Won't load Snow Leopard Installation Screen

Soxpool15 · Apr 24, 2014

I've gotten to the point to swap out the iBoot disc and put in the Snow Leopard disc but when I try to load the disc and get into the installation screen. I have tried booting it up normal and also in safe mode as is described in the iBoot + MultiBeast: Install Mac OS X on any Intel-based PC. Any information or other options will be helpful!

Check your BIOS - Network settings - to see if you have any WOL enabled . This is a function of the network. and Needs to be disabled Wake On Lan (WOL)!

Also you need to be using boot switches

-v PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=No

See this link.

Thank you for your response! I have disabled the Wake on LAN in my Power Management BIOS and used the boot switch below that you gave me. I am still getting the two screens that I posted below. Any other thoughts or options?

What version of the BIOS do you have.

I believe it is the UEFI DualBIOS.

Ok so you have the default BIOS ....

See if you can search our forums for information from users of this motherboard and what BIOS they used.

Also we have some information on UEFI BiOS settings that you should look at...
