sert Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Hey. First of all I can install OSX 10.4.6 no problem on my PC but when I go to boot it I get a quickly scrolling list of drivers being loaded then the screen goes black and the computer restarts getting me nowhere. Second problem is when I insert my boot disk into my laptop the installer boots up but all I get is the blue background of the installation menu, no cursor, no windows, nothing. But the weird thing about this is the first time I inserted the disk the whole thing loaded fine, but I didn't install as I was just testing the disk. All subsequent attempts to boot the disk give the same problem. I made a second boot disk incase there was an issue with the disk itself, but the same deal. Any help on either of these matters would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/39573-two-problems/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

vashpan Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 (edited) Ad 1. I have the same problem ( the first one ) with 10.4.8 install dvd and then with normal OS X ! ( Proper boot is random, after some restarts ) Boot options have nothing to do with that, system reboot just after load kexts ( cached or uncached ) I don't know what is going on, 10.4.7 booting without problems. Everything else working like a charm ! Specs: AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice Core 512 MB DDR GF 7300 GT VIA K8T890 chipset semthex 8.8.1 Kernel, build: Sat Dec 9 22:18:27 2006 *** Any ideas about that ? Maybe someone have something similar ?
