Hi. I am new here and wanting to install Snow Leopard on my Dell Studio 15.

I have tried using Tonymacx86's install guide ↗ to install. But upon trying to boot off the iBoot CD, it KPs.

Here (lh4.gg pht.com/_eDqZbOCqaZ0/TCiTJKv7_NI/AAAAAAAAAFI/nxzOxQG_zyE/s800/DSC_0544.JPG) is the KP error message. Sorry about the picture its a bit blurry.

My system configuration is:

Dell Studio 1537

  • Processor - Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T5900 @ 2.20 GHz
  • Motherboard - Intel GM45/GM47
  • RAM - 3 Gb RAM Memory (1 x 1gb and 1 x 2gb)
  • Graphics - Mobile Intel ® 45 Express Chipset
  • Logitech Wireless Mouse & Keyboard (USB dongle)

I have attached the CPU-Z dump .txt incase I missed anything crucial.

I have the legit Snow Leopard Install DVD's, am I better off using a install such as iDeneb? I have tried around 2 years ago to use iDeneb but never got past the KP.

I am currently using Windows 7 Ultimate.

Thanks very much in advance.
