have been able to tell, I’m new to Hackintoshes), Thanks, Cryptiik Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/250597-problems-installing-iatkos-v7/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryptiik Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Installed iATKOS v5i instead and all seems to work fine with this version - unsure why v7 didn't work.
