I know that it is quite a big task but I need all the help I can get.

I am installing iPC OSX 10.5.6 onto my PC but I can never work out what drivers.etc to install. The options when clicking "Customize" on the screen just before the install. Every time after guessing the options I end up with a non-working installation that freezes during boot up.

If I post the specifications of my PC can somebody please tell me all the options that I need to select on the "Customize" screen.

PC Specifications

CPU: AMD Athlon II x4 620
Mobo: ECS Geforce 6100PM-M2
RAM: 2gb DDR2
HDD: 80gb Maxtor IDE
Graphics: Onboard Geforce 6150 SE
Audio: Onboard (Not sure what)
Network: Onboard Ethernet

This is my first attempt at a hackintosh and I really don't know much at all so I really need help. Any help will be highly appreciated.

Try with a bare minium of drivers and patches.
Meens Voodoo Kernel + 10.5.5 seatbelt.kext, nForce Chipset driver, DSDT with NewHPET + Chameleon with SMBIOS & DSDT and propably PS/2 drivers.

Be aware that neither your onboard-geforce nor your onboard-nic is supported by OS X.
