Im backing stuff up and going to run quick-erase in DBAN so all 3 harddrives get a fresh clean so I can start over again. Probably the millionth time I have had to reinstall Windows 7.
Yes you will have less problems with multiple hard drives since nothing will overwrite nothing... Is it refusing showing the HDD in disk utility? if yes...have you set it up for AHCI??? I had this problem since my bios has option for AHCI on port 1-4 and 5-6 and i changed only 1-4

I don't know whats going on, because DBAN did not fix the problem. With 3 harddrives in my computer it is not allowing me to install Snow Leopard anymore. Instead I get a weird error now saying Cmos failed 3 times or something saying that. This is very strange... Now I have a bigger headache now.

Used Mod Cd boot disc like I normally do and I use Hazard 10.6.6i(something I know they don't like us talking about here) but its what I used to use to get Snow Leopard running because I could never get retail to work ever. Used to install fine before I had my neighbor put his harddrive in temporarily so I can do this little Hackintosh project. Maybe one of the plugged in cords is causing this weird CMOS failing 3 error? Should I try filming this all with my Vita camera(It's junky but all I have...)

Edit: I'm gonna make another video so people can see what I see. Also I used to use the -v -x -f cpus=1 busratio=20 arch=i386 on modcd plus hazards distro but that really isn't needed. I tried doing it and I still get the error so I know that command isn't needed.

New Video, new problem... I thought 3 harddrives would finally be my solution to getting Lion to finally work... Now I have a new problem, can't even install Snow Leopard anymore... Weird CMOS errors showing up now. There is no easy way to get Lion to work with my rig, unless I'm just a screw up.

OMG, OMG, OMG I GOT IT WORKING! LION LOADS BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY INTERNET CONNECTION ETHERNET CONNECTION ISN'T DETECTED ARE THERE ANY kexts for it? Sorry for caps, I'm so excited!!! I can't believe that I got it working! I need Kexts for my internet and Voodoo Kexts to get my audio working. No which ones I'll need? I can't believe I got it working. Also, finder is not working so I need the correct finder.

Yeah, I realized that Chameleon still refuses to install to my Lions harddrive. I only got Lion working because a black loader came up and I'm pretty sure thats not Chameleon.

I still have the problem of my Finder being broken, Sound not working, and internet not working for Lion. They really don't make this all that easy for me.

Congratulations, Godofwar!

Which method did you use?

Finder won't work. Google Lion DP2 Finder (is a 32-bit version).

Google also kexts.com - there you will find any kext that you really need.
