Installation issues.

First off i have to admit i am a total newb when it comes to OSX86.

 

Here are my Computer Specs

 

ECS PT 800CE-A Motherboard

 

3.2 Ghz P4 Socket 478 w/HT 1 Meg L2 Cache

2-1 Gig DDR 400 Kingston Hyper X

160 gig Western Digital IDE HD PArtitioned in 2 100 gigs for XP and 50 for whatever

Pioneer 111d dvd burner

Xfx Nvidia 7600Gs 512 MEg version

 

I tried uphucks 10.4.9 r3 dvd booted but then all that i was able to see instead of Dish druid was a command console. Can someone tell me what to do from there.

 

Then i tried Jaz 10.4.8 and the gui looks like its about to work but then it stays froxen with a blue screen and dvd stops reading

 

Both were were booted with the -v option. Can anyone tell me where i should go from here?

I'd personally make sure the DVDs that you are using are still good, as it sounds like a read error to me. However, if that's not the case, I'd simply boot without the -v option and see how things go. If possible, get more information about the text that shows up for UpHuck, and for JaS, see if there's any improvements without the -v option.

before installing, disable hyper threading feature from your bios settings and then retry to install, see if helps any.

 

if it does not work, execute the -v boot flag, and read from the scrolling text if it mentions about panic, link/load error or fails. post it here if there is any.

I will try both.
