I had this problem. I resolved it by running the Disk Utility (run the installation disk and look at the menu bar at the top, under "Utilities" you will find it). Click on the drive you want to install to, and click Partition. Click the Options button and choose the "Master Boot Record" option.

I think your issue is there is a small area of "free space" on your HD listed before your bootable partition. You need to go in with some kind of Partition editor and wipe out the disk completely. Make sure you only have one partition there and reinstall your OS. I used Hiren's Boot CD, it worked great.

I have already to wipe out the disk completely by OSX install before.

100% install finished, then will auto reboot computer.

I make DVD out of computer, it only show /com.apple.plist not found too.

 

Can you tell me what is ""Hiren's Boot CD""??

Where i can make this CD?

Thank you very much for your reply.

Try to get Kalaway 10.4.10 and try that one instead also check out your graphic card/chip if people have had any succes with it. If all is go with the graphics and you have Kalaway 10.4.10 but you get a blackscreen when you try to boot in to OSX check out your computers setup and reduce graphicsmemory to minimum might do the trick. Good luck
