    SERIOUSLY NEED ASSISTANCE RE INSTALLING SNOW LEOPARD [PLEASE AND THANK YOU IN ADVANCE]

    WELL ALRIGHT. Here to report that SNOW LEOPARD 10.6.8 is now RE INSTALLED on my hard drive. I had a couple of curious things to happen, in that while installing 10.6.8, the monitors again went out [!] and it became necessary to once again shut down the system. Upon rebooting with iBoot [much to...

    OKAY. Made it through the welcome and password screen, and got the keyboard identified. On the desktop. Placed the dsdt FA [I think that's the one I got from GB awhile back] for GIGABYTE EX58A UD7, but couldn't find Multibeast in the iBoot disc. Didn't see the hard drive, but I am certain that...

    HOT NEWSFLASH! GUYS!! GOT IT INSTALLED! Well, at least I got to the part where I'm putting my name in the system. Monitor cut off again while putting in my password. I expect it to be okay, though. Just have to make it to the desktop, put in my dsdt aml for my UD7 motherboard and of course...

    Thanks for that intel [no pun intended, unless it's considered great] TRS96, on the GT210 card. I found one on Amazon for under forty dollars. Plan to get it when it comes in stock and try IT. I also happened across THIS from another site on the 980 TI. Let me clear, I don't plan on trying to...

    Yes. And thank you for your quick response, G.B. However, remember when we first met? It had actually installed with no problem! Back THEN the problem was AFTER installation, which you helped me with. With your expertise, I was able to get back to the SNOW LEOPARD on the desktop, add the changes...

    Okay. Update to previous post: Went back, checked BIOS, and the only thing I had to change was to make my optical drive the first one up. Of course, I was doing this using F12, but just to be certain, I went back and went through everything. The same problem still exists: I get to iBoot, Disk...

    Hi. I'm including a picture of my Snow Leopard Install disc. If I remember correctly you could install it more than once. I used it before when G.B. helped me to sort this out the first time years ago. Back then the issue was getting back to the desktop after the install, which he helped me...

    Hi. Thanks for your reply. This is the disk I used to install it the first time. And it came with the MACBOX set from Apple although I think I purchased it at the local MICROCENTER years ago. When you say retail, I'm guessing you mean purchased? Or was the version that didn't come with MACBOX...

    OSX QUITS DURING PROGRESS BAR

    Hi. My SNOW LEOPARD 10.6.8 system had been working fine since I put it together back in 2011. With the expert assistance of GOING BALD, my Gigabyte UD 7 system was ROCKING...until two weeks ago, when it decided to get stuck during booting up. It goes to the Apple screen, the progress bar starts...

    Zonet ZEW1642D Wireless PCI Adapter Success

    INTERNET IS WORKING Alright. Here's the scenario-- Just as I was about to perform surgery on my all new MACINTEL (love the phrase from insanely mac forum), a PCI cardendectomy (removing the Zonet card), an uncharacteristic bout of lethargy suddenly ensued which post poned the operation. As I...

    Zonet ZEW1642D Wireless PCI Adapter Success

    Alas, for I've not yet gotten Windows yet... that was on the blocks for next month, along with two more hard drives. I was just going to take it back to the store. I'm just going to take it out of the system and get another identical card. See if that works. Hopefully Microcenter will have them...
