EBIOS read error: Media Error- H61M-HD2/i3 3220/9800GT (Picture inside)

Hi everyone,

Finished setting up my new Hackintosh last week, but today when trying to access a file- the computer crashed. When booting back up I recieved this error before eventually entering Chameleon:

Bios Error?.jpg

(The hatched background is from the LoginToLion Chameleon theme- not the OSX Login)

I've taken a look online, but I haven't been able find anything helpful to try, as I can't seem to boot into OSX even using '-x'. After this screen, Chameleon comes up, with the usual boot options- but pressing enter on Macintosh HD, just causes the same loop, and I end up back at Chameleon. Not sure what else to try! I'm at a bit of a loss here.

Spec is:
Core i3 3220
8GB Kingston ValueRAM, clocked at 1600mhz
Gigabye GA-H61M-HD2
PNY 9800GT 512MB
1TB Western Digital Green Drive
Xigmatek 400W Bronze PSU
Zalman ZM-T2 Case

Any advice or suggestions would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks in advance

EBIOS read error: Media Error- H61M-HD2/i3 3220/9800GT (SOLVED?)

For future reference, in a desperate effort to diagnose the issue- I took out the graphics card, and attempted to boot with the integrated HD2500 graphics. On restarting, I got no EBIOS read error- and the computer went on to the Apple Logo. I've now replaced the 9800GT with a GT210- discarded NVEnabler, Added GraphicsEnabler=No to the boot.plist and the problem appears to be gone now!

Again, I hope this helps someone in future.
