zach.splr Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I would like to know if Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion would be compatible with my laptop? My laptop is an Asus G73JW. Here is the specs: 1st Gen I7 core processor 8GB memory DDR3 Nvidia 460M Video Card 500GB Hardrive Bluetooth 2.1? Wireless 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz compatible Micro SD card reader Standard DvD/Cd reader Usb 3.0 single port Some 2.0 usb ports I searched for G73jw and found no results therefore I am making this post. If I missed something please educate me. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/283428-asus-g73jw-laptop/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach.splr Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Today I booted with i boot 3.3.0 with the verbose mode and the boot got stuck when trying to load Mac os x 10.6. I have attached a picture of this: http://postimage.org/image/93v43stmh/ Any suggestions on what might be causing this?

zach.splr Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 So I found on this forum this same particular problem. The link is http://www.osx86.net/10-7-lion/14873-need-help-freeze-when-just-solve-error-pci-configuration-begin.html I followed this by first using these switches at the i boot menu with mac 10.6: -v -x npci=0x2000 pci=off busratio=20. Here is the link to what my outcome looked like: http://postimage.org/image/a9fv4f2zz/ . I then rebooted and tried the switches: -v -x npci=0x3000 pci=off. I got the exact same screen. I can record this booting if requested. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/283428-asus-g73jw-laptop/#findComment-1859059 Share on other sites More sharing options...
