for your graphics card there is an irc channel with them in you will find that on insanely mac just search for it. The ASU from sephy which you will find in this forum is the safest way to do the updates. But if you go to the leo4all forum which you will find on the homepage for infinitemac. There is lots of info in there on the best way to use the ASU by Zephy.

Hi. I've managed to finally get into the installer using Zeph's 10.5.1 install disc, but when I go to format the partition for OSx86, it just lists my Vista partition as 128GB and doesn't show anything after the initial 128GB. I was planning on installing Leopard on a 50GB partition at the end of the drive. If I must install OSx86 on the main drive, then I'll do some partition re-organizing on the drive, but I'd prefer to leave it as it is. If this is a problem with BIOS or a problem with Leopard I'd love to know. I'm pretty sure that it shouldn't be a problem the LBA, seeing as this is a MUCH newer mobo and should work with drives larger than 128, but you never know, MSI might just like to mess around with people since Windows has a software solution available.

System Specs:
cpu: AMD Phenom 9850 BE
mobo: MSI K9A2 Platinum 790FX
ram: Corsair Dominator 2x2gb ddr2 pc2-8500
gfx: 2x ATI Radeon HD 4850 (Crossfired)
HDDs:
3x Seagate 250GB SATAI / 1x Western Digital 250GB SATAII RAID 0
1x Seagate 250GB PATA
Optical:
Sony DVD RW DRU-530A

@ikari7789

try the latest phenom image see if that detects it differently

ikari7789 07-24-2008 11:08 PM

What is the latest phenom image?

How would that solve a HD problem?

ikari7789 07-24-2008 11:11 PM

Oops, forgot to mention that the 128 GB is part of the 250 GB PATA and that I have a 50GB partition at the end of the PATA drive (the rest is for Vista). My RAID is for my Vista storage so that I can go around and mess with things like this and not have to worry about losing much data. :)

@ikari different drivers to 10.5.1

ikari7789 07-24-2008 11:30 PM

Where can I get them? I haven't ever installed OSx86 on an AMD machine, only used my cruddy Intel box that I no longer use anymore. It had perfect compatibility though and I never had any trouble installing on it so I never learned about sources and places to find drivers. Sorry to be such a bother. Thank you already for your help.
