OK, so I installed iDeneb 1.4 10.5.6 on my PC, with a partitioned SATA drive (Windows 7/OSX). It installed just fine on my system, but when I'm about to boot normally, it just freezes at the Apple logo, sans the Ajax spinning animation. Booting with the -v flag shows this screen (sorry for the quality, I just took it with a Nokia):

I did some research with this, and some people say that it's likely to be caused by my board's BIOS or something else. I hooked up my hard drive on another PC, tried booting OS X and it works without any forced booting. I haven't seen fix anywhere for this. Can anyone give some suggestions regarding this? Do I need to buy a new board?
