Great to be back... I have a P7P55D-E Pro Hack that I am trying to update to El Capitan. I was running 10.6.8 up until yesterday. I used the guide that you followed. I am having problems with getting the usb and extra hds recognized. I was wondering if anybody had a similar problem? Any ideas...

Big Thanks to Toten and Bald for all the help... Great to know there is such helpful support out there even many years after my system was built (3.5 years ago). Good News is I was able to resolve this boot problem... I was waiting to see if the system remained stable and so far so good...

Thanks for the resources... I am not having any luck with any of this... i get a different error for every booting flag method i use... Should I just reinstall SL on my SSD?

Bald Thanks for the help... After following your commands it did not boot. Here is the screen shot I got instead ... Next step? Meaning?

Just read through your info a bit more carefully and realize Im not supposed to install SL just run it...how do i do that? So far, I changed boot priority and booted with iboot as primary boot. I got a choice between my SSD (the one in question), my secondary HD that just has data etc. on it...

Toten Thanks for so much for your patience...and generous help of course with my problem. First things first... I did some digging and found my iboot (2.5.2) disk and my SL 10.6.3 disk so that answers your initial questions of what versions I used originally...I never upgraded so that...

Totten Thanks for the quick reply... Nothing changed at all...just one day It got stuck on the Spinning circle of death. I never upgraded my 10.6 so whatever it was it was running fine and I never messed with it once it was downloaded from real apple disk. It was at least 3 years ago...

I installed 10.6 on my computer 2 years ago. Its been running fine until last week when it would freeze at white apple screen with continuous spinning disk...running a verbose I got the attached screen shot. As far as I can remember nothing was done to computer prior to it misbehaving. Can...

Well went back to the basics and dove into the BIOS settings and found that all my Original settings concerning the configure SATA to AHCI, Onboard Devices Configuration etc. had reverted back to default...DOH...not sure how or why...rebooted and all is as I left it...I'll leave it at that and...

Re: Seemingly Big Trouble (New Info) Well when I run either my installation of SL on my hard drive or the official SL retail DVD through iboot using verbose ...I get the following error or hangup... NV enabler: probe fails Realtek RTL81xxx.kext: NIC Identified as RTL8168D/8111D (mcfg=18) How...

Re: Seemingly Big Trouble FYI I can not get to desktop...computer hangs up on gray screen...other ideas?

Re: Seemingly Big Trouble I know I was always careful to do that on prior uses of multibeast but at this point I am believing anything is possible as an explanation... Any suggestions on resolving this issue? As implied above, a new install would be fine since it is a new system. However...

Ok....I am having some big problems... Got my system up and running with 10.6.5 combo update and it was working solidly. ( Only had to resolve Sleep problem). Day before yesterday, Upon starting up I suddenly had no audio. I tried to work with multibeast(2.5.1) to reinstall some audio drivers...

Re: Double DVDs Possible? Not sure what you mean by software... I just would like dual drives on my system. Do you mean dvd writer drivers? I am using the latest multibeast(2.5) and have already updated OSX to 10.6.5. Writers are both LG 24x DVD writers. According to system profiler the one...
