Hey im quite new to osx86 and im trying to instal iAtkos v7 on my computer. I boot from DVD and when it loads up it instantly restarts before it gets the the apple logo. Ive also tried using the -v -x -f commands at the startup options but does not solve the issue.
My specs are :

Mobo : GA-P55A-UD3
CPU : Intel Core i5 750
RAM : 4GB DDR3 1333MHz
Graphics Card : Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT

I am sure its not my DVD as ive tried it on my Dell Studio 17 laptop and it runs just fine on it, but it wont accept my PC. Anyone know the problem here?

Field Note #1 @Imkantus 2010-04-11

Try to boot using "/mach_970 -v" or maybe "/mach_970 cpus=1"

And post to correct forum next time: This one doesn't deal with Distros - just Retailinstallationmethods. Distro related stuff belongs to the Prepatched → forum.
