Andak Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Hi folks I just got in this game and want to give it a shot. --- My specs: CPU: AMD Athlon 64 - 3500+ Motherboard: Asus A8N-E Hard drive: (Several, but the one I want to install Mac on) Samsung SpinPoint T166 500 GB SATA Graphic Card: nVidia GeForce 6800GT --- Well, the story goes: I got two versions of Mac.. Uphuck - 10.4.9 iAtkos v.1.0i - 10.5.1 But I got the same problem in both installations. At a certain point the installation freeze! First I tried with the Uphuck version, and it kept freezing, sometimes when I entered disc utility and was formatting, sometimes during the installation when the progressbar is displayed, apparently at the same spot. When I decided to try the iAtkos, I downloaded the image and noticed after the download that it was Intel ONLY! But after a closer look, I found the installation guide for iAtkos image on AMD prosessors. So I followed the instructions and guess what... it keeps on freezing too! It drives me mad So I tried burning the image on a slower speed and with another burningprogram (first Nero - then Imgburner) - but still the same problem at the same point of the installation... I'm burning with DVD +R What could it be??? The DVD Reader?
