Hello,
I managed to install successfully iPC 10.5.6 (final).
Now i have this problem, my display gets black. I connected a PANASONIC HDTV (via hdmi) and it worked. It also doesn't detect my laptop keyboard, i must use an usb one.

What can i do?

i installed iPC with:
voodoo 9.5
seatbelt
chipset the sb600
ati radeon 2600 Pro PCIE
laptop videodisplay
dsdt patch (it said please install one, so i installed the first)

Thanks!

Don't know cause never try out that hardware, but, ...

1. backup your actually Extensions folder
2. remove every graphics kexts. or the one u're using now. so u have to use default graphics.
3. install the custom (osx86) kexts. (this one u have to find out what kext u need cause it depends on your hardware).

IMPORTANT: Backup all your're data first

ok. i'l try. when you backup all my data what do you refer?
i only have installed OSX on one partition. i don't have any important data.
you're saying to use Backup the OS.

thanks for your advices.

you can backup your current install, making a DMG image with "Disk Utility" , or if u haven't any important data (like u said), just try that, and if fails, reinstall
