NXN Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Hey guys, I've successfully installed KALYWAY 10.5.1 but when I reboot and start OSX ... after 15 sec it gives me a big power button error saying I have to restart. Then I restarted, F8 and -x -cpu=1; I went past that point and it started asking me for language, etc. Then, When it asks about transferring files from another Mac, I choose "Do not transfer"....waits 30 sec and loops back to the "Choose language screen". Has anyone experienced this problem and if so, can you post what causes it? Thanks. eVga 680i c2d 2.16 GHz (overclocked to 2.9) 8800GTS 2GB 160 GB PATA drive Plextor DVD Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/94026-loop-at-welcome-screen/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
starobrno1 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I might be wrong but if I´m not misstaken people say 8800 gt videocards can cause problems.

bilsta58 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 boot with ( cpus=1 -x "Graphics Mode"="640x480x32" ) and it will bypass the setup and you go straight to the desktop.

komeet Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 This is a common problem and mostly related to the network card. Try to disable your network in your BIOS settings or use the trick above.
