I have a Dell Vostro 1000

AMD x2 TL-60 2.0 ghz
2 GB RAM
120 GB Hard Drive (Toshiba)

Well this is what i did…
First i Partitioned with Norton Partition Magic 8.05 to 30 GB and in format FAT32 (because i heard FAT32 for macs)
then i loaded my Leopard DVD, and it loaded, but when i got to select a drive no drives showed up

Then i stopped and went back into XP, then i deleted the Partition and Resetup a Parition in NTFS. then when i loaded my leopard DVD, when i got to the part where i had to select a drive, nothing showed up.

go back to xp and delete all the partitions and leave the disk with just free space, you make the partitions with disk utility using the install disk

Are you using the rev 2 version
