How do you have your partitions set up? I used EASEUS Partition Manager 3.0 to resize the C: drive from 120Gb to 60Gb. I did it with out trashing Win XP. I then formated the other half of the HD to Fat32. I put in the install disk and used the disk utility to format the other half of the HD, and installed iPC Finial 10.5.6 on my AspireOne AOA-150 I also used this program to clone the 120Gb HD to a 320Gb HD on the Net book and did the same thing on my Acer 5670 with a 500Gb HD.I swapped out the HD on both laptops, and was able to boot into Leopard and XP on both. I now have 2 Acers here running XP and iPC Finial 10.5.6, with lots of room for videos and music. Look for the free version under Home & Home Office. Great program heres the link [http://www.partition-tool.com/].

I hope this will help you. Here is another Link check it out too [http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=129774] this will point you to what you need to get things working. I also replace the Atheros wi-fi card with the Dell 1490. there is another link for installing iPC Finial 10.5.6 but I can't find it right now, search the forum.

Good Luck Bestman50

Thank you.

I now also install iPC Final 10.5.6 on my Aspire AOD 105 (a new AspireOne). I can install the OS by following the linked threat. However, after installation and restart, both mouse and keybroad cannot be detected. Shall I select and mobo instead of select nothing?

After selecting one of the two PS2 drivers, both keyboard and touch pads work.

Though I successfully installed, I have the following issue with AOD150:

- it freezes after a while - properly due to entering energy saving mode (can't remember how to fix it :'()

- LAN card and wireless card do not work - both uses Atheros :mad:

- no sound - it uses different sound card, not that of the previous Aspire One

- not yet able to change display resolution ... no time because it freezes

.... need help!!!!
