Welcome to Infinitemac

It is good practice to select only the bare minimum options when you install. Selecting NO graphics options will still give you VESA graphics and a working install. You can then apply the necessary files to get your graphics cards fully supported.

1. Try using the following boot flags

Code:

-v -f -x

2. If the first doesnt work Boot into single user mode by using the flag

Code:

-s

Allow for the modification of files by typing:

Code:

/sbin/mount -uw /

Now lets backup and remove some things.

Code:

mkdir /Backup2
cd /System/Library
cp -R Extensions/ /Backup2
rm -Rf Extensions.mkext
cd Extensions
rm -Rf ATI*
rm -Rf GeForce*
rm -Rf NVDA*
rm -Rf natit.kext
rm -Rf titan.kext
rm -Rf NVinject.kext
rm -Rf NVkush.kext

Im not sure which graphic options you chose. Im only familiar with some of the older patched install disks so these newer version may fool around with EFI strings in com.apple.Boot.plist so if the above doesnt work try booting with -F as in cap F. Im pretty certain this will ignore Boot.plist if there are any strings.
