Hello, i'm new on this forum! I have a problem with the installation process of Snow Hazard. When i try to start the DVD installation, when it trys to load some file necessary for the boot of guided installation, it's gone crash and says that the BIOS of my graphic card that is the Ati mobility Radeon HD4650, create some problem to load some of the necessary files...What can i do? And what is the best distro of snow leopard to install to my laptop?
I post a link of Megaupload of my everest's report mega upload.com/?d=ZFA2P1TQ, for give more information to you. And i want to know when i install snow leopard, my Network card(Atheros ar9285) will work? Or must i install some kexts to make it work?
Thank you for all your answers.

if u hav no internet aces in snow try to install kexts for ur lan card and if u cant than just download combo update 10.6.2 or 10.6.3 from windows and than install it from snow... if u r using 10.6.0 or 10.6.1 than take these steps before updating
