Hi all, i've been confused on a problem i've been having on my hackintosh. I have a dell 9400/e1705 and i'm aware of the issue with the radeon x1400. I was trying to install, and was able to dual boot it with vista, with no issues. The dual booter works fine, and now, for some reason, when I boot to osx, i get the apple screen then a black screen. I've read issues with the core 2 duos and boot hang, and i installed with that fix, now i'm confused. It also didnt give me the option to install a bootloader, i had to do it manually with vistas deal.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated

NVM, got the install to work, had to reinstall, but it works. Thanks for the views atleast. I am going to attempt a new build on a a bunch of older equipment i have. the system specs will be:

 

-P4 Prescott 3.0ghz

-7900gt evga

-2 gig ddr2-800

-an 80 gig raptor drive (i may add a 120 gig i have laying around in for a data drive.)

 

I ordered a gigabyte mobo and a small form factor pc. since all i had to order was a dvd drive, case and gigabyte motherboard (i checked the compatability and its good) i only paid $200 for something that will trump most power macs. i'll post more when i get it

 

heres the screenshot thus far, my screen only supports 1400x1050 due to the x1400 issue. screenshot.jpg
