Kalyway 10.5.2 DVD Intel_Amd Problem

Hello everyone,
One more with a problem...
So i install it, then it restarts, everything ok. Then the Mac icon appears and then the menu of the keyboard and country settings(where the menu for import settings from other previous mac appears).
So i select my settings, my country and that i DON'T want to import any settings. The HDD activity stops for a while, the icon from when Mac is busy appears and that menu starts from the begining(loop).
I had to reinstall vista because it won't pass that part.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance...

BTW: My MoBo is a ABIT I45D
My processor is a Core2Duo 2.80GHZ
My graphics card is a ATi RADEON HD 2600 Pro 512MB DDR2

PS: Sorry for my bad english

i havn´t the sources at hand (there used to be an article in the old wiki) about this infinite loop,
but as i recall it originates from some network issues. One solution was using a boot flag at bootup (f8) like "displaysize=800x600" (google for the exact syntax), as osx skips the setup process on small displays. another solution was temporarily disabling the network card in the bios.
another solution involved some skripts ..
