Hello All,

This is my first Hackintosh system and the forums have been so helpful in getting 10.9 installed and booting to safemode.

Now I am in a bit of a pickle, I run multibeast and have tried a bunch of settings but still end up having the system only boot with these flags:

-f -x GraphicsEnabler=No maxmem=4096 npci=0x2000 -v

Here is the photo of what happens with the same boot flags minus the -x:

Hardware specs:
Motherboard: Intel DH77KC
Processor: i7-3770
Audio: RealTek 8168E
Graphics: Nvidia GT 120 (Originally from a Mac Pro 3,1 in safe mode it is fully functional without any fiddling) I also have the original ATI 5750 if the video card is the problem.

I found this very vague webpage with some info about OSX on the Vostro 470:
http://macros.cc/osx86/安装os-x-at-dell-vostro-470/

I am not sure if this is enough info to have anyone help, but if you need any other info I should be able to provide.
 
So just a follow up, I found a quick note in the forum about the boot flag dart=0 turns out this was the only thing holding my system back.

Everything is up and running correctly and no issues yet.
