First post here.

I'm having trouble booting my just installed leopard using iATKOS v7. My specs are the following:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+
MSI K9A2 Platinum
2 GB DDR2 1066
ATI Radeon HD 4850
500 GB SATA HDD

My issue is it boots into chameleon, then it shows the white screen with the apple in them middle and stops there. I've also tried all combinations of the -v, -x, and -f flags and with those it loads several files very quickly and then shows a completely black screen before I can see an error or anything. Any ideas?
