Erukian Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Here's my problems, i'll be as brief as I can. With the install when it said select a drive to install OSX to, there was nothing there, so i went into Disk Utility and Erased the partition i formatted with id=af in the windows DiskPart utility. Then it popped up and the install continued. The only other problem I have with the installation is that when it does the countdown at the very end to restart it stalls afterwards and has a spinning black circle (not a pinwheel). So I just hit the restart button on my computer case. When it boots for the first time, it seems to be detecting hardware, then it starts the GUI interface, but all I see is a black screen with my mouse (that moves around). I tried hitting all sorts of combo's of keys, nothing. Here's my system. Opteron 148 (with sse3) Nforce4 mobo IDE drives no usb mouse/keyboard, all PS2 one monitor X1600XT video card Marvell Ethernet If anyone has any ideas, i'd love to hear em Thanks, Joe Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/29245-black-screen-w-mouse/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erukian Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Oh, and when I customized the install during setup. I selected AMD SSE3, the AMD option right above AMD SSE2, and the 10.4.6 update. that's all. I've also tried using both monitor outputs off my video card. -Joe Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/29245-black-screen-w-mouse/#findComment-200905 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gthlm Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 You need the borisbadenov drivers from here. If your mobo has onboard video use that to boot and install the drivers.
