liejoek Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hi, I've been messing around with some osx86 builds and it seems my hardware isn't compatible with leopard. I was able to install a version of Tiger (don't remember which one, i believe it was 10.4.1). I have 2 versions of Leopard: the leopard flat img (the one you have to write to a partition with DD) and a dvd-version (iATKOS_v1.0i.iso). Both versions give me the same problem: i'm able to boot my computer, but i immediately get the message i should restart my computer. This i can do for ages, but hey, that's not that usefull. I used everest to compile a report on my hardware, hopefully there's someone who can indicate what causes my pc not to be supported. Hope it offers enough information. (oh, and i already used cpuz to check if my processor is sse2 and sse3 compatible, which it is. Thanks for helping me out!

liejoek Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Well, it seems i have a SSE3 compatible processor and downloaded the iATKOS image-file, wich demands a SSE3+ processor. Is this a demand for all leopard installations or are there other installation packages that would work with my SSE3?
