Strange booting problem

Hi all !

 

 

My specs are:

 

Intel Core 2 Duo (supports SSE 3)

ASRock VSTA Motheboard

IDE 160 Gb HD

 

I was able to install Leopard on an IDE HD. I have only one partition (GUID).I have changed lots of stuff on the BIOS (disable USB, Raid to non-Raid etc....).Nothing works. On the OSX installer I only installed the Vanilla and the EFI for the correspondent format partition (now using GUID).

 

When I start the computer it detects the Leopard install on my HD but restarts almost automotically. I have tried with -v , -v -x, -f and vanilla comands ... I do get some strange errors saying :

 

"Hey we are going backwards - > restarting timing" and "calibration failed with 2 attempts".

 

Seem it is something from the BIOS but not sure what.

 

Anyone got the same problems as I did ?
