I have tried about 5 computers with iATKOS v7 and this is the only one that didnt have a kernal panic.
I installed mac os x and everything whent well but when i was booting into it for the first time it would not start. I tried verbos mode "-v" and a bunch of text whent through the screen and then just disapered, after that just a blank screen.
My hardware info for this computer is below.
Mother Board: Intel D915GAG
HDD: Segate Barracuda 7200.7
DVD: DVD ROM
Any help would be greatly aprecated.
Note i am trying jas os right now

What did u select in customize screen? Try without selecting any kext for graphic card, and see what happens. Later
You din't forget to include a Kernel, do you? Happens all the time!
you have to select a kernel, not all PCs can run the vanilla kernel with OSX86
Try the Voodoo 9.7, it works good for me, on a AMD M3Nht with a phenom II 965 CPU
keep the DSDT patch
no video drivers. If you have an Nvidia card, try the NVEnabler.
Chameleon 2.x should be fine
when it load, press enter and type -v -f without cpus=1 to see if it loads
if not try cpus=2 since you have a dual core
VoodooHDA audio driver should be enough
OHR patch
TyMCE patch
post install
and nothing else
In addition to the patched Kernel, he will also need to have the patched AppleIntelPIIXATA.kext (Intel IDE / SATA) to boot properly using that mainboard.
Also he GMA900 will run you into trouble @JDawson; you'll have to boot into safemode first time & add an inject and patch Intel Framebuffer & GMA950 accelator kexts with correct device IDs...
