Well, first of all, i tried installing with just leaving customization at its defaults and when it restarted, I got the You need to restart your computer error.
Then I tried selecting the voodo kernal and tryed installing with some of the driver option that i think applied to me.. it still wont work. I need to know exactly which things to check and which ones to not.
this is my motherboard..
mother boards.org/reviews/motherboards/1852_1.html
options
i checked in:
iATKOS v5i Main System
Bootloader - is auto checked in (didnt change anything in here)
X86 Patches - is autochecked in (checked in voodo kernal)
Drivers:
-VGA
-nVidia
-NVinject
Didnt check anything else that time. I also tried insalling with no X86 patches and no drivers also same error. suggestions?

on the website of iatkos, it says that my graphics card should work fine with it.

what customization are you struck at? choosing kernel? or drivers or anything specific?
List clearly your video card, audio card, Chipset, then for the list appropriately choose the right drivers. If you dont find appropriate one, try the forum, They might have the answer. you can choose Vanilla kernel or the voodoo kernel. my suggestion would be voodoo, though ppl feel "Sexy"(ok..atleast some..) using Vanilla kernel.
u may sometimes have to try different combos on drivers if it things dont work. Be aware, it is time consuming...some times frustrating..most of the times u may have to reinstall multiple times.

what options did u check when installing iatkos 5i?
try booting with "-x" flag, maybe it's a graphics kexts issue, so u need to fix your kexts, if it boots try erasing all graphics kexts, and then search for the good ones for your chipset and install it, then reboot with "-f" boot flag.
