hi i'm having problems trying to install OSX 10.6.3 on my toshiba C660D notebook. it has Dual-core AMD Athlon™ II X2 P360 Processor and ATI Radeon HD 4250 Graphics.
i have tried running the bootcd from a amd guide on this forum and the empire efi bootcd and nawcom bootcd but all the boot cds freeze at ACPI: System State [S0 S3 S4 S5] (S3).

anyone any ideas
