ghosthack Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Hi everyone, just joined this forum after I read about all the cool stuff everyone can do with a Mac PC. Hope to join you all soon... I have a problem that I cant seem to figure out and have been trying more than 8 times to format my WD 120GB Sata HDD for OSX86. I am using the KALYWAY 10.5.1 DVD and I managed to boot into the installer by using "-x -legacy cpus=1", after that I go to disk utilities to format the whole hdd to Mac Extended "Journaled", everytime I click to activate the process, the bar will "move" and the HDD is being accessed, however after around 5mins or so, I will get the Mac greyed out screen that says "Please Restart your PC by pressing the restart button or by holding the Power button" that is written in a few languages. And I notice the HDD activity LED is permanently lit but I cant hear any disk movement. This is the part that I cannot get pass and still very clueless after all the searching in the forums. My system: Intel C2D 6400 2.13Ghz P5N32E-SLI PLUS 2 x 1GB Kingston 667Mhz DDR2 EGVA 8800GTS 312mb WD 120GB Sata HDD Seagate 320GB Sata HDD WD 500GB Sata HDD Pioneer 16x DVD-RW IDE Samsung 20x DVD-RW Sata To boot I only use the below and disable via Bios the rest of the devices: WD 120GB Sata HDD Samsung 20x DVD-RW Sata Hope some gurus can help me out and enlighten me with your knowledge. Much appreciated, GH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
