Toshiba Satellite L675D-S7052 Install

I'm sorry, the laptop model is L675-S7052, didn't check before posting.

Hello all!

I have been trying to work with Mac OSX for a while now, with little to no avail. I have no access to an actual Mac for anything. I have several distros on dvd (i.e. iAtkos, iDeneb, Hazard, Retail...)

To start out, the specs of the computer are as follows:
Motherboard - Toshiba Nalae
Chipset - 785GX
Southbridge - SB850
CPU - AMD Phenom II N640 Dual Core
CPU Detail -
Name - AMD K10
Socket - S1 (638)
Family - F
Stepping - 3
Ext. Family - 10
Ext. Model - 6
Revision - DA-C3
Instructions - MMX(+), 3DNow!(+), SSE (1, 2, 3, 4A), x86-64, AMD-V
Memory
Type - DDR3
Size - 4096 MBytes
Manufacturer - Samsung
Part Number - M471B5773CHS-CH9
Graphics Card - ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series
Wireless Card - Realtek RTL8188CE
Network Card - Realtek RTL8108

I know it is a little detailed. I have done some looking, and found a few pieces of information on the hardware, but not a lot.

I am trying to install really, any version of Mac that will work. I have Leopard, and Snow Leopard Downloaded, and on DVD.

What is happening is that when I got to install the non-retail distros, I have gotten 2 errors. The first is "TSC: Verification of clock speed failed, fallback correction was performed. Please upgrade bootloader." Now I am not sure how to do a bootloader upgrade at all.

Now the second error, which is where the loading of the initial installer stops, on every distro, "ACPI: Early EC region access detected." I have not really been able to find any useful information on that error at all.

I read through several AMD install guides, commands and all, with no avail either. I have tried many combinations with the commands, and kernels.

I have a big feeling that what I am looking for is not possible at this point. If anyone has had it running on this laptop model, or any advice, please let me know.

I thank you very much!!
