X-tra Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 My PC: Abit Fatal1ty AN8 S-ATA Maxtor 160GB AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Venice Asus EAX850XT Platinum Edition (PCIE) I tried installing Mac OS X 10.4.8 [JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with PPF1 & PPF2] after booting it shows the loading screen for a while then turns black. I reckon it's something to do with my graphic card. I made some pictures of the info it shows in diagnostic booting, I also tried booting in safe mode and then the same thing happens. Any ideas help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihelm Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 yeah, i had the same problem... basically, the black screen after startup means that the graphics driver isn't working with your graphics card... you need to find a driver that works, put that on a cd, boot up in single user mode and manually move the driver files into the extensions folder... it's a bit tricky if you've never used the command line before (i hadn't), but doable... no idea if there is a driver for your GPU, though... Edit: out of curiosity i had a look at the compatibility list for 10.4.8 -- there's a sapphire radeon x850xt listed... there's also a link there to a forum thread... might be a good starting point...
