Adio Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Hi there guys! Can somebody help me with this stupid think i have? I tried to install a "hacked" version of Tiger on my Pc laptop compaq presario v3016 but the instalation does not find any HDD's to install on. I have the same problem if I try to install another version of Windows...i think it;'s something like a protection from compaq that i have to get rid of... Can anybody help me with this?

boon4376 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 IS this the first time you've tried installing OS X86? When in the installer, open up in the menu "utilities" -> "disk utility" and format a portion of the disk so that the installer can recognize it. If you cant get this far, then the problem is over my head. I have a V3000 and will test it to see if it works.

debauchery1st Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 same problem with the Pavilion dv6119. I think it may have something to do with the sata hd, but I find it a little strange that vmware doesn't show the hd either. this problem has baffled me ever since I purchased this notebook. check my post for a possible solution: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?act...&pid=281495 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/28520-os-x-on-a-compaq-v3000/#findComment-281883 Share on other sites More sharing options...
