only Asus K50IN boot cv V2 will boot to chameleon, v1/1.1/iboot, do not load maybe im burning them to the disk incorrectly i dont think i am though, the boot cd V2 will load to chameleon press f5 and all that, it gets to loading darwin gets stuck a little bit but keeps going then when it is supposed to start loading the graphic interface, the screen goes all solid colour and flashing ocasionally changing colour much like a disco. and thats it.

i have updated my bios and even tried changing the com.boot.apple.plist thing in the boot V2 cd, which (before i had altered it) worked into chameleon every time, but now when i try and change something like altering the plist file adding or taking away a kext (i tried to get it working by changing the graphics enabler, swapping out the nvenabler for nvenabler64) it doesnt boot into chameleon at all!!. ive pretty much tried everything i can, over and over again, and i cant seem to be able to boot from usb either but i still have burnable cd's so i dont care. what in hell am i doing wrong??

from reading this forum it should be working perfectly! and im normally quite good with computers
any help would be increadibly appreciated!!!!!

bios 222
core 2 due t6670
4gb ram
nvidia 102m

Hello all members!
I need help, I have a notebook ASUS Intel K50 IN color duo, nvidia GeForce G102M.
At that already searched the forum there are those who have this graphics card running at 100%.
I installed this notbook S3 iAtkos 10.6.3. funcionase could never get well.
I upgraded to 10.6.6 with the 10.6.5 kernel. 64b running in this
everything is going well, I lack an addition to the graphics card.
By Kext nitit that could have graphics acceleration.
But I identify with the same 256mb to 512mb.
Also installed the NVEnabler 64.kext. Utility and run the Kext is just 512mb to identify correctly, the problem is that when Renicio the system, I get the apple on the screen and can not enter the system but this shows me not only hasten the desktop or table.
I thank you.
any help is welcome.

PS: Sorry for my English,

Hello all,

i installed succesfully to 10.6.6, just remember to replace the AppleHDA.kext from 10.6.3

@gagibug: i think you should try the vanilla install method described on the first page, i personally use chameleon`s graphic enabler.

@hoffbrandm: Look at page 10-11! There you'll find everything! When I get back home, I'll post the S/L/E and E/E folders that worked for my Asus K50IN!

@flip360: How do you update, can you tell me, because I want to update but I don't want to mess up my instalation!

ok i seem to be missing something could someone please right down precisely (i have tried to follow the forums instructions) about how to install retail 10.6.3. using Man of the Oaks extra and s/l/e files, and IO80211Family.kext.

PS does it matter that i cant boot into that partition, i have to use iboot... starting up the computer leads to 'no operating system found' or just the flashing underscore. if it is a problem is there a way of changing the bootable partition, bios changes it i think? or something like that, or perhaps is that the problem at all? should i just delete the windows partition and figure out how to dual boot a different way?

i deleted the windows partition and started like that, then it worked, being able to boot up from its own partition..

but now i want to install windows and keep mac osx partition active?!
