macrovers Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 HI friends this is my first post here. I have read many guides about getting osx installed in a PC. But i have a very bizarre issue. My PC ( very old one ) System Manufacturer: HP-Pavilion System Model: GS166AA-ACJ a6230in BIOS: Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG Processor: Intel® Pentium® Dual CPU E2140 @ 1.60GHz (2 CPUs), ~1.6GHz Memory: 2560MB RAM MOBO : asus p5lp-le. The updates i made on my pc were - 1) RAM - increased from 1 GB to 2.5 GB. 2) GPU - Asus ENGTS450/DI/1GDDR5 ( earlier it was onboard intel 945G ) I have earlier installed Snow Leopard, but couldnt figure out Ethernet, audio etc ( some basic ), I used without internet for sometime again went to windows. My problem--- Before upgrading the GPU to ENGTS 450 i was able to do installation with distros and SL org copy. But now i again i wanted to install LIon, so i wanted to check iatkos l2, If installation was a failure- i would have been satisfied but i can't even get to the installation screen, i downloaded iatkos l2 and i changed the bios setting to SATA controller to AHCI , that is the only change i can do with my stupid MOBO. What i am getting is that cd boot init Cd..sectors verifying ( sorry i couldn't even note it down, it goes very fast 2 or 3 seconds ) ......... ......... again pc restarts and the same process is looping over and over, I have tried Niresh lion too , but with same result.......the cd boot thing is looping again and again. I have tried 4 different DVD brands, various Burn speed x2,x4......20-25 DVD's but no use i couldn't get past the looping sequence. . Dont consider me a troll, its just a kind request if anybody could help me ( not to install osx) atleast i could learn what the problem is ?
