Snow Leopard Installation on my Desktop (Specs Provided)

[Siro]

Hello,
This is my first post here on these forums and I had some important questions to ask before I install a copy of Retail Snow Leopard on my desktop.My specs are listed below:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo e6300
Mainboard: Intel D946GZIS
Ram: 2.5 GB DDR II 667 MHZ
VGA: EVGA Nvidia GeForce 9500 GT 512 MB
DVDRW: Sony DRU-820A (IDE)
Monitor :Acer AL1717
Keyboard: Apple USB Keyboard
Mouse: Logitech MX 518, Mx 500.
Hard-Drive: 80 GB Seagate IDE,320 GB WD SATA II & 160 GB Maxtor SATA II External

Sound Card: Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX (Works natively on Mac OS X) & Sound Blaster Audigy Gamer


Now coming to the real part I have used various distro's from Tiger to Leopard which included JAS, Kalaway,XXX and iDeneb distro's which I installed and worked perfect on my above mentioned machine without any problems AT all. Now recently I tried installing the SnowOSX Leopard Universal GM v3.5.1 copy and it successfully installed only to hang up at the apple logo during bootup. Since I have used distro's through out my entire 3 years in using Mac OS X, I needed some recommendations if my computer is capable of running Snow Leopard Retail without any major issues and what guide should I be following in order to get it running. Any comments and help forthcoming would be highly welcomed. Hoping for some great replies soon.
