I've been working on building a Hackintosh for a friend of mine. I have built one previously by using an older method (http://lifehacker.com/5351485/how-to-build-a-hackintosh-with-snow-leopard-start-to-finish).
The specs he is running are
Asus P7P55D-E Pro
i5 750 core
EVGA GTX460
Following various instructions by Tonyxmac86 and others, I only put in one stick of ram and have the bios set as needed. However when Iboot gets to Chameleon, I swapped for the purchased SL disc. After a few minutes of the apple loading screen, i received the error "please restart your computer. Hold the Power button." I have perused on the forums here and tried various things to figure out what could be causing it. Trying -v -x PCIRoot=1 or any various others runs it's dialogue to end with the line:
I'll attach the image below of the screen, if that isn't any help.
I'm a little lost and out of ideas after looking around for a few hours here. Any ideas what I could do to rectify this? If I need to provide more info please tell me so.
Thanks in advance
