~pcwiz Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 This usually points to a compatibility problem with your computer and the ISO you are using. Try using the Uphuck 10.4.9 v1.3 Universal DVD instead.

cbmkgd Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Very probably because you have a nForce 405 mobo, with which OSX doesn't like SATA drives (corruption in writing data). A solution is to install osx on a pata (ide) drive; you can find cheap ones for sale these days. There is a kext available for nf4 mobo's, but which does not/might not work for your nf405. Some have recently developped another such kext, look in the link I just gave.

CBMKGD, thanks for the help...but i dont know how to install a kext, do i have to install it after the OS X installation?? because actually i haven't been able to do it.

cbmkgd Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 My point about the kext is that it possibly won't apply to your situation; you will have to go into the thread I gave a link to, and ask the question there. Easiest solution is to install a second hd, a pata/ide one, and install osx on it, if indeed your chipset isn't supported.

~pcwiz Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 You won't be able to download Uphuck 1.3 anytime soon because Demonoid is down (shut down by authorities) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/63775-please-help-ive-been-trying-ot-install-the-osx-1048-on-my-pc-but-it-freezes-after-booting/#findComment-456381 Share on other sites More sharing options...
