Any help would be helpful thanks ! Hello fellow AMD user! Getting OS X on AMD may be a little trickier, I'm still going at it, But for the most part ModCD is the best way to go. It automatically detects your system and puts in every thing that you need. So check out these tutorials and see if they help: http://www.osx86.net/desktops/9746-guide-os-x-10-6-amd.html http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=253767 PM me if it works. P.S. Just a hint, if you keep getting kernel panic every time you get into the snow leopard install screen, just type -force64 while hovering over the install DVD when using ModCD at the telephone screen.
