SamG Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Hello all! I'm attempting to install the latest Kalyways Leopard 10.5.1 and I get to Apple logo and loading circle. As it's going along I get a circle with a slash through it over the Apple logo and it just sits there. At first I thought it might be HDD detection, but it's recognized by the BIOS and the onboard controller. This is my first time ever trying to install Leopard so I'm a total n00b. I'm working with a blank Samsung 500gb sata HDD. Is there anything else I need to do before I run the installation disc? My specs are as follows: MB: Intel BLKD975XBX2KR LGA 775 Intel 975X Proc: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 RAM: Corsair XMS 5400 DDR2 2gb Video: Sapphire Radeon X1950pro DVD: Toshiba IDE HDD: Samsung 500gb Sata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
