“I updated my Dell E521 (iPC 10.5.6) via Software Update to 10.5.7, I had to reboot to the iPC DVD and copy over the mach_kernel (I made a backup before running the update), remove the "new" nVidia kexts and put back 10.5.5 via 9f23installer…”

“I just reinstalled cause I was having a similar mouse issue. nagu's advice is what fixed mine. You must remove the existing video kexts. Installed iPC with nvidia mac pro (no injectors!) Used kext helper b7 to fix my wifi (also created /Bac…”

“What does the system profiler show for your graphics/displays? It is recognizing the nVidia 7600gt and not supporting CI/GE or is it not even figuring out the card?”

“I looked at my bios (Phoenix TrustedCore) BIOS Version: 14CN56WW SATA Controller working mode: AHCI Enable Lenovo Quick Start: Yes Those seem to be pretty much the only settings there that are changeable. I used a Sony USB DVD drive. I tend…”

“Not that it's much help, but I have a S10 and I installed with DellMiniBoot123v8.01.iso.zip and the retail dvd of 10.5.6 with no problem. I also know someone who installed with msiwind.iso (I think) with no issues.”

“I noticed with 10.5.6 the nVidia graphics kexts were different. I tried all the injectors I could find, including CoreVidia, NVkush, NVinject. To get my video to work with 10.5.6 and 10.5.7 (nVidia 8800gt 512mb) I had to remove the GeF* and…”

“Just did a reinstall of iPC 10.5.6. I used the Mac Pro NVidia drivers, not any of the injectors. After the install, I downloaded 9f23installer.pkg. Boot up with the basic setting. I used kext helper to install my wifi, so it created /Backup…”

“I have a Dell E521 and I have iDeneb 10.5.5 (I think) installed just fine, I tried to upgrade to iDeneb 10.5.6 and my system won't boot off the dvd (I know the dvd is good, my laptop boots off it just fine). I tried Leo4All, sam media error…”

“I didn't get internet, I didn't even check for sound, but I don't think that was there either. I was rather focused on the darn video after I went and messed it up. I ended up doing a fresh install of 10.5.6 iPC, updating to 10.5.7 via soft…”

“My guess would be video, I have a nVidia 8800gt and when I didn't have the video correct it would boot into safe mode, low res, but when I booted "normally" it looked almost like black & white tv fuzz, if I moved the mouse there was somethi…”

“The only distrib I could get to install on my AMD with sata DVD was iPC. Leo4All and iDeneb got SAM media errors even after repeated burns of each. You have to select the voodoo kernel since Vanilla is for Intel CPUs only.”

“Did you apply the seatbelt fix? http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=148566”

“I'd definitely boot with the -v to see where it's stopping. The thing I had lots of pain with is the video, you might try the install with generic video and just see if that boots.”
