JaE-V Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Having a big problem after my installation! The install goes fine as usual. Then once the process is completed i hit restart and it just hangs at the black screen that says "Continuing and Mach Reboot" and sits there! So i manually restart then im getting disk boot failure. Im really bummerd out. Anyone know how i can continue with my installation? My system: Nforce 680i Core2Duo E6400 Nvidia 7300gs which im using, and 8800gts 640mb 250gb ide PATA Drive on Master only 128gb recognized. 16x DVD burner on slave ide 2gb ddr2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54854-after-1049-install-failing-reboot/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macshiba Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 It's because of your nForce Chipset. Same problem on another thread and that was the problem. And there is an edit button so you don't have to post 3 times.

Macshiba Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 lol dont be a {censored} Hah, okay sorry. But I looked in the other thread you posted where I did as well and you said your nForce works up to 10.4.7, so maybe that's not the problem. But I have seen that 10.4.8 and up are having tons of problems on nForce chips Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54854-after-1049-install-failing-reboot/#findComment-392415 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macshiba Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 yea intel chipsets are the best right? im about to go spend some money Yeah, I guess so. I'm running on an Intel, and it's pretty great. In fact, I think all I've ever run on is Intel chips.
