I have tried several versions of os x and most hang on the boot to install the only 1 I can get anywhere with is jas 10.4.8 and i get to the install screen but my hard drive doesn't show up, i tried to get into my bios to change the acpi? or whatever settings but the bios are empty. its a blank hard drive unformatted heres the specs.

amd turion 64 x2 tl-64 i think which is 2.2ghz
3gb ram
160gb sata drive
