Many questions - what is the CPU you have.
that sound balster is it PCI or PCI-E slotted.
(soundblasters have very limited support) Generally speaking,

Is this a system that needs to have windows and OSX running - Dual Boot.
How are you planning to use the SSD and the WD HD. Partitions or one for OSX one for Windows.
Do you have the Apple Retail OSX 10.6 DVD - white cover.

Also suggest you fill in the user signature block w all of these posted componets including the CPU so we know what we are dealing with.

Sorry.
My CPU is a Core i7 2600K @ 3.4 Ghz
My Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD is a PCI-E 1x and
My SSD Vertex 4 128GB is for OS X and apps (design software) and others, HD Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB SATA III is for data.
My hackintosh is only for OS X (NO Windows)
I have Apple Retail OSX 10.6.3 DVD - white cover.
Thanks.

You might have to remove the x-fi.

Stuck on apple logo during install for long time.

Really I don't understand.

If you have a new Hard disk that has the Advanced Format spec (4k Sector) this could cause you some issues w install.

I am not sure but you maybe able to use the on board graphics HD3000 to get SL installed -

Suggest we try to use only the HD3000 GFX port - DVi to the monitor and remove the ATI Card - remove the sound card as well.

Also if you have an older HD that you can spare its a good idea to test installs on older hardware to avoid issues like Advanced Format as OSX SL is not designed w that hardware in mind. If you are getting this "grey screen" at boot up then its something to do w GFX most likely.

Using these command startup switches for your boot up - "-v -f acpi=off PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=No"
and see it this get you past to the install screen.

You should become aware of these links for the install.

You do have the 'White" DVD of Apple OSX 10.6
If you get a K.P. take a good picture and post it please.
