"Blue Screen" when starting OSx86 Snow Leopard

[BlackLotus89]

I installed Snow Leopard on my Dell Vostro Laptop.At the end of the boot I get the usual blue screen which normally leads to the login prompt but all I get is this blue screen and from time to time some flickering.

My graphic card is a Geforce 9300M GS.Hopefully I didn't screw up the setup.

Savemode works fine.

Does anyone have any experience on this error and can it be traced back to my graphic card?Or is it another service that does not start as it should?

get dsdt and il see if its _DOD .. needs rearrangement of display .

also use chameleon2 rc5 with GraphicsEnabler .. goto dsdt section.. auto-patcher sticky. read first post.

if that dont fix it. .then u need a mod in dsdt.

At the beginning before it boots to osx

 

try

 

GraphicsEnabler=yes

PCIRoot=1

 

if that doesnt work try

 

GraphicsEnabler=yes and PciRoot=0

 

If any of these combos work you should go in your boot.plist and add them like so

 

 

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>PciRoot</key>

<string>1</string>

 

or

 

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>PciRoot</key>

<string>0</string>

 

On my mobo and card I personally have to use

 

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>PciRoot</key>

<string>0</string>

 

check my sig for my mobo and chipset
