When it starts to countdown (it says press any key to install OSX), pres the options button (ik think its F8, but i don't really rember, but it will tell you witch one it is). Thene, type "-v" (without quotes ofcourse) and press enter. Then you willl probably see what the error is.

 

Also, a non working installer in most cases doens't really mean that OSX won't work on you PC. It just means that the installer himself is causing conlicts. Usually, it works whene you install it on an external HD from a computer wich can handel the installer, then run OSX from there and remove the files that are causing conflicts, and then copy the contents of that external harddrive to your computers. It did this for a lot of people who are saving for a real mac and who's laptops had that problem :lol:
