TheOneUnknown Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Hi Guys, I wanna try Mac OS X on a i386 PC. Installation runs fine. But when i try to boot it don't run . So, it freezes probably at the Grey Apple Bootsplash. I looked then with the Diagnostic Parameter -v and he's Crashing at "Login Window Application Started". I tried a lot of options that i found here. But nothing want going to work . What i tried : Permissions repaired ATI Extensions deleted Extension Cache deleted CHOWN and CHMOD And i'm running out of ideas . Can anyone help me plz? Have anyone an idea?

voxxdigital Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Which disc are you using? Did you read carefully the hardware wiki to check if your hardware is compatible? There are some OSX86 distros that comes with a login window fix as an install option (I believe JaS 10.4.8 and Uphuck 10.4.9 are among them).

TheOneUnknown Posted August 3, 2007 Author Share Posted August 3, 2007 Where can i get Login Window Fix? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/58869-boot-problem/#findComment-419927 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Man Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 It should be when you are installing Mac OS. When you are asked to choose whether or not to install certain software, there should be an option to include the intel.loginwindow.fix or something like that...

Stoney3K Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I seemed to have the problem WITH the fix on (as it is on by default), when reinstalling without the fix everything booted OK.

Mega Man Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Really?! What happened when you installed Mac with the fix on? Did the bootsplash appear then stay there?

TheOneUnknown Posted August 4, 2007 Author Share Posted August 4, 2007 Hmm i don't find the Fix in my Installation menu. So what can i do now? Can i install the Fix with the Terminal? Or something like that? Or is it something with my Graphiccard? EDIT : Oh wait i found it! The Intel Loginwindow fix but i have an AMD CPU Where can i get this Package for AMD?

Mega Man Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Sorry, I don't have an AMD, so I can't help you there. I think the fix was only intended for Intel because AMD's didn't have that problem? I dunno... Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/58869-boot-problem/#findComment-420666 Share on other sites More sharing options...
