iMotox Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I put in the CD in my computer and it installs to the part where you need to use Disk Utility to format your HDD. I open disk utility but it does not find any disks. I tried creating a HDD in disk utility but the biggest it will let me make is 34.8 megs. Please someone help me. Thanks in advanced ..::iMotox::..

DoiX Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 the link you posted doesn't help, we need to know what is your mother board/chipset anyway... probable reason your hdd is not shown: chipset is not (fully)supported Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/89774-152-amd-install/#findComment-641443 Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMotox Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 nvida nforce 560 is my chipset Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/89774-152-amd-install/#findComment-641462 Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMotox Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 So is there a way to fix that my chipset is "not fully supported"? I can't buy and install a new mother board because i'm under a 2 year warranty and opening it voids the warranty.

iMotox Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Before the installation I typed in "-v - x -y cpus=1" and loaded the installation like that. The only errors that I saw are below: During boot up of CD ERROR: Firewire unable to determine security mode After disc still not found Disk0s2: Device is write locked I think it might be because my disk is write locked -.- Does anyone know a way to "unlock it"?
