I installed zephyroth 10.5.2 and can only boot up with -x otherwise I get the white with apple logo screen to come up for a bit then I get a snowy looking white and black screen. I have installed the latest natit.kext and still get the same problem. Runs ok in safe mode, even the internet. I have an ati radeon hd 3870 card and think maybe this is a big part in it. Do I need to get rid of nvidia kexts? I am sorry I am an ivirgin. I would appreciate any help, and thanks.
My system specs are:
Asrock Alivexfire-Esata2 mobo
AMD Anthlon 64 X2 5200 processor
ATI Radeon HD 3870 512MB
4g memory
I am using a sata2 drive
