HI, I have a HP Compaq Laptop and am trying to install Hazard Snow Leopard 10.6.3 from a Hazard disc, It is a DVD-R. I am not using a boot loader because when i press f8 I can still do boot flags, I have tried many but I always get to Still waiting for root device. There is no option in my BIOS for CD or HDD options.. I am running Windows 7. Should I try and enable AHCI on that?

 

I could try using a boot loader.. IDK

 

Thanks!

 

Specs: AMD Turion x64 dual core 1.9Ghz (I can overclock to about 2.2ghz) but cooling...

Says Designed for Windows XP but I have 7 on it now and works very good

2GB RAM, Upgrade able I might geet 2x2gb to get 4gb of ram. Says 1.87GB usable

AMD Radeon X1200 series with 128mb VRAM Shares 130mb or something with my main RAM to get a little bit more.

As again it's a laptop so I can't really do anything hardware based. I have seen that people have managed to install Leopard on my laptop model so if Snow is going too far could someone recommend me a Leopard distro?

The BIOS DOES NOT have any option whatsoever to do with AHCI. I have checked and checked. But the HP website says that it should have an option for native sata mode if you have XP on it and I have 7.

 

What I said is should I try and enable the AHCI DRIVER on windows 7?

 

Thanks.
