Frozen Progress Circle on DVD Boot of iATKOS 5i, Hardware/Image I'm Using ITT

[eqmac]

Greetings all, grateful noob here.

My computer: Gateway DX4720-03

Processor: Intel Pentium E5200 (Dual-Core) @2.50GHz (MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, EM64T)
Mainboard: Gateway MS-7399
Chipset: NVIDIA GeForce 7100
Southbridge: NVIDIA nForce 630i
DVD Hardware: DVD?RW / DVD-RAM
Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium x64-based PC
BIOS Version/date: American Megatrends Inc. A7399NG2.202, 8/6/2008 (SMBIOS Version: 2.5)

Image I'm Using: iATKOS 5i DVD: Leopard 10.5.5 Build 9F33 OSX86 installer DVD for Intel CPU X86 computers

I burned the iATKOS ISO onto a DVD.

What I did:

1. Partitioned approx. 15 GB (unallocated) space from my HD
2. Rebooted my computer with DVD-burn of iATKOS iso in the computer.
3. The option to boot from CD came up, to which I hit F8. Typing -v or enter would just auto-restart my computer, the solution to this I found was typing CPUS=1 which loaded the grey Apple screen.
4. From there, my computer gets stuck with a spinning progress circle. After a few minutes, a strike-through circle appears.



I seriously apologize that this question has probably been answered before, I used the search to look for solutions and was unable to come up with any working solutions.

I appreciate any kind of insight into what I can do.

Cheers and thank you in advance

This is the image I am receiving after pressing F8 and typing cpus=1.


I would type -v instead of cpus=1 after the F8, except it just causes my computer to restart anytime I do it instead of going to the apple screen.

I researched it some more, and found out it might be a compatibility issue with the nVidia hardware. To try fix my problem, I patched my iATKOS.iso with a iDeneb_v1.3_nForce_Patch.zip and re-burned it.

I'm not sure if I should have been patching an iATKOS.iso with an iDeneb nForce v1.3 patch, but it sure didn't work. Still getting the grey screen with a strike-through circle.

I'm thinking I should download iDeneb v1.3 and apply the nForce iDeneb 1.3 patch and re-try the whole thing.

Am I right? Any ideas or suggestions?
