CarlDx Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 This is the spec of my computer: -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ -ASUS P5N-D Nvidia nForce 750i SLI -Intel Core 2 Quad CPU (Q6600) 2.40GHz Stock OCZ Gold -2 x 2GB (4GB total) 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX-285 Hitachi 160GB Sata Drive, DVDRW-Lite-ON -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ I have the iso: iATKOS (s3 v2) Well, boot from the cd, then press any key and then goes to the screen with the apple and the loading animation, it takes a while. Then an icon appears over the apple like this (/) and remain stopped, until I can hear the hard drive powers down and goes no further. then probed with the commands:-x-v busratio = 20. and then starts to load some files (kext) after finished loading stops and much time standing in a line that says: appleNForceATA: Nvidia nForce MCP 51 ...... then out: "Still Waiting for root device" and is repeated several times .. and it does nothing more ... I did a screen capture which is stopped CarlDx.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buoo Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Should be a wrong SATA controller mode set in the BIOS. Try setting from SATA to AHCI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlDx Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) that option did not appear in the BIOS settings, I made some screenshots ... Sorry man I'm new in this Edit: I was seaching on google to find why asus P5N-D doesn't appear this option in Bios settings and is because the P5N-D has no AHCI support.
