ratiocinate Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Hi everyone, I installed 10.4.6 (patched up from 10.4.4) on my HP Pavilion dv6000, but I mistakenly had it update itself through Apple, and subsequently it failed to work. I tried re-installing the OS by the same procedure several times, with varying degrees of (un)success. A few times it would give me (what I assume is) the Welcome to OS X Tiger screen, but with mangled graphics (there were lots of angular polygons in varying shades of blue and grey; no text was discernable). Afterwards, I tried to erase the partition and start over clean, but now when using NTLDR (as I had before) and selecting the option that pointed to chain0, the NTLDR boot menu just reloads itself. Any ideas? Thanks. --Ratiocinate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
