Hey all! I am new to Hackintosh and ran into a little problem... I use iboot to load up SL, I get the apple logo with the loading dial, then I get a Grey screen with the color wheel as if it's about to load the set up but then my computer shuts off. I have windows 7 on my default drive but I put a dedicated drive in my comp for hackintosh so I can dual boot. I followed all the intrusions to the T and have trouble shot a couple things but with no resolve. Does anyone know why this happens? Would much appriciate the help. Thank you!
 
I had read the GTX 570 was supported though ;-; I even tried the GraphicsEnabler=No -x and that got me to the screen. Is it supported on a different osx?

The GTX 4xx and GTX 5xx Fermi cards require additional kexts to work. Try this - use -x on the second boot to get to the setup and install the fermi drivers from MultiBeast when you first get to desktop along with the 10.6.8 update combo.
 
That's just it
I can't get to the set up :/ I get the apple logo, then it goes to a Grey screen, gives the rainbow wheel :beachball: as if it's about to start the setup. But I get another loading wheel and my computer shuts down completely. I can't make it to the setup. That's where I am stuck :c

Can't tell from the info in your profile where the problem might be - Please enter mainboard make/model/rev BIOS version in the System block, identify your CPU model with full model - i.e. i7 2500K
