DanB91 Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 a bit of an update: i tried installing on SATA, same result except this time it said "Error Loading Operating System". I read that this board is completely compatible w/ OS X except for the Audio (one of the reasons i got this board). IDK why this isn't working. Am I missing any kexts?
