hookid Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 E6600 7600 GS 2GB Corsair XMS (6400) Gigabyte DS3 (original version) 600W Ultra Power Supply WD Raptor 16MB cache 10.5.1 Kalway DVD I installed OSX following the DS3L guide someone posted on the site and changed all the bios settings as instructed. OS X installs perfectly with no problems. I take the disk out and try to boot from the HD and it starts to boot up and I get a mouse cursor that is stuck in the upper left of the screen and I get a loading cursor that I can move around. After a certain amount of time the screen just goes black and I have to restart. Never have seen the OS X log in screen. Anyone seen this problem before and might know how I can figure out what is wrong?

hookid Posted February 4, 2008 Author Share Posted February 4, 2008 Anyone know what could be causing this..... If i need to replace parts I will, or if its an installation error it should be easy to fix.

HotBreeze Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Try to format your partition with an name without spaces... or, if you have more than 1 partition, boot with GParted live CD, manage the flags, disable on other partitions that doesnt your MacOS X partition, and enable only on it.

monmon Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 We have exactly the same problem. I think our Video card is not supported. I also have 7600gs.
