success2be Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 During installation, what processor patch did you select to install? Make sure to only select Intel if you have Intel and only AMD if you have AMD. Same goes for other optional patches. If you don't know if you need it, don't select it during installation. The correct processor patch is required for successful boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandnaka Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Hey try to remove your Video card out, and if you have a diference video card use it!!! I see you have the nvidia 6800 card in there, I have the same problem too with that card, or you could reinstall with out load any driver for it, I did that and it boot up fine. I have a MSI NX6800 video card and if I chose to install the video driver it just give me the screen you have, if I just install with out loads anything except the fonts and the ATA, and Windows Log on it boot fine, Just try to reinstall chosing the 3 thing I mention!!!

victoria Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hi, i suffered from a very similar problem with my mac installation, i was saved from an unpredicted site http://www.fixya.com/support/t909723-os_10_4_8_mac_start (This was what ssaved me) They have quite good solutions, i think it's worth a shot.
