Trouble install 10.5 on X38 chipset
I have the maximus formula motherboard and a Q9550, 4gb ocz reaper, HD4870, IDE dvd writers, and sata hard drives. I cant seem to install OS X, no matter what I try.
Im kinda new to this. I used iAtkos on my old hardware and also installed it in XP using the flat-img. Has anyone installed it on my motherboard or knows how? What should I set the bios options to? Is there a modified bios I could use to flash my bios? Thanks I put this in my sig, but for some reason its not showing up.. ASUS Maximus Formula Q9550 @ 3.6ghz 4GB OCZ Reaper 1158mhz Sapphire HD4870 5 WD Sata hard drives 2 IDE DVD, Sony/LG Antec P180 Antec Tru Power 650 Zalman 9700 led |
Bump, can anyone help?

Did I post this in the wrong section?

Also could you post your HD controllers? |
Name a HD controller and I will be able to tell you if thats the right one.. I know that the ide controller is a jmicron, as for the sata controller, I cant think right now..
But here is what happens when I try to boot the iAtkos 5i DVD http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n...Picture051.jpg http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n...Picture048.jpg |

Does the MD5 checksum match properly (in other words, is it correct)? I think you have got a faulty OS X install DVD... I would recommend XXX 10.5.6 over iAtkos 5i also... |
"XXX 10.5.6" Is that the leo install?
I havent tried the md5 yet |
