Chrystopher Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Hello! My Configuration: -Motherboard: AsRock ConRoe1333-DVI/H R2.0 -Processor: Intel 1.6Ghz Dual Core 1MB BOX Socket 775 E2140 /Intel Core2Duo/ -Videocard: Asus GeForce EN7300GS 256MB TV DVI PCIExpress -RAM: 2x1GB 533Mhz DDR II RAM Kingmax -DVD: NEC AD-7170 SATA 18X DVD -Power: Trust 370W High End ---------------------------- Bought them yesterday... My problem: When I`m trying to boot the OSX 10.4.10 from the DVD it stops loading and nothing happens. I`m restarted and tried to start it with -v -f options. I`m recieving this: Kernel Panic etc... ,,Unable to find driver for this platform: ''ACPI'' I`m tested the hardwares with 2 Operation Systems: Mandrake Linux 2007 & Windows XP Blade Edition(it`s a Hungarian fine-tuned OS) and they`re worked fine so no HW error. Maybe. I hope! Help me guys please! How to boot from the CD? Can I start the ACPI driver from an USB? Or need a new DVD? Or what to do? Thank you, Christopher from Hungary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synaesthesia Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 You should try another distro of OS X because you have 100% compatible hardware. Maybe uphuck, iAtkos, kalyway or JAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bestestever Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Ok .. that 7300 May be the issue. On the cd of course that might not have drivers for it . Do the following on cd boot: Push F8 Type: -f -v -x And if that doesnt work... Than Type: "Graphics_mode"="xxxx*xxx@xx" Fill in the x's with a resulation. If you arent sure about what resulations your card can do . Type ?video This will list all video mode your GPU can handle. Try that stuff then come back here and post your results.
