Hello-

I have a new system. Running Haswell i7, 5930K on an msi x99 krait edition motherboard. I am burning the cd for ibot in windows 10. When I put this disk into my cd/dvd/blu-ray drive it fails to boot the iboot. Other os disks such as Windows, Linux, etc. will boot. I have gone into my BIOS. I have an ACHI mode. My Sata and sSata both have an AHCI mode which they are set to. The HPET can be enabled or disabled. I do not have a choice of 64 bit vs 32 bit or some other setting. Can anyone tell me perhaps any errors I've made? Perhaps burning the iBoot for Haswell in Windows?

A Haswell System won't run Snow Leopard. I think you will at least need mavericks or mountain lion.

A: you need iBoot Haswell to install OS X SL on Haswell hardware.
B: your GPU is unsupported - replace it with a supported GPU if using the boot-arg nv_disable=1 does not get you graphics to desktop.
