Hi well welcome to the scene... and thank you and all the other 1000s of noobs  posting the error message" grey Circle with the Cross appears..."
Okay I'll stop being sarcastic...
You have to do a verbose boot, so during the bootloader press the down button to select "verbose" and see at which line the systems hangs, because a grey screen with a cross makes no-one happy. You can also type -v.
But Maybe your lucky and I might already know what the problem is. Your sata harddisks in bios are not in AHCI mode? So set everything to AHCI, also the jmicron controllers. So no IDE and no RAID. or try to boot with -f.
If you don't have a ich9r chipset you might need to use a patched kext for harddisk or choose a different sata port on the motherboard.
