I have a copy of the AMD/INTEL 10.6 of Snow Leopard by Hazard on DVD. I have tried to boot from the DVD on my Dell 1501 Inspirion Laptop, I get to the boot screen when setting up the installation with the apple logo, the DVD starts spinning and after a while of the screen showing the DVD stops spinning and everything is silent. The installation set up doesnt show up, I get the boot screen with the apple but no spinning circle.

Then to reboot I have to turn the computer off and back on. I cant seem to start the set up. Any help would be gladly appreciated. Thank You.

My specs:
Dell 1501 Inspirion
AMD Athalon 64 x2 Dial Core 1.0Ghz
ATI Radeon Express 1500
1.0 GB RAM
Broadcom 802.11g Network Adaptor Card

Thanks for your reply's guys.

I have successfully installed 10.5.2 on my Dell 1501 with Kalyway. But I wanted to upgrade the OS to snow leopard 10.6 using Hazard. The disc doesnt seem to boot as I have said and Im not sure what they next steps to solving this are.
